Join us for a webinar on 20th April 2021 at 3pm AEST
This webinar addresses the issue of the implementation of patient-centered care into clinical practice. While the biopsychosocial model has been around for more than four decades and is widely accepted, uptake of this model by healthcare professionals in clinical practice remains an issue.
The webinar will summarise the findings of the first qualitative systematic review that synthesizes whole-of-health evidence to better contextualise interdependencies that impact the adoption of the biopsychosocial model, from the perspective of healthcare professionals working in musculoskeletal pain settings. This has relevance to clinicians, case managers, RTW coordinators and policymakers. The webinar will cover the following
