Canadian Headache Society
In 2010, a group of canadian experts, The Canadian Headache Society, have designed a strategy to structure migraine care in Canada.
We published guidelines to help physicians to manage migraine based on published evidence.
These guidelines are important documents to focus future interventions designed to improve access to care for migraineurs in Canada.
You can access the guidelines from the Canadian Headache Society website
Pharmacists can also find useful documents from our library.
Mastermind
Physicians receive little training on migraine in medical school. The Canadian Headache Society (CHS) has developed an accredited online-learning platform on advancing migraine management in primary care. The program has been certified by the College of Family physicians of Canada. All physicians in Canada are required to complete a certain number of accredited learning each year!
The mastermind self-learning program has been certified by the College of Family Physicians of Canada for up to 8 Mainpro+ credits.
This program was supported in part by an unrestricted educational grant from Allergan (an Abbvie company), Eli Lilly Canada, Novartis Pharmaceuticals Canada and Teva Canada.
