Pain Management

Pain management is a practical guide to current best practice in pain management. It assumes no prior knowledge and provides students and newly qualified staff with the knowledge and skills required to care for a person experiencing or at risk of experiencing pain. It adopts a chronological approach, using case studies to illustrate the essential clinical skills required to management pain effectively, and challenges nurses to reflect upon their practice in order to update and improve their clinical practice.
