Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to prevent the potential for cross-contamination and foodborne illness to maintain a can opener and mixer in a safe sanitary condition These failures have the potential to affect all 34 residents residing in the facility.

On 10/13/22 at 10:55 am V5, Certified Dietary Manager/Director of Dining Services (CDM) toured the kitchen. V5, CDM confirmed the free standing commercial size four foot tall mixer was clean and ready for use. The commercial mixer had an approximately six inch long, four inch diameter mixer attachment holder. The attachment holder placement was directly over the extra large multi-gallon mixing bowl. The attachment holder neck had paint chipped off , exposed metal and patches of a rust-like substance. The mixer attachment holder was held in place with two extra large, approximately one and a half inch bolts that were corroded with a rust-like substance. V5, Certified Dietary Manager stated, I don't know what we can do to fix the problem. We may have to have the attachment neck sand blasted and recoated. It is not going to be used again until I get it cleaned up. The Resident Census and Conditions of Residents report dated 10/11/22 documents 34 residents residing in the facility.
