Narrative

While inserting a split set, employee was struck in the chest with the dolly off the jack-leg driver. He reported to our medic & was sent to doctor for x-rays, which were negative. He worked his next shift, then went on days off. Upon returning to work, he said his chest is still painful. We took him to ER, and a Cat Scan was done, reulting in a small fracture to the breast bone.
