Full-Day and Half-Day ProgramsThe Comprehensive Pain Management Program at Marianjoy is a full day program that has been in existence for over 20 years and is the only CARF-accredited interdisciplinary pain program in Illinois. This 21-day outpatient program focuses on helping people manage chronic pain so they can be restored to a lifestyle of function and mobility. Morning Solutions for Pain Management is a new program at Marianjoy that is less intense than the full day comprehensive program. Patients still come to Oakbrook Terrace for 21 days, but they spend only one half of the day in the program. Some people choose this program so they can continue to work at least part time. Marianjoy’s pain programs benefit from the dedicated clinicians who make up the interdisciplinary team, including: a physiatrist who is board-certified in pain management, physical therapists who specialize in pain management, a psychologist, a nurse educator, a biofeedback specialist, and a case manager. As a team, the staff works with each individual to design a plan that addresses their unique experience with chronic pain. One of the key features of our program is using a holistic approach to focus on the patient’s personal goals. Each patient admitted for care is assigned an integrated care team made up of physicians, specially trained therapists, nurses, and psychologists. The team works in coordination with the patient and family to evaluate not only the patient’s pain, but also the impact that the pain has on the whole person – body, mind and spirit. |
