Prepare to pass the ASPMN credentialing exam and to successfully work with patients in pain using The Core Curriculum for Pain Management Nursing, 3rd Edition. Written by the American Society of Pain Management Nurses (the primary nursing organization in pain management), this easy-to-read text covers the entire scope of pain management in a user-friendly outline format. This new edition has been thoroughly updated to reflect the latest standards and scope of practice put forth by the ASPMN. Yet, it still retains its strong nursing focus as it explores the your role as a patient advocate in pain management and how that role changes from a Registered Nurse to a Clinical Nurse Specialist to a Nurse Practitioner. Both pharmacologic and non-pharmacologic methods of pain management are discussed as is a wide variety of patient subsets beyond the traditional pediatric, adult, and geriatric patient.
