F 0801 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Employ sufficient staff with the appropriate competencies and skills sets to carry out the functions of the food and nutrition service, including a qualified dietician. Based on review of the facility job description, personnel record review, and staff interview, the facility failed to ensure a qualified person was designated to serve as the director of food and nutrition services. This had the potential to affect all 68 residents residing in the facility. Findings Include: Review of the undated facility job description for Director of Dining Services revealed the Director of Dining Services was responsible for controlling and supervision the dining services to ensure the provision of quality of food service and nutritional care. Essential functions included ensuring cleanliness and sanitary work habits of dietary personnel, inspecting the entire department regularly to ensure safe, sanitary, and orderly conditions were maintained, and maintaining required records and reports. Requirements included: a bachelor's degree was preferred, two to three years of supervisory experience in hospital or long term care facility department was desirable, and applicant must have either a degree in dietetics or related area from a university/college approved by Commission on Dietetic Registration preferred, Dietetic Technician Registered certification desirable, possess a certified dietary manager certification, or has a similar national certification for food service management and safety from a national certifying body, and must obtain and maintain mandatory state/federal requirements and certifications for practice. Review of the personal file for Director of Dietary (DD) #701 revealed the DD #701 was not a certified dietary manager or certified food service manager. DD #701 did not hold an associate's or higher degree in food service management or in hospitality. DD #701 did not have two or more years of experience in the position of director of food and nutrition services in a nursing facility setting. DD #701 had completed a course of study in food safety on 02/28/14, however, the certification expired on 02/28/19. DD #701 was noted to have over 20 years of experience as a cook in a nursing home or independent living kitchens. Review of the list of staff for the facility revealed the facility employed a part time registered dietician who worked at the facility two days a week. Interview on 03/16/23 at 10:30 A.M. with the Administrator verified the lack of necessary qualifications for DD #701 to serve as the Director of Dining Services, and the RD only worked at the facility two days a week This deficiency resulted from incidental findings during the investigation of Complaint Number OH00143294.

F 0804 Ensure food and drink is palatable, attractive, and at a safe and appetizing temperature. Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Based on observations, interviews, facility food temperature logs review, and facility policy, the facility failed to ensure food items were served at palatable temperature which had the potential to affect all 67 residents who received food from the kitchen. The facility identified Resident #67 as receiving nothing by mouth. The facility census was 68. Residents Affected - Many Findings include: Interview on 06/05/23 at 10:34 A.M. revealed Resident #61 felt the food was cold sometimes. Observation was conducted on 06/05/23 from 5:00 P.M. to 5:40 P.M. of dietary staff plating the lunch meal from a steam table in the second-floor unit dining room. As the tray line neared an end, the surveyor requested a test tray be prepared and placed on the second-floor room tray food cart. Observation was made as the test tray was prepared, placed on the cart at 5:31 P.M., transported, and arrived at 5:32 P.M. to second floor room location where those room trays were going to be passed. The test tray remained on the cart in view of the surveyor, until all other trays were distributed to residents. The test tray was removed from the cart at 5:36 P.M. by Dietary Director (DD) #701 who confirmed with a facility thermometer the turkey was 120 degrees Fahrenheit (F), mashed potatoes were 120 degrees F, the beets were 119 degrees F, the milk was 46.9 degrees F, and the coffee was 153 degrees F. Immediately following confirmation of the test tray temperatures, the surveyor taste-tested the turkey, mashed potatoes, and beets. All items were found to have appropriate texture and flavor but were not at a palatable temperature since all items did not taste hot and were barely warm. At the time of observation, DD #701 confirmed the food items could be warmer, the facility used to have plate warmers in the past, and she had never done a test tray to ensure food was being served at an appropriate temperature. Interview on 06/06/23 at 9:36 A.M. with Social Services #704 revealed the food could be better and the biggest complaint from residents was the food was cold. Interview on 06/06/23 at 10:05 A.M. with Licensed Practical Nurse #315 revealed the food was cold especially at dinner and some items, like fish, don't appear to be cooked thoroughly. Interview on 06/06/23 at 1:40 P.M. revealed Residents #57 and #58 felt the food was cold when they received their room trays. Interview on 06/06/23 at 2:45 P.M. revealed STNA #647 had heard lots of food complaints from residents, which were mostly directed at the dinner meal with items being cold and not being cooked correctly. Review of the facility concern log from 03/20/23 to 05/31/23 revealed on 04/12/33 Residents #57 and #58 felt food was often served cold in their rooms and were told to go to the unit dining room for warmer food. Review of May 2023 food temperature logs in the main kitchen revealed dinner food temperatures had only been recorded nine out of 31 dinners served to the residents. Review of May 2023 food temperature logs in the ground floor servery revealed dinner food temperatures had only been recorded seven out of 31 days.

F 0804 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Many Review of May 2023 food temperature logs in the second floor servery revealed dinner food temperatures had only been recorded 11 out of 31 days. Interview on 06/06/23 at 11:31 A.M. with the Director of Dietary #701 confirmed the food temperature logs for meal items served out of the main kitchen and in the servery on the ground floor and second floor had many days where the dinner meal items were not recorded. Since the meal item temperatures had not been recorded for those meals, she could not ensure those items were properly cooked. Director of Dietary #701 stated it was her job to ensure temperatures of meal items were being recorded but she had fallen behind on checking them. Review of facility policy Food and Drink, revised 12/17/18, revealed food and drink would be palatable, attractive, and at a safe and appetizing temperature. The temperatures of the food items would be taken and properly recorded for each meal. Hot food items would be greater than 135 degrees Fahrenheit (F) when leaving the hot holding serving system. Cold food temperatures would leave the serving area at or below 41 degrees F. This deficiency represents non-compliance investigated under Complaint Number OH00143294.

F 0812 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Many servery with DD #701 revealed while taking the food temperatures of the items in the steam table, DE #419 had taken the cover off of the thermometer and placed the thermometer probe in the turkey, then in the beets, then in the mashed potatoes and then in the gravy. After taking the temperature of the gravy, DE #419 was observed taking an alcohol swab and wiping the gravy residue off the thermometer probe. DE #419 then took the temperature of the ground turkey and then the grilled cheese. DE #419 was observed wiping the thermometer probe with an alcohol swab prior to putting the thermometer away. Interview at the time of observation with DE #419 revealed he only wiped the thermometer probe with an alcohol swab prior to putting it away unless he needed to clean some residue off the probe. Interview with DD #701 during the observation revealed the thermometer probe should have been wiped with an alcohol between different items to prevent cross contamination. According to Servsafe Manager. 7th ed., National Restaurant Association Education Foundation, 2018, thermometers must be sanitized before and after using to prevent cross contamination (page 4.9). This deficiency was a result of incidental findings investigated under Complaint Number OH00143294.
