Honor the resident's right to a dignified existence, self-determination, communication, and to exercise his or
her rights.
Based on record review, observation and interviews, the facility failed to ensure the residents on the
secured unit had a dignified dining experience. This affected eleven (Resident's #5, #7, #14, #27, #30, #36,
#46, #47, #50, #51 and #53) eating in the dining room during the observations and had the potential to
affect all 13 residents living on the unit. The facility census was 65.
Findings include:
Record review was conducted of the resident council minutes dated 06/23/21 and 07/21/21 and signed by
the Administrator. A concern was noted on 06/23/21 residents would like to have their dining room trays
come out with the person they sit with. It was noted to resolve the problem a seating chart was put in the
kitchen to assist with loading up trays in an orderly fashion. On 07/21/21 minutes it was noted the residents
stated their trays were coming out at a closer time with their lunch mates.
1. Observation was conducted on 09/27/21 from 8:15 A.M. to 8:53 A.M. of the breakfast meal service within
the secured unit. The meal consisted of cereal, eggs, toast, juice, milk, and other beverage choices. State
Tested Nursing Assistant (STNA) #72 began passing trays with a second STNA at 8:37 A.M. upon receiving
the tray cart from the kitchen. Resident #5 and Resident #51 were seated at a table together. Resident #5
received her tray at 8:40 A.M. At 8:46 A.M. her tablemate Resident #51 said to her where is my food? How
come you get yours and I don't? I am hungry. Can I have some of your bread? Resident #5 broke off a
piece of her soft bread and handed it to Resident #51 who said, oh it tastes like peanut butter and quickly
ate the bread. At 8:46 A.M. Resident #51 got her meal tray.
During this observation period the STNAs proceeded to serve other tables in the same fashion where only
one person would get served while the other resident at the table was without food. Resident #46 was
seated with Resident #36. Resident #36 had her meal and Resident #46 could be seen sitting with a
frowled face, throwing her hands in the air and saying, come on and she sat for several minutes watching
Resident #36 eat her meal. Upon initial observation of Resident #46 entering the dining room for the meal
she had presented as calm then developed the frowling facial expression as she watched her table mate
and others get served their food before her.
Interview was conducted on 09/27/21 at 8:54 A.M. with STNA #72 who verified the above findings. When
asked what her procedure was for passing trays in the dining room, she replied she takes one tray out at a
time and however the kitchen sends them out that is how she serves them. She verified there were two
residents seated at most of the tables and she did not serve each person at a table before moving onto the
next.
2. Observation was conducted on 09/29/21 at 12:20 P.M. of the lunch meal service within the secured

unit. The meal was cabbage rolls, mashed potato, vegetable blend, cake, and various beverages.
Registered Nurse (RN) #83 was the nurse on the unit and identified all eleven residents seated in the
dining room (Resident's #5, #7, #14, #27, #30, #36, #46, #47, #50, #51 and #53). Dietary Aide (DA) #41
was assisting in the dining room as the trays got delivered from the kitchen at 12:36 P.M. Resident #7 was
seated with Resident #47. Resident #7 was the first tray served at 12:38 P.M. At 12:42 P.M. Resident #47
began banging his knuckles of both hands on the table and made slapping hand motions over his head as
he watched Resident #7 eat and others around him eating their food. At 12:45 P.M. Resident #47 got his
tray. During this observation period the staff proceeded to serve other tables before making sure both
residents seated at a table had their food before moving onto the other tables.
Interview was conducted on 09/29/21 at 12:50 P.M. with DA #41 who verified she was passing the trays as
she pulled them out of the cart and not in order of the tables. When she was asked if she knew who sat at
each table, she showed the surveyor each resident's tray card with a table number on the back. When
asked why she did not serve one table at a time before moving onto the next she said she served them in
the order the trays were placed into the cart.

