**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
interview and record review, the facility failed to ensure elevated blood sugar levels were called to the
physician as ordered. This affected Resident #10, one of five residents reviewed for unnecessary
medications. The facility census was 109.
Findings include:
Review of the medical record of Resident #10 revealed she was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with
diagnosis including diabetes mellitus. She was ordered insulin and blood sugar checks four times a day.
Review of the order for insulin doses corresponding to the blood sugar checks, dated 06/28/19, revealed
the physician was to be contacted if the resident's blood sugar was less than 60 milligrams per deciliter
(mg/dL) or more than 400 mg/dL.
Review of the resident's blood sugars for July 2019 revealed her blood sugar on 07/15/19 at 9:00 P.M. was
426 mg/dL, on 07/26/19 at 4:00 P.M. was 487 mg/dL, on 07/31/19 at 4:00 P.M. was 444 mg/dL and at 9:00
P.M. was 435 mg/dL. In August 2019, the resident's blood sugar on 08/24/19 at 9:00 P.M. was 440 mg/dL,
on 08/25/19 at 9:00 P.M. was 461 mg/dL and on 08/29/19 at 9:00 P.M. was 408 mg/dL. For September
2019, the resident's blood sugar on 09/04/19 at 4:00 P.M. was 430 mg/dL. There was no evidence for these
high levels that the resident's physician or nurse practioner was notified.
An interview with the unit manager, Registered Nurse (RN) #607 on 09/12/19 at 1:30 P.M. verified the
record did not contain documentation of notification of the physician or nurse practioner of the blood sugar
levels as ordered.

Honor the resident's right to voice grievances without discrimination or reprisal and the facility must
establish a grievance policy and make prompt efforts to resolve grievances.
Based on record review, observation and interviews, the facility did not ensure the members of Resident
Council (Residents #21, #29, #37, #38, #52, #72, #89, #109 ) were well informed and had access to
information on how to file an official grievance or complaint with the facility administration. This had the
potential to affect all residents in the facility. The facility census was 109.
Findings include:
Interviews were conducted on 09/11/19 from 10:30 A.M. to 10:59 A.M. with Residents #21, #29, #37, #38,
#52, #72, #89 and #109 as part of the Resident Council meeting with the state surveyor during the annual
survey. All the residents at the meeting were alert and oriented and actively participated in the meeting.
When the residents were asked if they knew how to file a grievance or official complaint with administration,
they unanimously responded they did not know how to file a grievance. When the residents were asked if
they had seen or knew where to find information on how to file a grievance, they unanimously responded
they did not know where to find that information.
Record review was conducted of the facility documents titled Resident Council Minutes, dated 09/27/18,
10/28/18, 11/29/18, 12/27/18, 01/31/19, 02/28/19, 03/28/19, 04/25/19, 05/30/19, 06/27/19, 07/25/19 and
08/29/19. There was no evidence in the documents the residents were provided information on how to file a
grievance or where to find that information in the facility.
An interview and observation were conducted on 09/11/19 from 3:18 P.M. to 3:24 P.M. with the
Administrator regarding where the facility posted information on how to file a grievance. The Administrator
pointed out a poster in the main entrance hallway. The white poster, measuring approximately 20 inches
long by 12 inches wide had printed black font so small it was illegible from a one foot distance. The poster
was hung at standing eye level so if a resident was seated in a wheelchair, it could not be read. The small,
printed words which addressed multiple topics covered the entire poster and at the very bottom were a few
small lines about the name and phone number of the Administrator with instructions to call with any
concerns. The Administrator verified the poster was in two locations on the facility walls, were the only
postings regarding how to launch a complaint or concerns and was not legible by anyone in a wheelchair or
visually challenged due to the placement on the wall and the font size. The Administrator added he was just
about to post new information specific to the residents right to know how to file a grievance, and it would be
reader friendly and easily accessible to the residents. The Administrator explained he was the Grievance
Officer and had no resident representative on the grievance committee.

review was conducted for Resident #68 who was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses including
stroke and major depression. The Minimum Data Set (MDS) 3.0 assessment dated [DATE] indicated
Resident #68 had cognitive impairment and required extensive assistance of two staff for bed mobility,
transfers and toileting.
