Fire Safety Educational Resources
From the American Burn Association, these are some invaluable educational presentations on Burn Safety. Each program includes general background information, fact sheets,
PowerPoint presentations and presenter scripts that can easily be
implemented at the local level. An introduction and overview of burn injury,
along with guidelines for working with the public and the media, are also
included to assist in educational initiatives. Some of the PowerPoint files are very large, so please be patient while they download.
