This is the sixth step to follow if you or a loved one has been injured in a truck accident.

Sixth, it is important that all medical care for injured parties in the truck accident should be carefully documented.  Photographs and videos of injuries and medical conditions need to be taken, not only at the beginning, but at regular time intervals throughout the medical care time.  Photographs and videos taken in the hospital setting as well as therapy can be very important in supporting the personal injury claim.

In addition, recording the progression of injury and medical conditions through diaries and other documentation to record the times, complaints and changes in condition can be very helpful in the personal injury claim.

Maintaining all medical bills and receipts, including prescription receipts, help to support the personal injury claim against the trucking company or truck driver.  Documenting lost time from work or other planned activities that were lost due to the truck accident should be maintained.
