census was 90.
Findings include:
Observation of the kitchen area on 12/15/24 between 7:30 A.M. and 8:00 A.M. with Dietary Aides (DA)
#600 and #601 revealed the following that was verified at the time of discovery;
- A large puddle of water was noted in the facility's dishwasher area. DA #600 explained that a drain to the
dishwasher had not been working for some time. DA #600 estimated months and thus created a pool of
water in the area.
- The sanitizer bucket underneath the dishwasher was open and had a swarm of fruit flies around the lid of
the bucket.

bacon was noted to be lying in a pool of water on the steam table that was yellow in color and had many
noticeable food particles floating in the water.

could not see in or out of the door.

- In the dry storage area, an undated container of cherries and two undated and opened bottles of vanilla
