Resources
The Faculty has a wide range of resources aimed primarily at its members, i.e., Fellows and Trainees, but also available to the public interested in Pain Medicine or the practice of Pain Medicine.
The College Library can be used by Members to access a wide range of specialist books and publications and Archival facilities that preserve the rich history of the Faculty and the profession.
The College actively encourages research in the area of anaesthesia, intensive care and Pain Medicine. Each year the College reviews research applications and awards research grants to promote the advancement of the specialty.
The Faculty also maintains a series of Professional Documents and Educational Documents for use by Pain Medicine specialists to assist them in their practice.
Patient information material on aspects of
interventional Pain Medicine has been developed for use by Fellows in the informed consent process
and to provide information to patients.
The Faculty Regulations, by contrast, outline the administrative and operational policies and procedures of the Faculty and cover the broad range of activities for which the Facultyis responsible, e.g., the training program, election to fellowship, awards and scholarships, regional committees, annual general meetings.
The section also contains list of publications of interest to Pain Medicine specialists and a comprehensive list of acronyms to help identify the many interest groups, organisations and abbreviations used in the profession.
