Hot liquids burn like fire! It's Burn Awareness Week and the American Burn Association is providing these scald prevention tips, which are endorsed by Joseph Turkowski, MD, Medical Director of Westchester Medical Center's burn care services. A WARNING FOR PARENTS: Scalds are the #1 burn injury in children. Toddlers are especially susceptible, making up more than half of all our pediatric burn care admissions. If you or your child suffers a burn, immediately seek medical attention as burns can lead to serious infections.
