This descriptive study used an adopted questionnaire administered to 50 randomly selected nurses working in the home care setting. It aimed not only to determine the extent of the nurse's skill in assessing the physiologic and behavioral pain responses of nonverbally communicative patients with disorders of consciousness but also to identify encountered problems influencing their skill to assess pain. The study found that majority of the nurse respondents working in the homecare setting were moderately skilled. Highly skilled in assessing the vital sign chagnes associated with pain while moderately skilled in assessing the autonomic pain responses. On the other hand, they are moderately skilled in assessing behavioral responses to pain in terms of facial and motor responses while highly skilled in assessing for sound production or ventilation compliance among patients with an artificial airway. The extent of their skill could be associated with the influence of the moderately serious problems that they encountered during pain assessment. the action plan and measures proposed to enhance the nurses' skill in the pain assessment was based on their identified deficiencies.
