Procure food from sources approved or considered satisfactory and store, prepare, distribute and serve
food in accordance with professional standards.
Based on food service observations, staff interviews, facility document review, and facility policy and
procedure review, the facility failed to maintain sanitary conditions in the main kitchen by following proper
sanitation and food handling practices to prevent the outbreak of foodborne illness. Unsafe food handling
practices represent a potential source of pathogen exposure. Failure to maintain sanitary food preparation
can potentially put the residents at risk for foodborne illness.
The findings include:
During observations of the kitchen and lunch meal service on 11/07/23 from 10:35 am to 12:55 pm, the
following was observed:
Employee H was observed on the clean side of the dish machine emptying trays of clean dishes as they
came out of the dish machine, she had no gloves on. The dish machine was observed to be a low
temperature dish machine with chlorine bleach as the sanitizing agent. From 10:35 am to 11:00 am,
Employee H went back and forth between the clean and dirty side of the dish room loading and unloading
the trays without washing her hands. As the dishes were cleaned and came out of the machine on the
conveyor belt, she took the trays and emptied them, stacking the dishes up on a shelf. The dishes were not
allowed to air dry. The stainless steel-utensils used by the residents were not allowed to air dry. They were
dumped into another tray and taken to the kitchen. At 11:45 am, the registered dietician and dietary staff
were observed wrapping the wet utensils in napkins and placing them on food trays for service.
At 11:00 am, the Staffing Coordinator, Employee K, was observed working in the dish room loading dirty
dishes onto dish machine trays. Employee H was observed going to the dirty side of the dish room and
putting dirty dishes on a tray. She then returned to the clean side of the room and continued unloading
dishes without washing her hands.
At 11:10 am, Employee H was asked to test the sanitizer level in the dish machine. She stated she needed
to get the test strips and left the dish room. She returned and tested the water on a cup that had just been
washed. The test strip remained white indicating 0 parts per million (ppm) of bleach in the water. She took
another test strip and tried again by placing the test strip on the back of an insulated dome cover. The test
strip remained white indicating 0 ppm. (Photographic evidence obtained) She stated she did not understand
why the test strip did not turn blue. She tested the machine this morning when she came to work. Employee
H referred to the log on a clip board hanging on the wall. The log read 50 ppm for the date 11/07/23. She
then asked the other dietary aide, Employee G, for assistance. Employee G came over to the dish machine
and took the bucket of chlorine bleach out from under the machine and stated that the bucket was empty.
Employee H went and got another bucket

and Employee G inserted the hose into the new bucket and showed Employee H how to do it. She placed
the new bucket of chlorine bleach under the machine and went back to her task. Employee H continued to
run the machine. At 11:22 am, she was asked to test the machine again. She tested it using a test strip and
the test strip remained white. When asked what she was trained to do, she stated she was going to inform
the CDM and left the dish room.
Residents Affected - Many
At 11:25 am, the DM entered the dish room and tested the water with a test strip. The test strip remained
white. (Photographic evidence obtained) He then primed the machine at the top of the machine where the
hose from the bucket of chlorine bleach enters the machine and ran a load of dishes. He tested the water
and the test strip indicated 200+ ppm. The DM stated that the test strip was very dark and there was a lot of
bleach in the water now. It was probably due to having just primed it. He confirmed that 200+ ppm was a
toxic level of bleach, and he would keep an eye on it.
At 11:40 am, black biological growth was observed on the interior surfaces of the ice machine. Black
biological growth and dust debris was observed on the air vents over the food preparation table and the
smoke alarm in the center of the ceiling in the kitchen. Black biological growth was observed on the gaskets
and interior of the milk cooler. Food debris was observed on the inside of the cooler and the bottom of the
milk cooler was wet with slimy black liquid with a spoon lying in it. (Photographic evidence obtained)
Three large cardboard boxes containing Styrofoam cups and hinged containers with lids were observed
sitting directly on the floor of the kitchen. The staff later used the products to serve the lunch meal service
to the residents. (Photographic evidence obtained)
The drawers of the service tables were observed to have food debris in the bottoms. Utensils in the drawers
were not clean and had food debris stuck on them. Missing and broken floor tiles were in front of the prep
sink, at the entry way of the kitchen, and throughout the kitchen. The tray carts were dirty clean with food
debris stuck on them. The floors under the equipment and in the corners of the kitchen were not clean with
a buildup of food and grease debris. The sides and back of the steam table had dried up food debris and
liquid that had run down the side. The storage and food preparation table had food debris on the them.
