Based on observations, staff interviews and record review, the facility did not ensure the kitchen and cooking equipment were maintained in a clean and sanitary manner related to the dishwashing machine not reaching the required hot water temperature which had the potential to negatively impact 75 of the 77 residents in the facility.
Findings included: On 10/27/20 at 9:45 AM, a tour of the kitchen was conducted with the Dining Manager and the Registered Dietician (RD). On 10/27/20 at 10:00 AM, Staff B, Dishwasher, was observed running the last load of breakfast dishes on the dishwashing machine. Staff B was requested to run the cycle again. The temperature gauge was noted rising to 122 degrees. The Dining Manager confirmed that the temperature of 122 degrees on a wash cycle was below the minimum requirement of 155 degrees. (photographic evidence obtained). During the observation, the Dining Manager intervened and stated the washer was working okay this morning. The temperature log was reviewed. A reading of 157 degrees for the wash and 185 for the rinse were documented for the date 10/27/20 on the breakfast wash column. The Dining Manager proceeded to run the machine a second time and the temperature gauge stopped at 122 degrees for the wash cycle and 160 for the rinse cycle. The Dining Manager reported that he would call and get it fixed right away. He stated, We will use disposables for serving meals until the dishwasher is fixed. At 10/27/20 at 10:10 AM, an observation was made of a posting on the wall by the dishwasher reading; the wash temperatures should be at a minimum of 155 degrees, and the rinse temperatures should be at a minimum of 180 degrees. An interview was conducted with the RD on 10/27/20 at 10:15 AM. She acknowledged the dishwasher temperature concern and stated that the vendor would be out by the end of the day. On 10/29/20 at 9:00 AM, an interview was conducted with the Nursing Home Administrator (NHA) who brought the invoice to show the dishwasher had been repaired.
