Some Background Definitions
Individual and Group Differences in Pain
Cultural Influences on Healthcare Professionals’ Response to and Management of Pain
Another Look at Culturally Based Pain Behavior
Healthcare Professional and Patient Interaction
Cultural Influence on Patient Pain Control Beliefs
Become more acutely aware of your own cultural programming
Be aware of how personal stereotypes surrounding patients’ ethnicity or education can influence your evaluation of the degree to which patients are suffering stress or pain
Don’t label patients who demonstrate what you interpret as an exaggerated response to pain as “complainers.
If patients have illnesses or conditions that are normally accompanied by sufficient pain to require medication, don’t simply ask patients if they would like some medical relief
Remember that clinicians commonly under-evaluate pain
Healthcare professionals need to question patients about the presence of pain, as well as encourage them to share their attitudes about pain management and their beliefs about the use of analgesics.
