Providing information about your pain to help us develop a plan to manage your pain. This includes reporting any history of chronic pain and any pain relief therapies used.
Discussing pain relief options with your health care team to develop a pain management plan.
Asking for pain relief, if needed, when pain first begins.
Helping us assess your pain.
Telling us if your pain is not relieved.
Telling us about any worries you have about taking pain medication.
Discussing with us any specific cultural, spiritual and personal beliefs associated with pain relief measures