Plates stacked in the plate warmer had food debris stuck to them. Large stainless steel baking pans were
observed to be wet and stacked in such a way that did not allow for air drying. The tile wall of the kitchen
near the steam table and entrance had brown food and dust debris stuck-on it. (Photographic evidence
obtained)
A ceiling tile was hanging down above the walk-in cooler. Two large chopping knives and a long-serrated
knife were observed lying on the window sill at the back of the kitchen. The chopping knives were lying on
top of cooking gloves and the serrated knife was lying on the sill itself. At 11:50 am, the DM went to the sill
and took serrated knife down. He took it to the prep table and proceeded to use it. He did not clean it prior
to use. (Photographic evidence obtained)
At 11:52 am, when asked why the knives were stored in such a manner, the DM shrugged his shoulders,
shook his head and stated, I don't know. The Assistant Dietary Manager (ADM), Employee F, was observed
opening a cardboard container of mashed potato flakes with her bare hands. She then pour the food into a
pot of water on the stove. The ADM closed the container and put it away for future use, she did not mark a
date on the box.
At 11:55 am, broken floor tiles were observed in the walk-in freezer. The shelves and the floor of the freezer
were not clean and had discarded food containers under the shelves. (Photographic

At 12:00 pm, the ADM was observed to don a pair of disposable gloves without washing her hands and
started to plate the food for the lunch. Shortly thereafter, she left the steam table and walked 20 feet over to
the oven, opened the door, and with hot pads took a pan out of the oven. The ADM took the pan to the
steam table and put it in. She did not change the contaminated gloves or wash her hands and don new
gloves.
At 12:40 pm, the DM stated he did not have enough staff to do the deep cleaning that needed to be done in
the kitchen. He confirmed that the ADM should doff disposable gloves after contaminating them and then
wash her hands with soap and water prior to donning a pair of new gloves. The DM stated he would provide
an in-service for the staff who operate the dish machine to make sure they are monitoring the level of
sanitizer and that the machine is functioning properly.
During an interview with the Administrator on 11/07/2023 at 2:00 pm, she produced the Quality Assurance
Committee Performance Improvement Plan (PIP) from the prior recertification survey when the facility had
been cited for deficiencies in the kitchen. The Administrator stated that the PIP was still ongoing even
though the plan was only for the three months after the survey to ensure the deficiencies were corrected.
She acknowledged that the ice machine was not clean, and the plan had not been followed. She explained
that the facility contracts for maintenance of the ice machine and the vendor last cleaned the machine on
09/14/2023. The Administrator stated the dietary staff clean the machine once a month, but she was unable
to produce a log showing the cleaning had been done. None of the other findings during this survey were
identified during the recertification survey.
A review of the invoice from the vendor providing maintenance and cleaning services of the ice machine
dated 09/21/2023 revealed it read: Cleaned ice machine in the kitchen. Chemically cleaned the evap and all
the tube. Scrubbed the inside of the bin and reservoir. Replace water filter. Technician recommended a new
machine multiple times to the client due to how old it is. Checked operation (Copy obtained)
Review of the Quality Assurance Committee PIP developed after the last recertification survey conducted
on 07/27/2023, revealed the facility implemented monitoring of the cleanliness of the kitchen by developing
a Food and Physical Safety Auditing tool that included cleaning schedules weekly for equipment and areas
of the kitchen. Floors, walls, doors, baseboards cleaned. All dishes allowed to air dry (not stacked wet),
pots, pans, dishware, utensils store to prevent contamination. All cooling units clean and in good condition.
All food stored properly, and date marked. All equipment clean and in good working order. The tools had
been marked off as being complete as of 10/26/2023. (Copies obtained) An infection control audit tool had
been developed dated 10/12/2023 that read: 4. Staff washes hands when changing tasks, including before
placing gloves on hands. 7. Proper dish washing procedures are followed. Sanitizer solutions at proper PPM
and temperatures within desired range and recorded. Staff can verbalize how to check PPM's and
appropriate dish machine temperature.
