LPA Jensen reviewed a copy of the menu posted for September 2023. Meals listed for breakfast lunch and dinner appeared to meet the recommended dietary allowances of the Food and Nutrition Board of the National Research Council. Meals included a variety of grains, fruits, vegetables and proteins. Based on LPA Jensen's review of RDN consultation documentation and the facility food service menus the allegation of " The person in the kitchen lead or chef is not a nutritionist, a dietitian, or a home economist and they are not regularly consulting with the facility." is UNSUBSTANTIATED. A finding of unsubstantiated means that although the allegation may have happened, the preponderance of evidence does not prove it. LPA Jensen conducted site visits and inspected the facility kitchen on 9/27/23 and 11/16/23. During the course of the kitchen inspection on both occasions LPA Jensen observed the refrigerator and freezer temperatures to be in compliance therefore the allegation of "food temperatures are not right" is UNSUBSTANTIATED. A finding of unsubstantiated means that although the allegation may have happened, the preponderance of evidence does not prove it. An exit interview was conducted and a copy of this report and appeal rights were provided.
