Lebanon emergency: We are super proud of the Interburns team - Tom Potokar, Pam Robertshaw, Mohan Shanmugam and Mohamed Ziara, one of the first emergency teams, and only specialist burn team, to respond to the current conflict. Pam says 'Timely and specialist care is essential for patient's long term recovery; our team has a wealth of knowledge and experience so we can deliver this. Alongside the physical care, including assessment, surgery, dressings and pain relief, we give hope and strength to patients who are often in psychological trauma as a result of their injuries'. Amazing work!
