520 _aPeople with multiple disabilities should be considered as a whole, with no separation between body and mind. Despite these patients’ frequent difficulties or inability to verbalize, listening to them is of great importance, as well as understanding their suffering and discovering its hidden content. Healthcare workers have to integrate pain in the global context of the person, and to treat the cause whenever possible. Therapeutic objectives have to be established to prevent the occurrence of pain, rather than to wait for its manifestation. Disease should not be the enemy, but a partner to be tamed.
