What Your Colleagues Say:


As clinicians, we strive to provide all our patients the highest quality of care.

As healthcare providers and clinicians, we are committed to providing the highest quality of care to all our patients. None of us want our patients to suffer unnecessarily, and we want to treat everyone fairly. Yet, studies have documented racial inequities in pain care for Black patients for almost every condition, and setting. Latino patients, women, low income patients, and patients with obesity are also at higher risk of inadequate pain management.

The purpose of this learning experience is to equip you with the essential knowledge and tools needed to ensure that every patient receives the quality of pain treatment we would all want for ourselves and our loved ones.

This learning experience is rooted in rigorous peer-reviewed research and brought to life by composites of real life scenarios from patients and clinicians.
