The findings included: A tour of the laundry area was conducted on 02/08/23 at 3:30 PM with the facility's Housekeeping Director and the corporate Environmental Services Director-in-Training. The following areas of concern were observed, and photographic evidence was obtained: 1. In the dirty linen sorting area and in the washing machine room, it was noted there were several blue isolation gowns hanging on the walls on hooks. 2. Initial observation of the washing machines revealed that the first washing machine had two tubes which were rusted off. The Housekeeping Director stated this machine was out-of-service and had been disconnected from power so the staff could not accidentally turn it on. The surveyor observed that there was laundry present in this washing machine (visible from the door). The Housekeeping Director and the corporate Environmental Services Director-in-Training stated a housekeeping staff member must have put the laundry in the washer recently. Neither the Housekeepiing Director or the corporate Environmental Service Director-in-Traing could say how long the laundry had been in the washing machine nor why it had not been removed due to the machine being out-of-service. 3. Observation of the second washing machine revealed this machine had 2 external filters, one of which was laden with dust and dirt, one of which looked as if it had been cleaned more recently. It was noted by the surveyor that there was a sign directly under each of the filters which stated, Clean filter daily. Neither the Housekeeping Director nor the corporate Environmental Services Director-in-Training were able to tell the surveyor when the filters had been cleaned last. 4. Initial assessment of the dryers revealed the first dryer had a gasket which was torn and jagged, causing a surface which was unable to be kept clean. This dryer also had a drum which appeared to be rusted and burned and had unidentified melted substances around the entire surface. The Housekeeping Director stated this dryer was in the process of being serviced and that the staff had been instructed to not use it unless necessary. He further stated a component of the drum was broken and it would only spin one way which caused the drum to become burned and have the substances melted to it. 5. Observation of the second dryer revealed this dryer's drum contained unidentified melted substances around the entire surface as well. The facility's Administrator provided copies of the work orders for the first washing machine and first dryer, both work orders were dated 02/01/23. Photographic evidence obtained. The Administrator stated she did not know how long these machines had been out-of-service. An interview was conducted on 02/09/23 at 9:17 AM with the facility's Maintenance Director who stated the first washing machine had been down for approximately four weeks. When asked why the work order was dated 02/01/23, he stated the original email with the original date was lost, and what was provided to the surveyor was a new email that had been sent to the facility and that was why it contained a new date. He stated the washing machine is broken because the computer was damaged due to the chemicals leaking from the lines which had rusted off. He said the leaking, rusted lines had also

damaged wires inside the washing machine's door. He further stated the door wires had already been replaced, the chemical lines were going to be replaced, and that the facility was waiting on a new computer to be delivered for the washing machine. The Maintenance Director then stated he told the Housekeeping Director that the surveyors would be touring the laundry on Wednesday and that they should clean up the laundry room early in the week. The Maintenance Director became upset during this interview and stated the tour of the laundry room should not have happened on 02/08/23 without him. The surveyor explained that he was requested but the Administrator did not call him. The Maintenance Director then stated the Housekeeping Director did not know the proper responses and that he was responsible (referring to himself) for the maintenance of the laundry room. In an interview with a staff person in the laundry room at 9:43 AM, he stated he is not responsible for the care and maintenance of the laundry. A secondary tour of the laundry facility was conducted on 02/09/23 at 9:30 AM with the Maintenance Director and another surveyor. The following additional areas of concern were observed, and photographic evidence was obtained: 6. The Maintenance Director stated and it was observed that the dryer drums had been cleaned, but the drum in the first dryer continued to have a rusted and burned appearance. Further observation of the lint area below the first dryer revealed mounds of dark, burned unidentified brown substance. When the surveyors showed this to the Maintenance Director, he became upset and stated he would have to pull the whole drum out to service this area of concern. The Maintenance Director further stated the first dryer is not broken and he did not know why the Housekeeping Director would tell the surveyors that it was broken. When the surveyor asked why there was a work order for the dryer if it was not broken, the Maintenance Director did not respond. 7. In the washing machine room, it was observed that the drainage area behind both washing machines was caked with an unidentified substance which was peeling off. Further observation of the drain behind the second washing machine revealed a build-up of debris, including dirty gloves, packages, caps, coins, and papers. This drain area also had a back-up of milky water. The Maintenance Director stated he had cleaned this area one week ago. He further stated that it is not his responsibility to clean the laundry room but it is the responsibility of the housekeeping staff. When asked why the laundry room is in this state if it was cleaned one week ago, the Maintenance Director became upset and stated it is because the housekeeping staff is not keeping up with it.
