Répertoire des compétences médicales en gestion de la douleur non cancéreuse et en prescription d’opioïdes [Directory of medical competencies for the management of non-cancer pain and opioid prescribing; available in French only]

Institut national de santé publique du Québec (INSPQ)

The INSPQ published, in collaboration with the Collège des médecins du Québec, the Université de Sherbrooke’s Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences and CRAN, a directory of medical competencies for the management of non-cancer pain and opioid prescribing. This project, initiated by the Drug Strategy Community Initiatives Fund (DSCIF), has two objectives: to prepare a status report on medical practice and opioid prescribing and to meet the needs identified in the status report by organizing training for clinical physicians and future physicians.
