Winner Introduces New Pain Assessment Tool at The Miriam
Our 2018 winner was recognized for her research to validate a better pain assessment tool that helps ensure that patients are not over- or under-medicated. Miriam nurses now assess pain using this tool. Shortly after her research, The Joint Commission recommended this assessment for use in health care settings. Her work exemplifies The Miriam Hospital nursing commitment to improving patient care through innovation.
