About

The website provides information about the American Burn Association's disaster response services. It describes emergency hotline numbers for different regions in case of a mass casualty event involving burns. People who have suffered individual burns should visit their local burn center instead of using these hotlines. The summary also includes links to more resources on disaster response from the American Burn Association.
