Additional Information:
The Acute Pain Service (AOS) is Canberra Hospital and Health Services (CHHS) inpatient service for post-operative pain management.
This service is managed by a multidisciplinary team that provide consultant services across the campus covering all inpatient clinical areas.
Studies have shown that if acute pain is not appropriately managed and expeditiously treated, then a small percentage may develop chronic (persistent) pain.
The Chronic Pain Service
Chronic Pain is identified by pain that persists for more than 3 months following its onset and is referred to as chronic or persistent pain.
Chronic Pain affects all aspects of a persons life, and this service aims to reduce the impact through a multidisciplinary approach. Research has shown that this approach is an effective way of assisting patients to manage chronic pain.

Once your referral has been received, it will be triaged and allocated an urgency category. This urgency category provides an indication to the administrative staff as to how soon you will require an appointment.
Appointments are conducted in the Central Outpatients Department, which is located near the Main Reception Desk on Level 1 of the hospital.
Canberra Hospital is a tertiary teaching hospital and therefore students within the specialty may be in attendance during your appointment.
