Our Mission: To inform the community of safety issues, risk of injury, burn prevention, and identify
precautionary measures that can be taken to reduce the risk of burn injury and the destruction of property.
Almost every burn injury can be avoided if people are aware. Through education and awareness, in both the workplace and at home, the number of deaths and injuries can be greatly reduced and through the information published in the Canadian Burn Resource guide awareness is brought to a higher level.
