Kidsafe, in partnership with the Australian & New Zealand Burn Association (ANZBA), has launched National Burns Awareness Month (June) to raise awareness about burn prevention and the importance of proper first aid.
Burns can happen in a matter of seconds, but providing immediate and appropriate first aid can help minimise the extent of the injury and support a better recovery. If a burn occurs, cool the affected area under running water for 20 minutes and contact 000 if emergency assistance is required.
