TENANT FELL AND BROKE ELBOW MOVING FURNITURE FOR A CARPET INSTALL

I am a new landlord, and just had my tenant tell me she fell and broke her elbow while moving furniture back into a room after removing it for a carpet install (storm damaged roof and sprung a leak doing some damage to floor and drywall).  I have a renters policy through USAA with coverage for accidents.  Should I be doing anything, or should I just wait it out to see if she tries to come after me.

They are new tenants that are an older retired couple, and seem nice people thus far.  I am not too concerned at the moment, but curious if anyone has any suggestions on how to handle from their experiences.

Thank you for your input!
