Abstract

Since patients treated with analgesics at home exist in ever-increasing numbers, and nurses are convinced of the efficacity of the treatment of pain, we are confronted with an urgent need for competent training. This is why, for a little over a year now, nurses have benefitted from theoretical and practical aids, allowing them to work more effectively, be it on the educative, therapeutic, technical and human level, so that patients benefit from a better quality of life and die in comfort and dignity.
