title: The manager and pain control for patients.
abstract: Every day seems to bring new demands for health services managers, even though none of the existing expectations seems to end. But, an effective pain management program is basic to meeting patient needs and is driven by patients' judgments and demands. It remains for HSOs and their managers to determine the means by which patients' judgments and demands will be met.
