Patient Satisfaction

Pain Management:
How well was patients’ pain controlled?

If patients needed medicine for pain during their hospital stay, the feedback survey asked how well their pain was kept under control. “Pain was well controlled” means their pain was well controlled and that the hospital staff did everything they could to help patients with their pain.

Bars below tell what percent of patients said their pain was “always” well controlled.
