An injury to a child can greatly affect his or her physical and mental development processes. In fact, it may be some time before the effects of the injury can be accurately determined. If your child has been injured in an accident, it is important that he or she obtain the best medical care available, including initial medical evaluations, treatment and additional periodic medical evaluations.
