"I feel that pain is not just a physical complaint. It effects every aspect of life - psychosocial, economical, spiritual and physical. I listen carefully and try to understand individual stories of pain. Then I work with the patient to see how some ¬(but probably not all) of that pain can be alleviated." - Cheryl McKinlay, APNP
