**Burn Trauma in Critical Care Air Transport** Welcome! “Burn Trauma in the Critical Care Air Transport Setting” is an online and clinical training module designed to meet 12 contact hours of both didactic and hands-on skills training for critical care air transport crews working for Guardian Air, the premier non-profit air medical services provider in northern Arizona. The target population will consist of flight nurses, flight paramedics and respiratory therapists, but the unit has future applications for rural emergency room nurses, emergency physicians and EMS responders. The management of burn trauma is one of the most intimidating morphologies flight crews deal with in the critical care air transport setting. Decisions made on scene within the first few hours of injury can have a major impact on a patient’s quality of life: days, months and even years down the road. Because burn trauma isn’t as common as other injury etiologies, there’s a definite need for continued education in the field. The intent is to provide a meaningful, applicable and transferrable educational experience for critical care flight crews in northern Arizona.
