title: Burn injury.
abstract: An important element in the care of burns, which affect more than 2.5 million Americans per year, is a multidisciplinary team approach. Nurses are important members of the team, which also includes physicians, physical and occupational therapists, psychologists, rehabilitation counselors, and nutritionists among others. Regular communication with the team is important for consistent quality care.
