Abrams, Thereasa E; Li, Xueping; Wyatt, Tami H; Staples, Carolyn I; Coe, Dawn P; Hickerson, William L
- Abstract
The authors discuss information about the Bridge Mobile Application for Burn Patients and examines how the app was conceived. Topics covered include how the app will help medical and community-based social workers in their work with discharging burn patients, quality of care during hospitalization as a mechanism to cut costs, and a need for increased outpatient resources and patient education for proper postdischarge care and recognition of early signs of infection.
