Chronic pain is associated with significant disability and costs to the United States (U.S.) economy. Military personnel and veterans experience higher rates of chronic pain than the general population. The objective of this applied doctoral project was to examine the experiences, thoughts, and perceptions of male and female veterans and health care providers with Step 1 (Self-Care) of the Veterans' Administration Stepped Care Model for Pain Management (SCM-PM). Using Appreciative Inquiry, this project sought to gain an understanding of what brings life to patients and providers involved in treatment using self-care through the SCM-PM and thus may be a catalyst for change and improvement. Three objectives for this project were established: (a) identify what is working well within the SCM-PM, (b) determine if improvements could be made in respect to aspects of self-care for chronic pain management, and (c) bring awareness of those factors that influence health behavior change to military veterans and decision makers. A purpose sample of seven patients and providers who have taken part in the SCM-PM were interviewed. Findings revealed that holistic patient-centered care that included CAM therapies prescribed by providers and having convenient access to needed resources is important to Veterans living with chronic pain. Strong, trustworthy support systems and open communication with providers who listen was reported as the most critical factor in determining whether Veterans actively and consistently engaged in self-care modalities for their chronic pain symptoms. Future studies should examine availability and accessibility of self-care resources for Veterans including the use of medical marijuana. Future studies may need to consider the influence that federal regulations and funding have on the SCM-PM and how these entities or factors may inhibit or support self-care for Veterans living with chronic pain.
