   However, the size of the institution will dictate the extent of the pain service, according to Dr. Darin J. Correll, Regional Anesthesia Fellow at Thomas Jefferson University Hospital and a member of Jefferson Medical College's Acute Pain Management Division. "You don't need to have a formal pain service," he explains, "but you need to have something in place." The foundation of any pain service, he says, is the same - a supervising anesthesiologist, and an advanced practice nurse who serves as the backbone and primary educator for nurses throughout the hospital. Overall, he says, the successful pain service is a multidisciplinary endeavor, and requires efforts from anesthesiologists, surgeons, nurses and administrators.
