Abstract
Improving pain control for elderly patients, particularly elderly patients with dementia, is still very much a peripheral focus of gerontological health care, despite the prevalence of pain-related chronic conditions in this population. Barriers that impede pain control efforts are identified. Recommendations for more effective pain assessment and intervention practices are presented.
