Chronic pain is among the problems of old people and causes changes in their life patterns and processes.
Elderly persons with chronic pain can live active lives by learning palliative care. The purpose of this study was to ascertain the effects of palliative care education on the daily routines of older women with chronic pain. The current study was carried out on 30 older women with chronic pain in Iran in 2018 using a quasi-experimental design with pre-and post-tests. Before the intervention, a questionnaire to assess the older population's pattern of life with pain was completed. A group education program on palliative care was then used, and the questionnaire was then refilled immediately as well as one and three months afterward.
The mean changes before teaching palliative care were significantly different from those immediately following the educational program, as well as one and three months later (p = 0.0), respectively (p = 0.004). The stages immediately after the educational program, those occurring one month later, and those occurring three months later all differed significantly (p = 0.001, p = 0.002) from one another. Between the stage immediately following the educational program and those before the intervention and three months after it, there were statistically significant variations in the personal life patterns (p = 0.005, p = 0.000).
