Rhode Island Burn Center
Rhode Island's Only Verified Burn Center

International Outreach

The practitioners at the Burn Center at Rhode Island Hospital share their knowledge with the world. David Harrington, MD, leads a group of committed professionals on regular missions to develop professional relationships with burn centers in the developing world.

The team has visited Rio de Janeiro, Brazil; Tegucigalpa, Honduras; and La Paz, Bolivia.

We take our role of service to the community seriously. We feel a responsibility above and beyond caring for patients and want to do more.

This desire leads us to plan for disasters, become involved in prevention and offer assistance to our community.
