Kitchen Fire - Application Procedures for Emergency Burn Care

video
The sooner a child with burn injuries reaches a Shriners Hospital that specializes in burn treatment, the better the chances of recovery.
In an emergency, the referring physician treating a child with burn injuries should telephone the chief of staff at the Shriners Hospital in Boston, Cincinnati, Galveston or Sacramento and indicate that there is a patient needing emergency burn care.
The telephone numbers for emergency admissions Shriners Hospitals specializing in burn treatment are:

Boston: (800) 255-1916
Cincinnati: (800) 875-8580 (Patients from SC are referred to Cincinnati)
Galveston: (409) 770-6733
Sacramento: (916) 453-2111

Transportation issues are handled on a case-by-case basis. The hospital's care coordinator will assist families with transportation details.
