Symptom narrative

I administered the vaccine, as I was pulling out, the needle portion stayed in the patient's thigh. Right away I pulled out the needle from the patient intact. The patient was crying from receiving the shot but did not appear to be in distress. Manager and provider made aware of the situation.
