The combination of lack of knowledge and disassociation
results in staff attempting to avoid the issue of pain, with
the effect of discouraging patients from seeking help.
A key element in the role of the specialist pain nurse is
maintaining open lines of communication between all staff
and role clarity in pain management provision (Brown and
McCormack, 2006). The specialist pain nurse will actively
encourage patients to take a role in their pain management
and this, in turn, can lead to improved patient satisfaction
(Manias et al, 2006; Idvall et al, 2008). According to Clarke
and Iphofen (2005), nurses’ belief in patients’ reports of pain
improves trust and enables the nurse to empower the patient
in managing their pain.
