| Abstrakt: | There are 120,000 pediatric burn injuries annually in the United States (Center for Research Injury and Policy [CRIP], 2010). Although many pediatric thermal injuries are not severe, referral to a burn unit for any burn regardless of depth, size, location, or severity is common. Many patients with smaller burns can be effectively managed in a community hospital, which allows children and their families to remain close to home, reducing costs and some stress associated with hospital stays. This article describes the process of creating a community pediatric burn care program at St. John Hospital in Detroit, Michigan, and initial outcomes of the program. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
