F 0805 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Some Ensure each resident receives and the facility provides food prepared in a form designed to meet individual needs. Based on observation, staff interview, review of standardized recipes, review of facility pureed standards, and policy review, the facility failed to ensure pureed food recipes were followed and pureed foods were prepared appropriately. This had the potential to affect seven (#10, #20, #21, #23, #25, #35, and #270) out of seven residents identified by the facility as receiving pureed foods from the kitchen. The facility census was 66. Findings include: Observation and interview on 11/16/22 at 11:04 A.M. revealed [NAME] #253 added eight servings of peas to the food processor. [NAME] #253 then started the food processor and added a small amount of broth to the processor. [NAME] #253 stated she added a half teaspoon of broth for every eight ounces of peas. [NAME] #253 then removed the cover from the processor, stirred the contents, and stated she adds bread if needed to reach the desired consistency. [NAME] #253 added one slice of bread and pulsed the food processor. [NAME] #253 then poured the contents of the food processor, which appeared to have a liquid consistency, into a pan. [NAME] #253 stated she prefers an applesauce consistency when preparing pureed vegetables. Observation on 11/16/22 at 11:10 A.M. revealed [NAME] #253 placed eight servings of meatloaf in the food processor. [NAME] #253 then added seven slices of bread to the food processor and began to pulse the contents. [NAME] #23 then added approximately eight teaspoons of broth to the food processor. [NAME] #253 stated she prepares pureed meat to a pudding consistency. [NAME] #253 then scooped the contents of the food processor into a pan. Observation of tray line on 11/16/22 between 11:45 A.M. and 12:25 P.M. revealed pureed peas were scooped into divided plates and appeared in liquid form and immediately filled the bottom of the section of the divided plate. When divided plates were not used for pureed foods, the pureed peas were placed in a small bowl. Review of the recipe for pureeing peas revealed the desired number of servings should be added into the food processor and blended until smooth. Then, follow the directions on food thickener guidelines for liquid and thickener measurements. Review of the recipe for pureeing meatloaf revealed the desired number of servings should be added into the food processor and blended until smooth. Add liquid if the product needed thinning. Add commercial thickener if the product needed thickening. Interview on 11/16/22 at 12:07 P.M. with Speech Therapy (ST) #270 revealed the facility's pureed food had been runny. Interview on 11/16/22 at 1:12 P.M. with Culinary Director (CD) #226 verified the recipes for the pureed peas and pureed meatloaf indicated thickener was to be used for thickening if needed and made no mention of bread. CD #226 stated she did not receive thickener on the last food delivery.
