Injuries from a slip and fall accident can be serious. A fall can send you to the hospital with severe injuries and can sometimes require surgery and many years of physical therapy. At worst, these accidents can result in lifelong debilitating conditions and in some cases, even death. To make matters worse is the fact that many of these accidents are preventable; numerous Slip & Falls occur on poorly maintained properties, and negligent owners are often to blame.  

​

And if offered an ambulance take it if possible.
