Narrative

An employee was pushing a food cart in a dining lounge. Her foot slid forward and caught under the cart, causing her to fall backward. Her foot remained under the cart and her right arm went between two chairs, preventing her from stopping her fall. She suffered an open fracture to the left femur, as well as fractures to the right humerus and the left nasal bone.
