Children and Burns or Scalds
Advice from the British Burn Association
Every year, 30,000 children go to hospital with burns. What might
be a minor burn for an adult could horrifically injure - or even kill - a
child.
Take these precautions
l
Keep hot drinks out of children’s reach.
l
Do not drink while holding your baby. If you’re passing someone a
drink, make sure a child isn’t underneath.
l
Keep your kettle, and its cord, well back from the worktop edge so
that children can’t grab them.
l
Keep children away from the kitchen work area.
l
For baby’s bath, run the cold water first, then add the hot. Mix well
and test the temperature with your elbow before you put baby in.
l
Teach children about hot things.
Run cold water over a burn immediately, then get medical help.
Do
not stop to remove clothing.
