Pain Management

Your comfort is priority at Silver Cross Hospital. Your caregivers will frequently ask about your pain to ensure a high level of comfort using the pain scale shown below. Be sure to openly discuss any pain you may be feeling with your caregivers and request pain relief when the pain first begins so we can determine how well your treatment is working and if changes need to be made.
