Background & Aims

Knowing that the pain is a major stressors facing outpatients and hospitalized patients in all health facility all over the world, that is why pain control must be important in the management of patients because untreated pain has a detrimental impact on the patient’s quality of life or his behavior even in long term. Me as Nurse, I want to emphasize the importance of the pain control during the treatment of our patients, because it plays the important goal vitality and psychologically to our customers and we have to know that untreated pain will have detrimental impacts on the patient’s hopelessness, that negatively affect their quality of life. I want that all the nurses must have positive attitude toward pain management for our patients

Methods

Several studies have described the barriers to delivery of an effective pain management. Limited knowledge and negative attitude of nurses toward pain management were reported as major obstacles in the implementation of an effective pain management.[3] Nurses may have a negative perception, attitude, and misconception toward pain management.
There is inconsistency, however, between practice and attitude, which suggests that nurses may have positive attitude toward pain management but does not have adequate knowledge to manage pain correctly and completely [5]

Results

This is my own experience as nurse. I have worked in patients for more than 15 years, many patients with chronic diseases and some on palliative care treatment. So I am experienced in the pain management and the patients treatment as nurse . that is why my slogan is ”Dear Customer, your pain is my pain”. This helped me to be with patients as their relatives because they saw me as their own, as one of them. This is a very good experience that do not need strong research but practices

Conclusions

Here there is the big importance of the pain control during the treatment of our patients, because it plays the important vitality goal and psychologically good behavior toward treatments to our customers. And all nurses must have positive attitude toward pain management for the patients
