This is a non-exhaustive list of healthcare facilities and professionals with experience in providing frostbite care around the world, including healthcare facilities with established frostbite care pathways and protocols. The aim of this list is to facilitate frostbite care access and collaboration in providing frostbite care.
Healthcare professionals may use this “Transfer of Care Form” to provide information to the next provider of care when transferring a patient from one healthcare facility to another (e.g. patient details, frostbite injury/event description and treatment provided).
For any other inquiries, visit the Canadian Frostbite Care Network Contact page.
The Canadian Frostbite Care Network does not provide formal medical consultations or specific medical advice. Frostbite assessment and care is variable between centres and physicians, as currently there is no clearly defined standard of care in the medical literature.
Patients are encouraged to connect with their local care teams through the Emergency Department and/or Primary Care provider, who are best positioned to facilitate consultation and/or transfer of care to appropriate local specialists or one of the centres listed below.
