## Narrative

EE was examining the cleaning cells at the mill which sit on a slightly elevated floor. The floor is constructed of metal grates and there is a 6"" step up to the elevated floor. When she left the area she misjudged the step as she was leaving the elevated floor. This caused her to fall on her knees resulting in a L. ankle sprain, and a sprain and a laceration to R. knee.
