Background: Burn is ranked as the fourth leading cause of trauma that causes an injury to the skin and other organic tissue that is mostly brought on by heat, radiation, radioactivity, electricity, friction, or chemical contact.

Objective: This study aims to assess the knowledge, attitude, and practices of burn first aid among Jordanian parents.

Methods: A cross-sectional descriptive design was used in recruiting 217 parents. A total of 217 parents were enrolled in this study.

Results: The average age was (M=34.9, SD=10.9) years. Most of the participants were female (n=202, 93.1) and were housewives (n=142, 65.4). Generally, half of the participants had adequate knowledge about first aid for burn injury (n=111, 51.2%). For attitude,  parents show a positive attitude toward going to the doctor before doing anything in case of having a burned child (94.0%). For practices, parents had adequate safe practices toward burned children (n=200, 92.1%). Significant mean differences were found between being a female [t (216)=-1.03, p=.002] for knowledge and [t (216)=-1.45, p=.003)] for practice, and between receiving an emergency course to treat burn (M=1.77±0.422) with those who did not receive the emergency course [t (216)=-1.36, p=.004] for knowledge and [t (216)=-1.38, p=.003)]. Conclusion: Comprehensive educational and preventive efforts are needed to improve parents' understanding, attitudes, and practices surrounding the treatment of burns in children.

Implication for Nursing: This study identifies a knowledge gap among parents that nurses can fill through advocacy, education, and practice enhancements, ultimately improving outcomes for children in Jordan who have suffered burn injuries.
