No one should experience untreated pain. Yet, in Canada, two out of three children experience painful procedures without any pain management, and one in five live with pain that lasts months to years that prevents them from everyday activities.

It is with great sadness that we share about the recent passing of Gilbert Kewistep. He was a Traditional Knowledge Keeper who informed many SHA improvement activities and worked on projects with SaskPain. We are grateful for Gilbert's generosity with his wisdom and kindness.

Oral health and chronic pain are closely linked - persistent mouth pain can affect your ability to eat, speak, and enjoy life. Over 1 in 4 Canadians experience oral pain, and individuals with chronic conditions or disabilities are disproportionately affected.

Women are more likely to experience chronic pain than men, yet their pain is often underdiagnosed. Conditions like endometriosis and chronic pelvic pain disproportionately affect women. Learn more from the Centre of Excellence for Women’s Health: cewh.ca
