NH's Well-Being Action Network

NH's Well-Being Action Network Here you can learn about chronic pain management and learning programs that are offered in NH

Southern NH AHEC and Northern New Hampshire AHEC collaborate to offer various Self-Management Programs. The Chronic Disease Self-Management Program, also known as "Better Choices, Better Health," is a six-week program that runs for 2 ½ hours each week in community settings, senior centers, and physicians offices. People with different chronic health problems attend the program together. Workshops

are facilitated by two trained leaders, one or both of whom are non-health professionals (referred to as lay leaders) with chronic diseases themselves. The Chronic Pain Self-Management Program was developed for people who have a diagnosis of chronic pain. Pain is described as being chronic or long term when it lasts for longer than 3 to 6 months, or beyond normal healing time. Like the Better Choices Better Health program, it is conducted over six weeks in 2 1/2 hour sessions held once a week and facilitated by 2 trained Leaders.
