The proposed Nova Scotia Chronic Pain Collaborative Care Network (NSCPCCN) is a professional development partnership between family physicians and chronic pain and addiction specialists designed to build capacity in the health care system and provide improved pain management to patients. The NSCPCCN will provide community physicians with access to chronic pain and addiction specialists to assist in the management of patients with chronic pain. The current project is designed as a pilot project to determine the feasibility of this program on a large scale. In order to determine the effect of implementation of a mentor- mentee network in the primary care setting, a pilot project will be undertaken to determine the feasibility and logistics of the NSCPCCN.
