Narrative:
Clear air turbulence with a short drop and jolt while in the galley. I was not hurt, but the #4 flight attendant hurt her arm/shoulder when she fell to the floor. I called the cockpit crew to let them know about #4 flight attendant and asked if it was possible there was any other turbulence. They said no.
