Medical and factual proof
Evidence that makes this page stronger

Treatment story
How the treatment timeline should read

For this page, the treatment path usually turns on emergency care: The burn is stabilised and documented., burn unit: Grafts and surgeries build the record., rehabilitation: Scarring and function are assessed., and long-term: Disfigurement and psychological harm documented.. When that sequence is documented, the case story feels more coherent to insurers, attorneys, and anyone reviewing the file.
