I was in the room preparing it for the patient that was to be coming in. Our EVS person was in the room wiping things. I left the room to get my supplies and walked back in to bring the supplies and the floor was wet.

Walking into room 7 to complete setup for incoming patient I slipped onto bottom and twisted left footankle. Floor was wet between rooms 7-8 and inside room 7 from mopping. I did not realize. There was no sign or verbal warning from housekeeping.
