The NCRPI has developed programs to support the delivery of excellent clinical services within the NCR and beyond. The following resources are for all the members of the healthcare team utilizing a biopsychosocial model to best treat pain for our DoD beneficiaries. These resources consist of significant CME activities/trainings, available pain treatment tools, associated research, and specialty support services. Some of the more notable projects include: the Annual Pain Care Skills Training, Annual Substance Use Disorder Symposium, Tele-Pain Services, Pain and Opioid Safety Application (available on iPhone & Android), as well as, ongoing research supported by the NCRPI programs.

NCRPI provides continuing education opportunities to providers and other team members through live, Internet-based, and archived conferences, seminars, trainings, and workshops. These resources include the facilitation of Continuing Medical Education (CME) hours and Continuing Nursing Education (CNE) through Navy CME/CNE, only available for DoD employees.
