Syllabus

Home health aide sought workers' compensation benefits after she fell in the wet grass in the side yard of her client's home and sustained an injury to her back. The employee had completed her shift, had stayed with the client (a long-time friend) for approximately 15 minutes after her shift, and was leaving the home when she went to check on an unknown noise around the side of the house. The trial court did not err in concluding that the employee's injury did not occur in the course of and arising out of her employment. Judgment affirmed.
