title: Do you give poor care to patients in pain?
abstract: You'll need strategies to improve care of patients who request pain medications frequently. Use care plans to ensure that patients with conditions such as sickle cell disease will have medications given immediately. Use written agreements to discourage drug-seeking patients. Have a system to alert ED staff to a patient's existing pain management plan.
