Narrative

Member was bending and pushing bolt into top and heard his shoulder make a loud pop. He did not cease work but told his supervisor about the injury but didn't fill out an accident report. After the shift, he transported himself to Med Express in Beckley. Marfork Safety Department was not made aware of this until after he had seen a doctor.
