Your boss is an idiot.
We always have a supervisor accompany an injured worker to a clinic or ER, after any incident....

Your boss wants you to quit. If you don't, he will soon find a reason to fire you.

No, quite the opposite. In fact I am due for a pay increase, on top of the annual pay increase that occurs every January.
He likes working with me, he was just in a bad mood yesterday and brought up several topics, all of them justified, and among them was this one.
I will clarify this issues in the 1:1 meeting next week.

First, you did the right thing.
Second, why did he wait for months to bring this up?

Because I wanted to leave half hour early on Friday, which he said is never a problem since I work hard, but he did say that he was in a bad mood on Friday morning (argument at work) and that he needs me to focus even more on work, and he brought this up as one example that seemed to bother him. We were both in a hurry and I did not have time to clarify, but I will do so next week.
From what I learned about people so far is that when they have in issue they may be able to hide it for a while and claim everything is fine, but eventually in a moment of stress they will likely bring it up during arguments. I think this is what happened here.

Sounds like a supervisor or the hierarchy above him that thinks concentrating on negatives is what motivates employees, so they have to go fishing for stuff.

What Janit said. Your company is probably already on the hook for a whopping worker's compensation claim but imagine how much worse it could be if the employee had nothing to do but stew for weeks about being left to fend for himself from the point of injury. If it were me I would be absolutely seething.
And I can't imagine how critical it must be for the company to be able to have an eyewitness accompanying the injured employee all the way up to the point of hospital admission. Imagine the sympathy the injured person could create in a jury with a "...and they left me there to die" story. That kind of stuff can completely end a company in monetary and/or PR damages.
Janit is very wise. If I were ever thrown into jail and only allowed to send one PM to someone here, it would be Janit.
Also: you work with lasers, right? THIS THREAD IS USELESS WITHOUT PICTURES.

Janit -
If nothing else, you have a gift of phrasing things in a clear and communicable way. By that I mean, conveying important meaning without raising hackles.
It's often not enough to just be right. If one can communicate in a way that moves everyone forward, the world becomes a better place.
Kudos.
