Creating an Interprofessional Clinic

Indianapolis, Indiana is home to the Comprehensive Pain Assessment Clinic, CoPAC for short. CoPAC is a place where patients who have dealt with chronic pain can be referred to receive recommendations about to best deal with their issues. What makes CoPAC unique is that the patients are seen by more than one specialist at a time.  Their teams consist of practitioners from nursing, medical, social work, physical therapy, and more. 

In this episode, Kelsey Binion, Dr. April D. Newton, and Dr. Deanna Willis will take us through creating this clinic and how it benefits patients,  practitioners, and students.
