Does anyone know of any resources for guiding nurses in pain assessment in telephone triage? I did a quick lit search, and I see a lot of articles about pain assessment in telehealth- but seem to be referring to being on video- where the clinical provider can see the patient. But I couldn't find anything specific to pain assessment in telephone triage.
