Let’s talk about pain
Published: 20 September 2012
Health care assistants and assistant practitioners (HCAs and APs) are invited to attend the RCN’s national conference on the experience and management of patient pain, in London on 12 October.
The conference is being produced by the RCN Pain and Palliative Care Forum, with sessions led by nursing specialists in pain management.
Forum Chair Felicia Cox said: “Managing pain is the responsibility of the whole nursing team. HCAs and APs play an important role in delivering effective pain management and this is a fantastic opportunity for them to develop their role by improving their understanding of why patients experience acute and chronic pain.”
