What Better Persistent Pain Care Actually Looks Like | Dr Nardia Klem
Episode 131
Sunday, 29 March, 2026
In this episode, we explore questions such as:Why does pain persist despite multiple high-quality treatments?What does it actually mean to say pain is multifaceted, and how should that change clinical decision making?How should clinicians communicate about pain in a way that is accurate, validating, and actionable?What should clinics stop doing, start doing, and measure if they want to improve care?In this episode, we speak with Dr Nardia-Rose Klem, a physiotherapist and research academic at Curtin University whose work focuses on young people living with persisting pain, particularly the relationship between pain, mental wellbeing, and access to appropriate care. She is involved in several important clinical translation and public education initiatives, including young painHEALTH, painHEALTH, and the Musculoskeletal Clinical Translation Framework, all of which aim to improve the way pain and musculoskeletal conditions are understood, communicated, and managed. Her research spans young people with chronic musculoskeletal pain, co-existing mental health conditions, pain care experiences, and qualitative work exploring patient experiences across musculoskeletal healthcare contexts.
