Guzman Accident





March 23, 2012. A call from Mandurriao Police Station was received at around 11pm regarding a motor vehicle accident that occurred at Guzman St., Mandurriao which resulted into multiple injuries to the driver. ICER Medic2 rushed to the scene but half way to the area, ICER dispatch advised the team for a change in location and instead to proceed to Mandurriao Police Station, the police personnel on duty brought the patient to their station. Upon arrival, the team assessed the patient for injuries, upon assessment, several injuries were noted, namely; a laceration of about 1 inch at top of the head, and lacerations at the left leg. After awhile the family of the patient arrived at the station and requested the team to transport the patient  to Western Visayas Medical Center (WVMC), however the said hospital informed dispatch that their x-ray machine is currently non-operational, and signified that they would not be able to provide proper treatment and care to the patient. The patients family, upon hearing of the information decided to take the patient to WVSU Medical Center in Jaro.
