MAUREEN NORRIS
FROM THE VIRGINIA WORKERS’ COMPENSATION COMMISSION
(Christopher M. Kite; Roberta A. Paluck; Lucas & Kite, PLC, on
brief), for appellants.
(Terry L. Armentrout; Armentrout & Armentrout, P.L.C., on brief),
for appellee.
Rockingham Memorial Hospital and Safety National Casualty Corporation (collectively
“employer”) appeal a decision of the Workers’ Compensation Commission (hereinafter “the
commission”). On appeal, employer argues that the commission erred in finding Maureen Norris
sustained an injury by accident on February 8, 2011, arising out of and during the course of her
employment, that she injured her left knee, neck, and back as a result of the accident, that her
disability was causally related to her injuries, that she adequately marketed her residual work

reviewed the record and the commission’s opinion and find that this appeal is without merit.
Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the commission in its final opinion. See Norris

dispense with oral argument and summarily affirm because the facts and legal contentions are
