Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Asking the patient to rate their pain on a scale of mild, moderate or severe will help you gather information about the intensity of their pain. This information is important for determining appropriate treatment. Asking about meal content, relying on family members' opinions, or giving drugs without understanding the severity of the pain are not helpful in gathering information about the patient's pain.
