If you can't stand the heat...put a BURN kit in your kitchen!
Did you know that the overwhelming majority of burns occur at home and are mostly due to cooking? Accidents are in second place, followed by faulty wiring, both in residents and the workplace.
There is a ton of misinformation on how to treat burn injuries, much of which can do more harm than good! Burns essentially heat the epidermis (skin) much like a frypan cooks a steak. Therefore, the advice to "put a little butter on it" is no better than sauteeing a ribeye! Our kit contains Waterjel dressing, which immediately takes the heat out of the burninstead. It also includes gauze pads for more serious burns, and a Mylar blanket to treat for shock for the most dangerous and extensive of emergencies. Best of all, our training classes cover burn-related injuries- see our Training Calendar for a class near you!
