The research aims to identify the application of nursing care for acute pain by providing warm compresses to a patient with the initials Ny.W, who experienced abnormal pain in the Lavender ward at Kardinah Regional Hospital, Tegal City. This study applied a descriptive design. Data were collected through several stages, including anamnesis (gathering of medical history), direct observation, physical assessment, and documentation.
