The Guideline for Pain Management for Hospice Care was developed by the National Department of Health in December, 2000. The purpose of this study was to explore the efficacy of the Guideline in Taiwan and to compare the satisfaction of the physicians and nurses working at hospice units and non-hospice units. One hundred and thirty-nine participants were recruited, including 112 nurses and 27 physicians. The results indicated that there was a significant difference between the people working at hospice and non-hospice units based on having known or read the Guideline ofPain Management. Second1y, it was found that those who had received hospice training program reported significantly higher levels of satisfaction for the Guideline of Pain Management than those who had not received hospice training program. Thirdly, the physicians and nurses reported the mean score of satisfaction in the Guideline of Pain Management was 3.94 (SD=.79). Finally, most of the physicians and nurses would like to modify the size of Guideline of Pain Management to a smaller size in order to keep it stand by.
