Narrative

Employee was walking across pattern when EE tripped over bore hole causing EE to fall to ground straining right shoulder. Initially, the medical evaluation allowed a return to work with no restrictions. Follow-up with physician on 03-22-2023 resulted in restrictions and prescription medication. Therefore what was once a non-recordable on March 9 became a recordable on March 22.
