Repost: Building Bridges in Pediatric Pain Care with Dr. Jennifer Stinson

In this week's episode of Action on Pain, we revisit our conversation with Dr. Jennifer Stinson, a nurse clinician-scientist and leading pediatric pain expert from SickKids Hospital in Toronto. The discussion highlights innovative tools, digital resources, and educational programs designed to improve equitable access and outcomes for children and youth living with chronic pain in Canada. Dr. Stinson emphasizes the importance of early intervention, patient empowerment, and interdisciplinary collaboration, while addressing challenges such as stigma, diagnostic uncertainty, and long wait times for specialized care.
