To be burned is to suffer one of the most dehumanizing events known. Adult burn patients have gone from independent, healthy individuals to totally dependent patients who may survive but be severely disfigured. The ultimate rehabilitation goal is to provide extensively burned patients with the training necessary for them to resume as much of their preburn lifestyle as possible. Prevention and control of scarring processes are the initial vital phases of the process. Reconditioning continues that process by preparing the patients to function within the limits of their present physical ability. All of the activities of daily living that the patient is able to perform with a minimum amount of assistance or independently with the use of assistive devices also move the patient toward independent living. The rehabilitation process is a critical element in the daily care of the burn-injured patient, and all team members providing that care should be encouraged to view the patient as a whole, giving early consideration to the final rehabilitation outcome.
被烧伤是经历已知的最有辱人格的事件之一。成年烧伤患者从独立、健康的个体变成了完全依赖他人的患者，他们可能存活下来，但会严重毁容。最终的康复目标是为大面积烧伤患者提供必要的训练，使他们尽可能恢复烧伤前的生活方式。预防和控制瘢痕形成过程是该过程最初的关键阶段。康复训练通过使患者在其当前身体能力范围内发挥功能来延续这一过程。患者能够在最少的帮助下或借助辅助设备独立完成的所有日常生活活动，也有助于患者走向独立生活。康复过程是烧伤患者日常护理中的一个关键要素，应鼓励所有提供护理的团队成员将患者视为一个整体，尽早考虑最终的康复结果。
