Abstract

This article is part of a series, Supporting Family Caregivers: No Longer Home Alone, published in collaboration with the AARP Public Policy Institute. Results of focus groups, conducted as part of the AARP Public Policy Institute's No Longer Home Alone video project, supported evidence that family caregivers aren't given the information they need to manage the complex care regimens of family members. This series of articles and accompanying videos aims to help nurses provide caregivers with the tools they need to manage their family member's health care at home. This new group of articles provides practical information nurses can share with family caregivers of persons living with pain. To use this series, nurses should read the articles first, so they understand how best to help family caregivers. Then they can refer caregivers to the informational tear sheet-Information for Family Caregivers-and instructional videos, encouraging them to ask questions. For additional information, see Resources for Nurses. Cite this article as: Horgas, A.L., et al. Assessing Pain in Older Adults. Am J Nurs 2022; 122 (12): 42-48.

摘要

这篇文章是与美国退休人员协会公共政策研究所合作出版的“支持家庭护理者：不再独自在家”系列文章的一部分。作为美国退休人员协会公共政策研究所“不再独自在家”视频项目的一部分进行的焦点小组的结果证实，家庭护理者没有得到他们管理家庭成员复杂护理方案所需的信息。本系列文章和配套视频旨在帮助护士为护理者提供在家管理其家庭成员医疗保健所需的工具。这组新文章提供了护士可以与患有疼痛的人一起与家庭护理者分享的实用信息。要使用本系列文章，护士应先阅读这些文章，以便他们了解如何最好地帮助家庭护理者。然后，他们可以向护理者推荐信息传单——家庭护理者信息，并鼓励他们提出问题。如需更多信息，请参见护士资源。引用本文：Horgas，A.L.等人。评估老年人的疼痛。美国护理杂志 2022；122（12）：42-48。