Residents Affected - Many
An interview was conducted on 09/10/19 at 10:36 A.M. with Resident #97 who was the room mate of
Resident #68. During the annual survey's resident screening process, Resident #97 was asked if she had
ever been abused, neglected or made to feel humiliated or degraded by anyone in the facility. Resident #97
responded with I have not, but I reported something that happened to my room mate. She went on to say
one of the aides, STNA #829, a few weeks ago told Resident #68 she refused to change her dirty brief and
told her she would have to wait until the next shift came on because she did not have time to change her.
Resident #97 further explained her room mate sat in a soiled disposable brief from approximately 9:00 P.M.
to 11:30 P.M. when the next shift came on and a different STNA finally changed her. Resident #97 said she
reported it to RN #830 the next day saying STNA #829 refused to change her room mates soiled brief.
Observation and interview was conducted on 09/11/19 at 2:30 P.M. of Resident #68 who asked to be
interviewed at a later time due to her wanting to watch television and use the bathroom. Resident #68
appeared calm, clean, free from odors and wetness and had her personal items and call light within reach.
An interview was conducted on 09/12/19 at 9:39 A.M. with Resident #68 who was alert and oriented to the
conversation. When asked if anyone in the facility had ever made her feel humiliated, degraded or abused
she responded that one aide she identified by name as STNA #829 had changed her soiled brief one night.
Just after changing her brief Resident #68 had moved her bowels again and put her light on to get help
from staff. STNA #829 answered her call light and said to her that she just changed her, she did not have
time to change her again and she would have to wait until the next shift came on. Resident #68 stated she
felt ashamed and embarrassed and afraid to ask STNA #829 for help from that point forward. Resident #68
mentioned that STNA #829 seemed very stressed out and had been telling her and her room mate that she
worked a lot and was tired. Resident #68 said she felt safe in the facility, did not think that STNA #68 meant
to abuse her but did leave her sitting in a bowel movement for over one and one half hours until the next
shift came on. Resident #68 said she was afraid to refuse care from STNA#829 because she did not want
to cause any problems since she was bedridden and totally dependent on staff to care for her.
An interview was conducted on 09/12/19 at 12:02 P.M. with RN #830 who verified Resident #97 had
reported to her STNA #829 did not provide care to Resident #68 and told Resident #68 she was not going
to change her. RN #830 said she did not think it was abusive because that was STNA #829's personality to
say things like that to residents and sometimes STNA #829 would tell Resident #68 she had to stop
pooping so much. RN #830 revealed she did not report this to the administrator as alleged neglect.
An interview was conducted on 09/12/19 at 1:12 P.M. with the Administrator and Director of Nursing (DON)
who verified this had not been brought to their attention as a concern until the present day so they would
immediately open an investigation related to alleged neglect.

An interview and record review were conducted on 09/13/19 from 9:42 A.M. to 9:48 A.M. with the
Administrator who stated he had not yet filed the allegation with the state licensing agency as a Self
Reported Incident (SRI) but was going to do so today. The Administrator filed the SRI#180394 at 9:48 A.M.
Record review was conducted of the facility document titled Patient Protection. Abuse, Neglect,
Exploitation, Mistreatment and Misappropriation Prevention, dated 11/08/16, revealed the facility must
identify and thoroughly investigate suspected abuse, neglect, exploitation and misappropriation and report
allegations no later than two hours after the allegation is made.
Based on record review and staff interview, the facility failed to develop and implement a comprehensive
abuse policy and procedure to ensure adequate screening systems were in place for all employees prior to
hire. The facility failed to implement their abuse policy to ensure all employees were checked against the
Nurse Aide Registry for findings concerning abuse, neglect, exploitation, mistreatment of residents or
misappropriation of resident property, obtain reference checks and ensure a complete criminal background
check log was maintained. This affected 62 employees hired between 08/16/18 and 09/13/19 whose
personnel files were reviewed. Also, the facility failed to implement their abuse policy for potential abuse for
one resident (Resident #68) of one resident reviewed for abuse. This had the potential to affect all 109
residents residing in the facility.
