Narrative

Leadman was grabbing a tow strap out of the back of the shifter truck when it had caught on something as the employee turned around and felt small pain in right shoulder. Didn't think anything of it but went to the clinic later on to get checked out. On August 4th, 2022 employee was prescribed pain meds. So it went from a First Aid to a Medical Treatment.
