Student Testimonial - 1st year MSc in Pain Management student (2007/2008)
"I have found this course very exciting.  The mixture of discussion and case studies made the learning very effective.  The course is very flexible.  I have been able to learn at a time that suits me.  As the course is very intense, time management is paramount.  There are a number of professionals on the course from diverse backgrounds and I have learned from my peers also.  The Pain Management course is inspiring and, in my opinion, how learning should be - student centred."

Student Testimonial - Msc in Pain Management graduate (2008)
"During the programme I worked as a chronic pain nurse specialist in Australia.  In this, I dealt with chronic pain patients in an out-patient setting.  I triaged referrals, assisted patient enquiries, arranged procedural interventions and educated the patients in the three week pain management programme and general running of the clinic.  Since graduation, I have returned to Dublin.  I have started in a private hospital and they want me to establish the acute pain service and manage staff and patient education and ultimately establish a specialised pain management clinic."