Findings included:
1. Review of personnel files of employees hired between 08/16/18 through 09/13/19 revealed the following
employees currently employed did not have record of being checked against the Nurse Aide Registry:
Dietary Manager #610, Occupational Therapy Assistant #628, Physical Therapists #625, #642, Dietary
Aides #620, #621, #626, #627, #631, #644, #646, General Clerk #632, Cooks #633, #647, #900, and
Housekeeping #643. The following employees hired after 08/16/18 and worked at the facility during the time
frame between 08/16/18 to 09/13/19 but do not continue to work at the facility did not have record of being
checked against the Nurse Aide Registry: Hospitality Aides #802, #815, #816, and Social Service Designee
(SSD) #813.
Interview on 09/12/19 at 4:52 P.M. with Human Resource Director #700 verified she only checked State
Tested Nurses' Aides (STNA's) against the Nurse Aide Registry for findings concerning abuse, neglect,
exploitation, mistreatment of residents or misappropriation of resident property. She revealed she did not
know she needed to check all employees prior to hire against the registry.
2. Review of personnel file for STNA #629 with a hire date of 09/26/18 revealed she did not have any
reference checks in her record prior to hire.
Review of personnel file for Registered Nurse (RN) #616 with a hire date of 05/22/19 revealed she did not
have any reference checks in her record prior to hire.
Review of personnel file for Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) #649 with a hire date of 05/22/19 revealed she
did not have any reference checks in her record prior to hire.
Review of personnel file for Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) #617 with a hire date of 07/03/19 revealed
she did not have any reference checks in her record prior to hire.

3. Review of form titled, Background Check Tracking Log, revealed the facility's log was only from 03/29/19
to current 09/13/19.
Residents Affected - Many
Review of personnel files of employees hired between 08/16/18 through 09/13/19 revealed the following
employees currently employed were not on the background check log as they were hired from 08/16/18
through 03/29/19 and the facility did not have a log during this time frame that included these employees:
RN #636, LPN #623, #630, #637, STNA #622, #629, #634, #635, #638, #639, #640, #641, #645, #648,
General Clerk #632, Physical Therapist #642, and Dietary Aide #644. The following employees no longer

#813.
Interview on 09/12/19 at 2:51 P.M. with Human Resource Director (HRD) #700 revealed she started March
2019 and discovered the previous background check logs which were hand written were missing. She
verified they do not have a background check log from 08/16/18 through 03/29/19. She revealed
background checks were completed they just do not have a log for this time period.
Interview on 09/13/19 at 7:55 A.M. with the Administrator revealed the previous HRD maintained a handwritten background check log and when she became disgruntled upon separation of the facility the
background check log came up missing as well as other items in the personnel files. He verified they did not
have a background check log from 08/16/18 through 03/29/19.
Review of facility policy titled, Patient Protection Abuse, Neglect, Exploitation, Mistreatment, and
Misappropriation Prevention, dated 2016, revealed the facility failed to implement their policy as the facility
was to screen employees by checking with previous and current employees, checking state licensing
boards for nursing assistants and registries and criminal background check checks to identify and verify any
history of abuse, neglect, exploitation, mistreatment or misappropriation of patient property to reduce the
risk that no one was hired who was likely to abuse residents. The policy did not identify that all employees
must be checked against the Nurse Aide Registry.

Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
interview and record review, the facility failed to provide adequate care and treatment to manage diabetes
and ensure physician orders were followed related to insulin administration and blood sugar levels. This
affected one resident (Resident #57) out of three resident reviewed for blood sugar monitoring.
Residents Affected - Few
Findings include:
Resident #57 was admitted on [DATE] with diagnoses including displaced bimalleolar (ankle) fracture of
right lower leg, diabetes mellitus and obesity. A review of resident #57's clinical record indicated a physician
order dated 11/08/19 for Humalog insulin (to treat high blood sugar levels), 100 units per milliliter inject 27
units subcutaneously before meals for diabetes mellitus and to hold the administration of the insulin if the
blood glucose level was less than 200 milligrams (mg) per deciliter (dL).
A review of Resident #57's November 2019 Medication Administration Record (MAR) revealed on 11/10/19
at 8:00 A.M. the blood sugar measured 174 mg/dL, on 11/14/19 at 8:00 A.M. the blood sugar measured 195
mg/dL and on 11/12/19 at 4:00 P.M. the blood sugar measured 128 mg/dL. The nurse initialed on these
dates and times indicating the Humalog insulin, 27 units, was subcutaneously administered even though
the blood sugar was below 200 mg/dL.
