Narrative

Due to a wet area on the floor because of rain, the employee's right foot slipped and twisted as he stepped out of the control room. He tried rest and applied ice on his foot right after the injury, but had to see a physician the next day due to increase pain. The attending physician diagnosed the injury as an ankle sprain and placed him on restricted work duty.
