Are You in Pain? Speak Up!

Horizons in Hemophilia, February 2010

By Penny Kumpf, RN, VWD Outreach Nurse

Speak Up ™ is a patient safety initiative developed by The Joint Commission and the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services. This national campaign urges patients to take a role in preventing health care errors by becoming active, involved and informed participants within their own health care team. The information on this website: http://www.jointcommission.org/PatientSafety/SpeakUp/Speak_up_pain_managment.htm
can help you have a conversation with your medical provider about pain control. It provides guidelines on what to ask your provider during your appointment time.
