Burn injuries spike during the summer months.
Summer in Texas means backyard barbecues, camping trips, fireworks, outdoor festivals, and construction projects. These activities bring families and friends together, but they’re also the reason burn injuries spike during the summer months.
Common cooking injuries increase during Thanksgiving week.
Family members gather for Thanksgiving, and food is at the center of nearly every celebration. Unfortunately, it’s also one of the peak days for cooking-related fires. According to the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), home cooking fires occur nearly three times more often on Thanksgiving than on an average day. These incidents often lead to costly property damage, severe burn injuries, and even fatalities.