A physician order dated 11/14/19 directed nursing staff to administer 27 units of Humalog insulin, 100 units
per milliliter, subcutaneously before meals for diabetes mellitus. The insulin was to be held for blood
glucose measurement of less than 200 mg/dL. A review of the November 2019 MAR revealed on 11/16/18
at 8:00 A.M. the blood sugar measured 175 mg/dL , at 11:00 A.M. the blood sugar measured 124 mg/dL,
and at 4:00 P.M. the blood sugar measured 118 mg/dL, on 11/17/19 at 8:00 A.M. the blood sugar measured
133 mg/dL, at 11:00 A.M. the blood sugar measured 176 mg/dL and at 4:00 P.M. the blood sugar measured
166 mg/dL, on 11/18/19 at 8:00 A.M. the blood sugar measured 176 mg/dL and on 11/19/19 at 11:00 A.M.
the blood sugar measured 185 mg/dL. The MAR indicated the nurses initialed the boxes, indicating the
Humalog insulin was administered on these dates and times when Resident #57's blood sugar measured
less than 200 mg/dL.
An interview with Director of Nursing on 11/19/19 at 4:00 P.M. verified the above findings.

**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
interview and record review, the facility failed to ensure an accurate pain assessment was completed for
Resident #30. This affected one of two residents reviewed for pain. The facility census was 109.
Residents Affected - Few
Findings include:
Review of the record revealed Resident #30 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses including
spinal stenosis, major depression and depression. Review of her quarterly Minimum Data Set (MDS) 3.0
assessment dated [DATE] revealed she was moderately cognitively impaired and had no symptoms or
complaints of pain.
Review of a nursing note dated 06/23/19 at 4:30 P.M. revealed the resident told a staff member that she fell
yesterday and had told the other nurse. She denied hitting her head or any injury. Review of the medication
administration record and computerized nursing notes dated 06/24/19 at 11:18 A.M. indicated the resident
was given Tylenol, two tablets, which was ordered for an elevated temperature. The note indicated the
resident refused repositioning or ice packs. Review of another linked medication administration note and
computerized nursing note revealed the medication was effective. The record did not contain any further
assessment of the reason for the administration of the Tylenol, assessment of the resident regarding an
elevated temperature or any other reason that she could have received the Tylenol.
Review of an order dated 06/24/19 at 11:59 A.M. revealed x-rays of the lumbar and thoracic spine were
ordered stat for diagnostics.
Review of a geri-psychiatric note dated 06/24/19 at 1:10 P.M. revealed the resident complained of level 5
pain in her back, and the psychologist explored pain management strategies, especially relaxation
techniques.
Review of the next nursing note on 06/24/19 at 11:23 P.M. revealed the nurse called the radiology service to
see their location and was told they should be in route.
A nursing note dated 06/25/19 at 1:49 A.M. revealed the resident was resting in bed with eyes closed. The
next note was dated 06/25/19 at 12:38 P.M. and indicated an order was given for a stat x-ray of the lumbar
spine and thoracic spine for status two days post fall. The order for that x-ray was entered on 06/25/19 at
12:31 P.M.
Review of the x-ray, which was obtained on 06/25/19 (no time given), revealed the resident had multi-level
compression deformities, age indeterminate of the lumbar spine and diffuse degenerative intervertebral
disc space narrowing of the thoracic spine.
The medication administration record indicated the resident received Tylenol on 06/25/19 at 4:32 P.M. for
pain of eight on a scale of ten being the worst pain and another dose of Tylenol on 06/25/19 at 10:10 P.M.
for pain, again at a level of eight.
The record did not initially contain computerized documentation from the nurse practioner or physician
regarding the incident of pain, but a handwritten note was provided to the surveyor upon questioning, dated
06/25/19, which indicated the resident had fallen on 06/22/19 with no injury initially,

but had increased reports of low back pain, and the resident had refused to get out of bed due to the pain
which was described as sharp pain at a level of eight.
Review of the record revealed a pain assessment was completed on 06/26/19 which indicated the resident
had pain up to a level of ten almost constantly over the past five days over her upper and lower back. The
assessment indicated over the counter medication, relaxation and warm or cool compresses were effective.
