Abstract:
North Carolina's Jaycee Burn Center at UNC Hospitals in Chapel Hill is one of the foremost burn prevention and treatment programs in the world. It offers the National Fire Association's Learn Not to Burn Program. Ernest Grant, a nurse at the burn center, brought the program to Chapel Hill. The goal of the program is to keep people out of the burn center and reduce injuries. To assist in accomplishing this goal, the North Carolina State Department of Public Instruction endorsed the use of the program as part of the fourth grade curriculum.
