Feedback:
Although obtaining a pain rating, documenting the assessment, and asking the child's parents about the pain are important, the most important aspect of pain assessment is to use the same tool each time so that appropriate comparisons can be made and effective interventions can be planned and implemented. Consistency allows the most accurate assessment of the child's pain.
