Join us for Manifestations of Pain:

Jewish Senior Life proudly sponsors Manifestations of Pain: Healthcare professionals should regularly evaluate if interventions are meeting the pain management and function goals established with the patient. We will explore how to evaluate patient’s knowledge and beliefs about pain, including cultural influences, pain's impact on quality of life (e.g., sleep, appetite, activity, cognition, mood, relationships, job performance, and role responsibilities), and the effectiveness of past pain control measure. We will learn how to assess the patient's level of pain to allow comfort and appropriate functioning and attempt to keep pain at or lower than that identified level. We will discuss environmental factors that may influence the patient’s pain experience, and learn to select and implement intervention options tailored to the patient’s risks, benefit, and preferences (e.g., pharmacological, non-pharmacological, interpersonal) to facilitate pain relief.

Speaker: Linda "Andi" Chapman, RN, CDP, CDDPCT