Another handwritten note by the nurse practioner dated 06/27/19 revealed the resident continued with
unrelieved pain due to intervertebral disc degeneration, spinal stenosis and compression deformities of the
lumbar region with topical relief measures ordered, including Aspercreme, an over the counter pain
medication and a medicated pain patch.
The resident continued receiving Tylenol and Aspercreme to her back. On 06/28/19 at 9:45 A.M., a note
indicated the nurse practioner was notified of uncontrolled pain and the resident was sent to the hospital
and admitted for observation, returning on 06/30/19.
Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) #612, who wrote the note regarding the order on 06/25/19, was interviewed
on 09/11/19 at 9:00 A.M. She indicated she remembered the resident had increased pain after the fall, and
as the resident did not frequently complain of anything, she felt the pain was probably bad if the resident
was relaying it to staff. She stated she did not remember hearing anything about the x-ray ordered on
06/24/19, regarding why it was not done, or if there were concerns with the order, but stated she put in a
new order stat as ordered by the nurse practioner. She verified she did not document an assessment of the
resident regarding the increase in pain.
An interview with Resident #30 on 09/11/19 at 9:15 P.M. revealed her in her room slightly confused, but
appeared comfortable. She did not remember the fall or how she felt after, but indicated she was
comfortable at the time of the interview.
An interview with LPN #611 on 09/12/19 at 1:30 P.M. revealed she had medicated Resident #30 on
06/23/19 for complaints of pain to her back. She stated the resident was hurting with every movement, but
she verified she did not document an assessment of the pain or it's affect on the resident. She said she
called the nurse practioner to let her know about the pain, which seemed to be related to the fall. She
verified she was given an order for x-rays. She stated she entered the x-ray orders in the computer, but
could not remember for sure if they were ordered as stat or if entering them as stat was a mistake.
The nurse who wrote the note on 06/24/19 at 11:23 P.M. no longer worked at the facility and could not be
interviewed.
An interview with the unit manager, Registered Nurse (RN) #607 on 09/12/19 at 10:15 A.M. verified the
record did not contain documentation of any type of pain assessment or notes regarding the resident's
condition and the development of pain after the fall on 06/22/19 through 06/26/19. She stated the resident
did not have pain until 06/24/19, when she told staff about pain in her back. RN #607 verified the record did
not indicate where the resident's pain was, how it was affecting her, or even that the Tylenol was given for
pain, as it was ordered for elevated temperature, and a pain level was not indicated on 06/24/19. She
verified the order for the x-ray on 06/24/19 was ordered stat meaning it should be done without delay. She
verified the the note by the nurse on 06/24/19 at 11:23 P.M. indicated the x-ray had not yet been done, but
the record did not indicate the resident's condition

Provide enough nursing staff every day to meet the needs of every resident; and have a licensed nurse in
charge on each shift.
Based on observation, interview and record review, the facility failed to ensure staff were available to meet
the needs of residents. This had the potential to affect all 109 residents who resided in the facility.
Residents Affected - Many
Findings include:
1. The surveyor entered the facility on 09/11/19 at 6:45 A.M. A resident, who identified herself as Resident
#20, was sitting in a wheelchair in the lobby. She told the surveyor she was waiting for a bus to pick her up
to take her to dialysis and asked the surveyor if she could ask the staff on the 100/200/300 unit to come talk
to her about what time the bus was to come. The surveyor walked toward the 100/200/300 unit. The unit
was dimly lit and quiet. Staff were noted in the three halls as the surveyor approached. When the surveyor
walked toward the large nursing station desk, a staff member, later identified as State Tested Nursing
Assistant (STNA) #617, was noted behind the approximately four foot high wall around the desk, sitting in a
chair with her head on the desk. The surveyor stated to the staff member, Excuse me, and Good morning,
and the employee did not raise her head.
The surveyor walked around the desk, toward the 200 hall, where a nurse was walking toward the nursing
station. The nurse, Registered Nurse (RN) #615, walked toward the surveyor and into the nursing station
and after asked about Resident #20, stated she didn't know details about the transportation and went into
the medication room. STNA #617 was still sitting at the desk with her head down as RN #615 walked by
her.
The surveyor walked down the 100 hall toward a nurse, RN #616. She stated she would check on Resident
#20's transportation and walked toward the nurse's station with the surveyor. STNA #617 was still at the
desk with her head down, but as RN #616 and the surveyor walked away, she was noted to sit up in her
chair and stretch her arm as if she was waking up.
