       The Numerical Pain Scale is a useful tool when
        assessing pain. It is based on a scale of 0-10.

A ladder starts from the ground and escalates to
the highest point, so does pain start from 0-10.

It is important to do a pain assessment after pain
medication has been given. See image for more
information.
