Retrospective analysis of the Bangour Burn Unit.
The Bangour Burn Unit was opened in 1968 having been built using existing buildings modified in a relatively inexpensive way. The buildings were unsophisticated because the Unit was designed to be temporary before an eventual move into a new regional plastic surgery unit elsewhere. An analysis of some salient observations over the 22-year period of its lifetime is discussed.
