A survey was conducted from burn care facilities (BCF) regarding their participation in National Burn Awareness Week (NBAW). The second week in February has been proclaimed NBAW. This is the only national campaign of this scope and is supported by the American Burn Association. The NBAW Task Force meets annually to compose and review the burn awareness materials that are sent to all BCF. A telephone survey was conducted, and responses to questions were obtained from all 148 of the BCF listed in the American Burn Association's "Burn Care Resources in North America 1991-1992." The purpose of the study was to answer questions regarding BCF involvement with NBAW and burn prevention programs. Review of the literature reveals this to be the first national study to elicit this type of information. Information sharing of this magnitude can have a dynamic effect on the participation of BCF in NBAW and can result in increased burn awareness in the BCF's local communities. An added benefit is that the task force receives specific input direct from those using the campaign, which validates the continuation of NBAW and the support of the ABA.
