PAIN MEDICINE

Mednet Australia is affiliated with the Combined Pain Medicine Team at Southern Health through its personnel being involved both in public and private practice in providing services to the Pain Team.

 

In 2010, Mednet provided the first Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy course for a group patients from the Pain Medicine Clinic with co-morbid depression.

 

We hope to further developed a hybrid model of MBCT and MBSR (Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction) originally developed by Dr. Jon Kabat Zin in collaboration with Southern Synergy in 2011.

 

Furthermore, we will expand on our current programme of ABCCAT by incorporating standardised CBT modules for pain management (as well as management of fatigue in Renal Failure) in 2011. This is expected to facilitate the ready use of CBT techniques for these co-morbid patients (patients with a chronic physical illness and depression) by trained nurses in future.
