Auto Accident Attorneys and the Importance of Seeking Emergency Care After an Accident in Tampa, St Petersburg, Lakeland, Clearwater, Orlando, and Central Florida
Even a minor car accident can result in serious injuries, which is why the auto accident attorneys at Kennedy Law Group want to remind you to always seek prompt, professional emergency care in the event of a crash.
Call 911 immediately and report any injuries to the police or medical personnel who arrive on the scene. If your car is inoperable, or if the police tell you to refrain from driving it, ask to be taken to a nearby hospital so that your injuries can be treated and documented. If you do not have insurance, go to the emergency room anyway and seek help. Most hospitals are required by law to provide emergency medical care free of charge to the uninsured. Be sure to provide the doctor or nurse with honest and accurate information about your medical history and the circumstances of the traffic accident, including:
- How, when, and where the accident occurred, and whether you reported it to the police.
- The location and severity of the pain you are experiencing.
- Whether you have any previous injuries or surgeries, however minor or long ago.
- Any other information the doctor or nurse requests.
The auto accident attorneys at Kennedy Law Group care most of all about your safety and well-being. If you are involved in a crash, seek immediate medical assistance and leave worrying about how you are going to pay for it to a later time. It is possible that your insurance policy will fully reimburse you for your emergency care expenses.
