Pain is one of the most common reasons people need care, and it is also one of the most under-recognised and under-treated symptoms in health and social care. This course is written for care and support workers, healthcare assistants and nurses who support people experiencing pain.
It covers the types of pain, how to assess pain using rating scales and observation, pharmacological and non-pharmacological approaches including the WHO analgesic ladder, and the care worker’s role in recording, communicating and escalating concerns about pain.
