Wong-Baker FACES Pain Rating Scale
The Wong-Baker FACES Pain Rating Scale is a tool used to help people express their pain level, especially in children or those who may struggle with traditional scales. It features a series of faces, each depicting a different level of pain, ranging from a happy face (no pain) to a crying face (worst pain). Users can point to the face that best represents how they feel, making it easier for caregivers and healthcare providers to understand and assess their pain. This visual scale fosters communication about pain in a simple and effective manner.
