Narrative

This report is late because we were told at first it was a re-injury. It has been established that it is a new injury. The employee was ""working on dry screen of wash deck"" and was ""pulling on ratchet in awkward position"". He has tendonitis and possible rotator cuff injury to the right shoulder.
