Narrative

EE was loading rounds at the face. A small piece of debris came off the face, striking EE's left wrist. EE reported and did not seek treatment. When the pain did not subside, EE saw a doctor on 11/30/21 and was diagnosed with a chip fracture and released with restrictions that do not preclude EE from performing all the essential functions of the role.