Procure food from sources approved or considered satisfactory and store, prepare, distribute and serve
food in accordance with professional standards.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
record review, observation, interviews and policy review, the facility failed to ensure food was stored,
prepared, and served under sanitary conditions. This had the potential to affect all 65 residents who
received food from the kitchen. The census was 65.
Findings include:
1. Initial tour of the kitchen was conducted on 09/27/21 5:58 A.M. to 6:25 A.M. with Registered Dietitian
(RD) #44. Above a stainless-steel food preparation table holding the uncovered meat slicer and food
processor was a heavily soiled ceiling and side wall of the hood fire suppression unit. The ceiling and side
wall had dried on splatters of food crumbs and staining. RD #44 said she believed while processing food
some had blown up to the ceiling and had not been cleaned up yet.
Next to the hand washing sink were two black plastic polymer dish carts having multiple dividers to
separate and stack dishes inside the carts. Both were uncovered, full of dishes and thermal dome covers
leaving the clean dishes and domes open for back splashing from the hand sink. The carts presented as
unwashed for an extended period, as the bottom had a heavy buildup of whitish-yellow crusting in the
crevices and various crumbs and unidentifiable crumb-like particles on the top of the carts and throughout
the inside.
Within the walk-in cooler were multiple packages of open cheeses either undated or outdated presenting as
evidence the cheese was not being rotated and discarded to prevent potential food borne illness sources.
An open bag of parmesan cheese within a Ziploc baggie was dated 07/28/21. An opened and partially used
block of yellow American cheese was wrapped in Saran Wrap and was undated. An open mozzarella
cheese was dated 08/30/21 and open provolone cheese was dated 08/22/21. RD #44 verified the findings
and threw out the items saying they usually go through the cooler on Mondays and toss out any outdated
food products. When asked if it was acceptable to have open cheese still in the cooler from 07/28/21,
08/22/21 and 08/30/21 she replied the kitchen went by manufacture use by dates if the packages were
unopened but once open those items should have been thrown out.
The facility provided the surveyor with an undated document titled Policy: Labeling and Discarding of
Commercial Food Items. The document stated leftover food should be labeled with the date it was opened
and first used and foods need to be discarded within seven days after the commercial product is opened
but no longer than the expiration date listed on package. The document gave no instructions for highly
perishable foods or time controls for safety for various refrigerated, prepared food items demonstrating a
lack of policy guidance to ensure food safety.
2. Observation of the general kitchen environment was conducted on 09/29/2021 from 9:31 A.M. to 9:49
A.M. with Dietary Supervisor (DM) #82 and RD #44. The meat slicer remained uncovered, and the dish
carts remained next to the hand sink and remained uncovered. The dish carts were still dirty with crumbs
and staining on the bottom and throughout the crevices in the plastic. Gnat traps were observed on the floor
behind the three-basin sink with evidence of heavy buildup of black, beige staining and crumbs where the
baseboard meets the floor. The uncleanliness of the perimeter of the floor where the baseboards met the
floor was noted to be pervasive throughout the kitchen especially behind the cooking ranges and
stainless-steel pan tables holding cooking pans. There was a silver bait box approximately eight inches long
and four inches wide for catching rodents behind a stainless-steel

preparation table next to the cooking ranges. There was a similar size silver bait box for catching rodents in
the dry stock room below a rack of dry breadcrumbs. A heavy collection of crumbs and accumulated
buildup of black dirt surrounded the bait box presenting as a concerning opportunity to attract pests to the
food supply. The entire perimeter of the dry stock room where the baseboards met the floor was heavily
collected with crumbs and dirt build up showing evidence it had gone a long while without proper attention.
Residents Affected - Many
During this observation DM #82 and RD #44 verified the findings. Both said they had not seen any rodents,
but gnats were an ongoing issue. DM #82 said she was in the process of hiring more staff for the kitchen
and she expressed she did put out daily assignment sheets for cleaning but did not really keep cleaning
lists.
Record review was conducted of the facility document titled Rae-[NAME] Dietary Cleaning Log dated
09/05/2021 to 09/30/2021. The log had zones for cleaning listed with the assigned employee position
responsible for those zones. It was void for any cleaning assignments specific to the kitchen floor and
ceiling.
Record review was conducted of the facility document titled State of Ohio Food Inspection Report dated
09/20/2021 and authored by Sanitarian #900. Sanitarian noted the kitchen was found out of compliance for
a lack of clean and sanitary food contact surfaces and carts holding plates being stored next to the hand
sink.
