A Criança Queimada Numa Unidade Não Especializada De Hospital Geral

Abstract

The necessity of improving nursing care to children with burns, admitted to a Pediatric Unit of a General Hospital, led the authors to adapt the ward so as to have one room prepared for such children. Results were good. They can be proved by the quicker evolution of the patients' condition, the increased interest of nursing personnel in caring for such patients and in the decreasing time splent by them in the accomflish ment of their tashs.