The surveyor returned to the unit on 09/11/19 at 6:55 A.M. STNA #617 was in the hall. She verified she had
been sitting at the desk previously and may have fallen asleep, but said she had been on break. She said
she probably should have taken her break in another area.
An interview with RN #615 at 6:58 A.M. revealed she was unaware of the breaks taken by STNA #617
because she was not assigned to her hall and stated she had not seen her sleeping at the desk. She
verified she had walked through the nurse's station, and saw STNA #617 sitting there, but didn't notice that
she was sleeping. She verified employees should not sleep at the desk.
An interview with RN #616 at 7:05 A.M. revealed she did not see STNA #617 sleeping desk. She said she
was not assigned to her hall. She stated she had talked to STNA #617 in the past about sleeping on her
breaks. She verified employees should not sleep at the desk.
An interview with Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) #618 on 09/11/19 at 7:10 A.M. revealed STNA #617 was
assigned to his unit. He said she had breaks earlier in the shift, and although she had taken out the trash
around 6:30 A.M., he had not been told she was taking a break and verified she should not have been
sleeping at the desk. He stated he did not witness this, as he was at the end of the hall passing
medications.

and a test tray was requested and placed on the cart. The cart was moved to the 600 hall, arriving at 12:47
P.M. The last tray was passed to residents, and the test tray was removed at 12:52 P.M. and taken to a
small coffee room with two surveyors and Dietary Manager (DM) #610.
DM #610 checked the temperatures of the food as the surveyor tasted the food for temperature and
palatability. The spaghetti and meat sauce temperature was 137.5 degrees F and tasted lukewarm. The
Italian vegetables temperature was 122.7 degrees F and tasted cool. The garlic bread was room
temperature, having been placed on the plate with the hot food, but was slightly tough. The orange juice
tasted cool and the temperature was 58.3 degrees F.
DM #610 verified the food would not be hot, based on the temperatures obtained but declined to taste the
food. She also verified the juice had been obtained from an open cooler in the refrigerator. She stated the
facility had started keeping milk in ice tubs separate from the meal trays, but verified the juice, which had
been obtained from the refrigerator that was kept open and then transported in the closed cart, was not on
ice prior to service. She verified the food should taste hot when served.
A test tray was completed for the breakfast meal on 09/11/19 at 7:15 A.M. based on resident complaints of
food temperatures for breakfast. [NAME] #609 had already checked the temperatures of the food on the
steam table. The scrambled eggs temperature was 184 degrees F, and the cream of wheat was 198
degrees F. Toast was observed in a stainless steel container on the top of the steam table. Meal trays
started for the dining room at 7:20 A.M.
During observation of the preparation of meal carts for the floor, [NAME] #609 indicated that she needed to
make more toast. She put bread through a toasting machine, but approximately nine pieces of toast were
burned and discarded. [NAME] #609 indicated that it was difficult to regulate the temperature controls of the
toaster to obtain toast that was toasted lightly but not burned. She indicated she had written toaster on a
white board where supplies and food items were marked that were needed or needed to be ordered. She
indicated it was well known that the toaster was difficult to use and verified the delay in trying to get the
right amount of brown toast that was not burned often delayed the food line.
The surveyors observed the last tray made for the last cart for the 600 unit and requested a test tray. The
cart left the kitchen at 8:04 A.M. and arrived on the unit at 8:06 A.M. The last tray was served at 8:19 A.M.
The test tray was removed to the coffee room to check temperatures with [NAME] # 609 at 8:20 A.M.
The scrambled eggs temperature was 118 degrees F and the cream of wheat temperature was 109.6
degrees F. The eggs tasted lukewarm, and the cream of wheat was cool. The toast was toasted darkly, and
the outside edge was rimmed with a dark streak that tasted burned.
Cook #609 declined to taste the food but verified based on the temperatures, the food would not be hot.
She also verified the toast was darkly toasted and had a dark edge that could be burned.
An interview with DM #610 on 09/11/19 at 9:15 A.M. verified the concerns identified during the breakfast
meal service with temperatures. She denied knowledge of on-going concerns related to food temperatures.
She stated the facility had been checking food temperatures and had had no concerns. She also indicated
she was unaware of any concerns related to the toaster or any resident complaints of burned toast.
