Set up an ongoing quality assessment and assurance group to review quality deficiencies and develop
corrective plans of action.
Based on observations, interviews and record review, the facility failed to demonstrate effective action plans
were implemented to correct identified quality deficiencies in the problem area related to repeated deficient
practices for F812- Food Procurement, Store/Prepare/Serve - Sanitary and F867- Quality Assurance and
Performance Improvement (QAPI)/ Quality Assessment and Assurance (QAA). These repeated deficient
practices have the potential to affect all residents residing in the facility.
The findings included:
Review of the facility's survey history revealed, during a recertification survey with exit dated 01/11/ 2024,
F812 Food Procurement, Store/Prepare/Serve/ Sanitary was cited related the facility's failure to store food
under sanitary conditions related to a buildup of ice in the ice cream freezer with the potential to affect 139
out of 143 residents who eat orally residing in the facility at the time of that survey.
During this survey with an exit dated 05/22/2025, repeated deficient practice was identified for F812-Food
Procurement, Store/Prepare/Serve/Sanitary, related to the walk-in refrigerator containing flower bouquets
on the shelves among the fruits and vegetables which has the potential to affect 128 out of 133 residents

identified with existing need for improvement based on the committee's continued evaluation of their
performance improvement projects.
