OPINION

MINZNER, Judge.

Defendant Albertsons, Inc. appeals the judgment on a verdict in favor of plaintiff Maria Rita Gutierrez (Gutierrez) in this slip-and-fall action. Albertsons makes the following arguments on appeal: (1) there was insufficient evidence to support the jury’s finding that Albertsons was negligent; (2) admission of Gutierrez’ testimony about the absence of maternity care insurance coverage for her was reversible error; and (3) Gutierrez’ failure to sue Albertsons’ allegedly negligent employee barred her claims against it as a matter of law. We affirm.
