Development of a National Pain Management Competency Profile to Guide Entry-level Physiotherapy Education in Canada

Background: National strategies from North America call for substantive improvements in entry-level pain management education to help reduce the burden of chronic pain.

Past work has generated a valuable set of interprofessional pain management competencies to guide the education of future health professionals. However, there has been very limited work that has explored the development of such competencies for individual professions in different regions. Developing profession-specific competencies tailored to the local context is a necessary first step to integrate them within local regulatory systems. Our group is working toward this goal within the context of entry-level physiotherapy (PT) programs across Canada. Aims: This study aimed to create a consensus-based competency profile for pain management, specific to the Canadian PT context Methods: A modified Delphi was used to achieve consensus across Canadian university-based and clinical pain educators. Results: Representatives from 14 entry-level PT programs (93% of Canadian programs) and six clinical educators were recruited. After two rounds, a total of 15 competencies reached the pre-determined endorsement threshold (75%). Most participants (85%) reported being “very satisfied” with the process. Conclusions: This process achieved consensus on a novel pain management competency profile specific to the Canadian PT context. The resulting profile delineates the necessary abilities required by physiotherapists to manage pain upon entry-to-practice. Participants were very satisfied with the process. This study also contributes to the emerging literature on integrated research in pain management by profiling research methodology that can be used to inform related work in other health professions and regions.Nathan AugeardGeoff BostickJordan MillerDavid WaltonYannick Tousignant-LaflammeAnne HudonAndré BussièresLynn CooperNicol McNivenAliki ThomasLesley SingerScott M.
