Narrative

EE was working in the Shower Room installing a new trash bag in a can when EE's eye started to itch. From then on EE's eye became irritated, red, and swollen so EE went to wash it. EE reported EE's discomfort to a supervisor. EE was then taken to a Dr to receive medical attention. The doctor saw a scratch in the corner of EE's left eye and prescribed antibiotic medicine.
