Narrative

On 2/24/2015, at approximately 2:00 PM, an employee was injured while restocking in the linen department at a department store. The employee was moving comforters and quilts from the floor to the shelves. The employee's foot got caught on one of the quilts that was on the floor, which caused her to fall onto her right hip. She could not get back up to her feet from that point. The injured employee was taken to Kingwood Hospital for treatment and is awaiting possible hip surgery.
