11 How do I treat burns?

How do I treat burns? Imagine you're at an incident, someone is suffering from severe burns. How could you help them? How long do burns take to heal? We explore this and other questions about burns in the Help Yourself first aid podcast with your paramedic host Tj. Tj has more than 20 years of frontline paramedic experience and in the podcast he shares valuable lessons answering the questions you need answering! In later episodes, Tj introduces the concept of immediate Care paramedics who can provide more advanced help if needed. In this episode about the first aid assessment template, some key take aways are: * Why is the skin important. * How to measure how bad a burn is. * When to get help with different types of burns. Don't forget we're introducing the online community soon, AND, we have some important information for you to download and keep so you can help yourself help immediate care should you need to!
