When Paramedics Arrive at the Scene of a Crash

When EMTs and paramedics arrive at the scene of a car crash, they will assess the situation. Some patients will need immediate attention, while others may appear unharmed. The medical personnel will check the victim’s ABCs: airway, breathing, and circulation. If necessary, they will apply a C-collar to stabilize the victim’s neck in order to move them into the ambulance.

Even if you are not transported in an ambulance after an accident, visit your physician or an emergency room right away. Due to the shock of being in an accident, many injuries do not become apparent until hours or days later.
