We recently had a wonderful visit from Daisy, one of the amazing therapy dogs! 🐾 One of our adolescents was thrilled to meet her and, as part of his programme, enjoyed taking Daisy for a walk around our accessible garden. Moments like these highlight how we incorporate patients’ interests and values into their rehabilitation programme.

We love to see the meaningful relationships patients form, using the weeks to not only engage with the programme but create memories and connections that continue after they have left us.

Our latest supported adults organised their own craft evening to prepare for the festive season. One of their projects was these wonderful Christmas gonks they made from scratch, with a little guidance from one of our healthcare assistants.

Thank you to everyone involved for bringing joy and festive cheer to the programme!🎄🎁

During their evenings on programme, some of our recent self managed adult group got creative and made some amazing artwork. An important part of rehabilitation here is encouraging people to share their talent and passion and reconnect to what is meaningful to them. We are so thankful they allowed us to share their work both in the building and on our platform.

A huge congratulations to the group for their amazing efforts and for reminding us that rehabilitation is about more than just physical progress.

At BCPS, we believe pain management should be accessible to everyone, including those with complex or severe disabilities.

This International Day for Persons with Disabilities, we thought we would share more information about how we ensure that all our patients are able to benefit from a safe and inclusive environment.

We at BCPS are unique in terms of pain rehabilitation services as we are lucky to benefit from our national purpose-built facilities. This includes our disability-adapted rooms, large treatment spaces and our relevant equipment. This means we are one of the only services able to accommodate those with higher levels of disability

We also have an amazing team of Health Care Assistants who provide 24-hour support to all of our patients.

November is CRPS Awareness Month, and at BCPS, we are proud to be part of the movement to raise awareness and understanding of Complex Regional Pain Syndrome.

By sharing our knowledge, we aim to empower healthcare professionals to better support people living with CRPS.

During this month, we had the opportunity to present to physiotherapists in Lincolnshire, helping to spread understanding and confidence in recognising and managing this condition.

🌿This self care week is about taking care of your mind and body.🫶

At BCPS, we recognise how crucial this is for overall wellbeing but also understand how challenging incorporating self care in day to day life can be, especially for those living with persistent pain.

Throughout our programmes, we promote and support our patients to engage with self care activities that can be sustained during treatment and after.

Therefore, our clinicians have shared some of their self care tips that have been particularly useful for patients living with chronic pain.✨

💬 What’s your go-to self care activity when you’re having a tough day?

🌟Recently at BCPS, we had the opportunity to run a team day that allowed us to take a step back and concentrate on reconnecting as a team and focus on service development. This allowed us to initiate meaningful changes to boost team morale and patient experience on our programmes.

Having the chance to spend time as a whole team reminded us about why we are passionate about what we do. 🤝

"Had I not come I would not have been painting again... You need to come open minded and when you are in the right headspace to get the benefit of the programme"

Last week, one of our former patients came for their follow up and kindly gifted us some of his amazing artwork to help brighten our building.

This is another example of how our programme at BCPS supports people to get back to what is meaningful to them.

Thank you, Terry!

This week marks World Kindness Day and Anti-Bullying Week🫶. At the Bath Centre for Pain Services, we see every day how compassion, understanding, and peer support can make a difference - especially for young people living with persistent pain who can often feel isolated and disbelieved. Using our means standing up for others, showing kindness, and helping create safe, supportive spaces where everyone can thrive. Together, we can use our voices and our actions to make change happen.

"I want to skateboard but I have pain...I have pain and I want to skateboard."

At BCPS, we believe that living with persistent pain doesn’t mean giving up the things that matter. Through our pain rehabilitation programme, we work alongside patients to help them reconnect with what they value - whether that’s skateboarding, studying, or simply spending time with friends.

This is one of our inspiring former patients from the Young Adult Programme, showing that pain and passion can coexist.

Switch your buts for ands.

🎉 Celebrating OT Week in BCPS! 🎉
This week, we honour the incredible work of our Occupational Therapists and their vital role in supporting people living with persistent pain.

💡 OTs in Pain Rehabilitation
Occupational Therapists help individuals reclaim their lives by focusing on what matters most to them. In pain rehabilitation, OTs:
🔹 Empower people to manage pain through meaningful activity
🔹 Promote independence and participation in everyday life- doing the things that matter
🔹 Encourage and collaborate with patients to create routines and healthy habits that stick
🔹 Support patients to work towards having a more sustainable activity level
🔹 Collaborate across disciplines to deliver holistic care

Let’s celebrate the creativity, compassion, and clinical expertise of our OT colleagues this week and every week. 💚
