Abstract

Pain management in nursing home residents (NHR) is insufficient. Hence, this guidance summarizes latest research results and guidelines of particular requirements on treatment of pain in the elderly. The purpose is to improve health care processes and outcomes on individual and institutional level. To reach this aim a multidisciplinary collaboration is essential. The prerequisite for adequate pain treatment is to conduct a standardized pain assessment. Likewise, the application of all opportunities of non-medical pain treatment strategies contributes to the reduction of occurrence of pain and therefore to the preservation of quality of life in NHR. Age-related changes in physiology may affect tolerance and effects of analgesics. Besides, drug interactions need to be considered. After all, education of NHR and involvement of their relatives in pain management foster successful management and treatment of pain.
