F 0812 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Procure food from sources approved or considered satisfactory and store, prepare, distribute and serve food in accordance with professional standards. Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure food was safely stored, labeled, or discarded in the areas of the kitchen and walk-in cooler. Residents Affected - Few Findings include: During an observation while conducting an initial tour of the kitchen on 3/10/25 at 10:05 AM with the Certified Dietary Manager (CDM), there were one large container of sour cream on a shelf with an expiration date of 3/2/25 and three rolls of a meat product on another shelf without an identifying label in the walk-in cooler. In the walk-in freezer, there was one bag of tots that had a hole exposing the food product to the elements that could result in freezer burn. On the bread rack, there were two partial loaves of bread that did not have an expiration date on the package and were not labeled with the open date. During an interview on 3/10/25 at 10:10 AM, the CDM confirmed the products identified as expired and/or not labeled. The CDM stated that the container of sour cream should have been discarded on 3/2/25 and the rolls of meat were turkey and should have had an identifying label as the product was out of the original container and the bread should have had an open date on each package. During an interview on 3/12/25 at 8:17 AM, when requested for the policy and procedures related to food storage, the Registered Dietician (RD) stated the facility goes by the Food Code and not a particular policy. Review of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration' s (FDA) Food Code and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's (CDC) food safety guidance as national standards to procure, store, prepare, distribute, and serve food in long term care facilities in a safe and sanitary manner showed it read, Food Receiving and Storage - When food, food products or beverages are delivered to the nursing home, facility staff must inspect these items for safe transport and quality upon receipt and ensure their proper storage, keeping track of when to discard perishable foods and covering, labeling, and dating all PHF/TCS foods stored in the refrigerator or freezer as indicated.
