WILLINGTON (28 JULY) — A traffic incident on the South Market Street has led to the overturning of two vehicles. Four of the passengers were children and all received injuries of different severity.
The incident was reported at 1:30 p.m. on Thursday, July 27 and involved four separate vehicles. One of the vehicles, a 2013 GMC Yukon, contained four children aged between 9 and 12. The vehicle flipped upon impact, causing injuries of various severity in all of the four children. The children were admitted into the (Hospital Name) at 1:55 p.m. on July, 27th. One of the children remains in critical condition and unconscious. Another child’s condition is serious, and the remaining two are in fair condition.
All children were rushed to the hospital by the EMS shortly after the incident, which helped to preserve vital functions until arrival to the hospital. Physicians and nurses have been attending to the patients ever since. One of the patients required surgery, whereas three of the children acquired fractures and other tissue injuries as a result of the incident. The hospital team is working hard to ensure that all patients recover from the incident and are allowed to go back home as soon as possible. Two of the children are in fair condition, meaning that they will most likely be released from the hospital by the end of the week.
Currently, our best efforts are aimed at:
- returning all children to good condition and facilitating recovery by administering required medication and treatment;
- providing advice and counseling to parents to equip them with skills and knowledge necessary to ensure smooth recovery;
- assisting the local law enforcement in the investigation and relief efforts by providing information on the condition of patients and their progress to recovery.
We hope that all the patients will benefit from our efforts and will be released from the hospital as soon as possible. Further updates on the patients’ condition and progress will be provided once more information is available. In the meanwhile, you can help these and other patients to recover faster by donating to our hospital.
