1 -- Identifying barriers to the pain control treatment plan can help with the development of assessment tools and educational materials to help with compliance on pain control. The nurse is not attempting to question the patient’s admission or stay in the hospital, to decide if the patient is being argumentative, or if the patient should leave the hospital against medical advice.
