文摘

Older adults are at a higher risk for morbidity and mortality due to burn. In Wales and the US, policies focus on enabling older people to live at home. Home fire safety (HFS) knowledge improved and was retained over time. There is a need for a HFS video specifically targeting older adults. An international collaboration aided development of an effective HFS program.
