| Annotation | In recognising the likely relevance of this booklet to older people suffering chronic pain, the Sir Halley Stewart Trust provided a grant to the researchers. Content has been influenced by results of a research study, 'Pain management by older people: a qualitative study', which was carried out by the Clinical Research Centre for Health Professions at the University of Brighton, in collaboration with two pain management centres in Sussex. 63 people aged over 60 took part and were interviewed in their own homes regarding how they cope with chronic pain in everyday life. The first part of this booklet, a brief overview of the issues and difficulties around managing chronic pain, was compiled by the research team. The second part contains hints and guidelines which were gathered from the study's participants and their partners or carers. (RH). |
