I was sitting at the Security computer outside of [REDACTED] watching cameras. I saw the patient standing near the double doors leading out to the ED hallway. The patient rushed through the door and L stopped the patient. The patient pushed me but we got control of his arms. With the help of a nurse we were able to walk the patient back into [REDACTED]. I do not know what happened but after we got the patient secured in his room my right ankle and knee began to hurt badlycausing me to get it evaluated in the Emergency Department.
