Frances MacDougall is a registered nurse and the creator of the Too Hot for Tots! Program.After working on the burn unit at BC Children’s Hospital for 18 years and hearing parents and caregivers say they were not aware of the burn hazards in their home or how seriously their children could be injured, Frances developed Too Hot for Tots! to address this knowledge gap.Over the past two decades, Frances has presented at local, national and international conferences sharing her unique knowledge and understanding of this issue with parents, educators and special interest groups.Just recently, in December, 2018, Frances was honoured with the Excellence in Nursing Advocacy Award from the Nurses and Nurse Practitioners of BC (NNPBC) for her role in raising awareness about burn prevention.    https://burnfund.org/
