Burn Injury

The Trauma of Burn Injuries or Death

Devastating burn injuries happen more and more frequently in our society. New products involving electronics, batteries and fire generate accidents resulting in serious burns. In our homes, fire places, stove tops, outdoor grills and fire bowls can quickly become hazardous, and careless use of decorative candles increases the risk of bodily burns. In the workplace, negligence in labor-intensive industries like auto mechanics, building construction, the oil industry, forestry and plumbing can cause serious burn injuries. If a company does not properly establish safety guidelines and maintain secure work areas, electrical lines, gas pipelines and other necessary elements in a work environment, painful burns that can cause disfigurement or even death may occur.
