| description | Conclusion: Despite clinical guidelines recommending a biopsychosocial model of care, the biomedical model remains the dominant approach in chronic pain management, reflecting a persistent gap between evidence and practice. Service users and providers desire access to multidisciplinary services that support a biopsychosocial model of care. Healthcare professionals cannot deliver what service users expect due to macro-, meso- and microlevel factors. Future research is needed to explore practical solutions to deliver pain services that optimise the development of self-management skills where existing infrastructure and resources negatively impact service delivery. Suggested approaches include enhancing autonomy-supportive communication by healthcare providers and ensuring early access to high-quality educational materials. |
