Resources

Immediate Post-Discharge Care

If you are a burn survivor and are experiencing ongoing pain after discharge, it is important to reach out to your medical team or the treatment hospital where you received care. They can provide guidance, help adjust your treatment plan, and ensure you receive the necessary follow-up care to manage your pain and recovery.

Long-Term Acute Care Resources

For long-term support, several national organizations offer resources and assistance for burn survivors. These resources can connect survivors to healthcare professionals, peer networks, and educational tools that assist in managing the long-term effects of burn injuries.
