We expect the outing to sell out quickly, so don't delay in registering.

The 35th Burn Center Outing was held on September 23, 2024. We are pleased to announce that the 2024 outing generated a donation of $70,000 for the two burn centers. Checks were presented at a special meeting held at Nationwide Children's Hospital on November 12, 2024. Thanks to everyone who participated in this year's outing.

Since 1990, the Burn Center outing has raised nearly $670,000. Thank you to everyone who has supported this outing.

The following is information for each of the Burn Units.

The Ohio State Comprehensive Burn Center provides specialized care for patients with multiple types of thermal, inhalation, and soft tissue injuries as well as reconstruction for scaring in healed burns. In the past year, we have cared for over 400 inpatient burn patients and have had over 2,200 outpatient clinic visits. We have also performed over 150 laser treatments annually for burn survivors to help reduce scarring, pain, itching and nerve pain. As the only American Burn Association Adult Verified burn center in Columbus, our goal is to treat survivors of burns from the time of injury with their daily activities and eventual integration back to work.

The monies raised by the SFPE Golf Outing have benefited our patients and staff in the following ways:

Assisting with burn compression garments for patients who do not have the resources to pay for these without our assistance. Compression garments help lessen the appearance and impact of the scars after recovery.
Providing training for our SOAR (Survivors Offering Assistance in Recovery) program and supporting our monthly survivor group outings. We are also working on having the inpatients involved with the survivors so they can ask questions while still in the hospital, to help provide the inpatients with the sense of hope seeing survivors thrive after their injuries.
Sponsoring trainee travel to the American Burn Association meeting in order to share novel research into burns and recovery.
Burn survivor functions which bring together the nursing staff, first responders and burn survivors to celebrate their successes in recovery.

We at the Burn Center are so appreciative for the ongoing generosity of SFPE and those that support the annual Golf Outing to improve the lives of our burn survivors on a daily basis.

The Burn Center at Nationwide Children’s Hospital is an all-inclusive program dedicated to providing best outcomes to pediatric burn patients. As one of the select programs verified by the American Burn Association and American College of Surgeons, burn patients and their families receive the expertise and support of a comprehensive, multidisciplinary team from arrival to the hospital often into adulthood. The goal of the program is to provide optimal care to assure the best possible physical, psychological and social outcomes that promote a return to a healthy and active life.

This annual golf outing will raise money for the Healthy Healing Burn Camp, which plays an important role in helping burn survivors return to a healthy life. The camp is sponsored by Nationwide Children’s Hospital at no cost to families, welcoming patients who have been treated in the Burn Center. Kids and families are able to come together and share their unique experiences. The program focuses on community building, strengthening family bonds, giving and receiving support and learning new ways to thrive in the community. Campers enjoy activities such as woodshop, archery, fishing, arts and crafts and most importantly, making new friends.

Thank you for your valued contributions to NCH’s Burn Center.
