Patient Comfort Assessment Guide & Keeping a Pain Diary
If you suffer from chronic pain, it might be a good idea to fill out the
assessment form and take it with you when you next see your doctor. Keeping a
pain and medication diary enhances communication with their caregivers,
encourages adherence to the medication dosage schedule and documents their
progress. Diary use by patients is recommended.
