Narrative

As the employee stepped to the ground his ankle rolled, causing him to fall to the ground. The employee stated that he misjudged the distance from the cab to the floor and resulted in a sprained ankle. A follow up visit with an Orthopedic consult identified that a fracture had re-occurred. The ankle had been fractured in an off the job event about a month ago.
