Following a car accident or another situation involving serious injuries, the most important thing is to make sure everyone affected is safe while providing emergency aid and treatment if necessary. In many cases, it is a good idea to call 911 and have emergency medical technicians come to the scene to provide medical care. A police officer may also be dispatched, and they may prepare and file a police report, which can provide important information that can be used to establish liability for your injuries. If possible, you will want to try to collect evidence, such as by taking photographs or getting the contact information of witnesses.
Even if you do not receive emergency medical treatment, you should see a doctor as soon as possible after being injured. This can identify any medical issues that may not have been immediately obvious while ensuring that you receive the proper care.
