Burns

Bristol Royal Hospital for Children has recently developed a specialist paediatric burns centre.  We have a dedicated paediatric burns unit that provides specialist HDU and ward care for children suffering from acute burn injuries across South West England and Wales.  The dietitian is part of the specialist multidisciplinary team who provides a service to inpatients to optimise nutrition support for these children.  We ensure that recovery is maximised by providing nutrition intervention that is latest evidence based best practice ensuring that essential nutrients are delivered in the right quantities and methods to meet the high nutrition demands of recovery from burns.  The burns dietitian is also a member of the Paediatric Burns Nutrition Interest Group.
