The technologist colleague contacted the second shift technologist colleague and asked to bring one more cassette to the neonatal unit in order for the x-ray to be performed. Indeed, the technologist started to go to the neonatal unit.

He heard and saw some movements from a person that seemed suspicious and in order to secure the section that would be unguarded he closed the double door of the radiology waiting corridor.

The door then fell on her and flattened her resulting in a slight knock as evidenced by the examination on her head and leg, but not her left hand which suffered a fracture at the level of the PFC joint. The colleague was given 1 month sick leave by the TEP.
