Symptom narrative

Administered first dose of HPV vaccine to patient after confirming no prior hx of syncope with blood draws or vaccines. Approximately 1-2 minutes post-vaccination I observed the patient just before she hit the floor, landing on her left shoulder and then hitting head - fall partially witnessed. Emergency cord pulled. Patient appeared unresponsive for approximately 30-45 seconds. Responded to verbal stimuli gradually. Two nurses and the provider arrived immediately to assist. Vitals assessed - BP 120/68, HR 66, RR unlabored, airway patent. She reported left shoulder pain and HA upon gaining full consciousness. Ice pack applied to left shoulder; water provided. Patient was slowly assisted into a sitting position on the floor, and then safely transferred to wheelchair. Provider spoke with mom about needing further evaluation in UC for xray. Patient was A/O, and stable at the time of transfer and was escorted to UC via wheelchair by self for further assessment.
