Grey, a patient ambassador at Shriners Children’s Texas, recently shared his story during the Course on Enhancing Pediatric Burn Patient Outcomes: Preparing for Stabilization and Transport.
This specialized training is designed to help first responders, emergency room providers, and transport teams deliver the best possible care to children with burn injuries.
“Every hour counts in the transport of a pediatric patient with a burn injury,” said Vickie, manager of respiratory services at Shriners Children’s Texas.
When Grey was just 2 years old, he tripped and fell into a campfire, suffering second and third degree burns to his hands. Now a teenager, he continues to visit Galveston for follow-up care and proudly represents fellow patients through his work as an ambassador. 👏
