We use the FLACC Scale available at http://homepage.mac.com/david.herd/research/Projects/page82/page134/files/FLACCSCALE.pdf
We have also worked with the PAINAD scale for dementia patients, available at http://web.missouri.edu/~proste/tool/cog/painad.pdf

We find the PainAd scale is useful for non-verbal adults, and the FLACC scale for children.
