Understanding and addressing children’s pain

Leora Kuttner’s book focuses on how health professionals can approach children’s pain while helping children make sense of and cope with it. Alongside pain relief, it considers the fears and anxieties that can accompany treatment and addresses communication: how professionals can speak with children in ways intended to ease those concerns. The scope is interdisciplinary, for professionals working with children across health-care settings, and links practical communication skills with the broader task of treating pediatric pain.
