As we head into fireworks season, emergency care workers may attend an increased number of burn injuries. Health Education England elearning for healthcare (HEE elfh) and the College of Paramedics have developed a Management of Burns for Paramedics elearning module which covers key topics in dealing with burns outside of hospitals. The learning is suitable for all grades of emergency responder.
Written by a paramedic and edited by a burns specialist nurse, 4 interactive and bitesize elearning sessions are accessible on PCs, laptops, iPads and mobile phones. By completing the module, you will achieve a greater understanding of the pathophysiology, assessment and immediate management of burn injuries and contribute to your continuing professional development (CPD).
