“Building Your Toolbox” videoconference series
“Building Your Toolbox” is a monthly educational series that teaches individuals different pain management strategies or skills from an expert. It’s conducted using the Zoom Meeting platform, which allows participants to interact directly with the speaker, see and hear one another. While we encourage you to join via video, you can still participate and benefit from the series without video.
The series is held on the first Tuesday of every month at 7:30 pm ET, and it’s led by a U.S. Pain representative. The event follows a particular format, which includes a welcome message, a brief presentation from a speaker about a specific pain modality, and an open Q&A and discussion with participants.
NOTE: By registering for all or part of this series, you acknowledge and agree to the terms of our waiver.
