Advanced training for burn nurses online.

We are delighted to announce 3 online modules from Interburn’s flagship Advanced Burn Care (Nursing) course, now freely available at https://learn.interburns.org/interburns.

ABC(Nursing) is normally delivered as a highly practical face to face course over 5 days and aims to improve the quality of care that burn nurses in low resource settings can give their patients - increasing the chances of uncomplicated recovery and a swift return to normal life.

Generously funded by Hub Cymru Africa, three modules Nutrition, Infection prevention and control, and Pain management have been developed in place of planned delivery in Malawi earlier this year.

As with all Interburns materials we have worked closely with local partners to ensure the content is tailored and appropriate to local settings in LMICs. These modules also include new material such as suggested meal plans, case studies around pain management and simple challenges on keeping infection at bay.

Out thanks to the following for help in updating and reviewing the content: Anju Mouraya, Owen McIntyre, Pratibha Sharma, Ziphilly Sichinga, Sarah Wilkes.

With special thanks to ABC(Nursing) lead Dominique Potokar who inspires with her dedication, warmth and passion for supporting burn nurses in some of the world’s most challenging settings.
