Who it's for
PainChek® Universal enables best-practice pain management for all people, everywhere. This includes those who cannot verbalise their pain, those who can self-report, and those who fluctuate between the two.
The PainChek® App is clinically proven to improve pain assessment and treatment for people with moderate to severe dementia in aged care. Our cloud-based digital tool is available to professional carers in residential aged care facilities or home care settings. PainChek® Universal also includes access to the Numerical Rating Scale, one of the top recommended rating scales for those who can self-report their pain.

Managing Pain, Improving Lives: Real Stories
Discovering the stories of those involved with managing pain
Pain affects people in different ways. It is a complex experience and one which often requires the involvement of many people when in an aged care setting. Connecting these stories and understanding the perspective of all those involved and affected by pain, empowers the care sector to join forces and look at pain in a holistic way, ensuring the best care can be provided to those in need, especially when they don’t have the ability to reliably self-report their pain themselves.
Case studies
PainChek® has facilitated 20 million clinical assessments in aged care, enabling best-practice pain management across more than 1,900+ facilities worldwide. Residents have benefitted from better pain assessment and management as a result of improved care outcomes in the form of decreased acute pain and improved quality of life.
