Swallowed Bee - isitrecordable?
A bee flew into the mouth of a maintenance employee who was mowing the grass. The bee became lodged in the employee's throat and stung him. The employee had great difficulty breathing and the occupational health nurse provided the employee with OTC benadryl. The employee was taken to the emergency room but the doctors did not feel the need to provide any treatment because by the time he arrived he was breathing normally. Is it recordable?

Is the occupational health nurse an on site employee of the company? If they are, then no I would consider it a first aid. If they are not and the employee was taken off site then yes.
Current poll results:
41% yes
59% no

I didn’t realize Benadryl does not breach the recordable threshold
