F 0812 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Many FORM CMS-2567 (02/99) Previous Versions Obsolete Procure food from sources approved or considered satisfactory and store, prepare, distribute and serve food in accordance with professional standards. Based on observation and staff interviews, it was determined the facility failed to maintain acceptable practices for the storage and service of food to prevent the potential for contamination and microbial growth in food, which increased the risk of food-borne illness in the food and nutrition services department and three of five resident pantry areas (Nursing Units Medbridge Hall, A Hall, and B Hall). Findings include: Food safety and inspection standards for safe food handling indicate that everything that comes in contact with food must be kept clean, and food that is mishandled can lead to foodborne illness. Safe steps in food handling, cooking, and storage are essential in preventing foodborne illness. You cannot always see, smell, or taste harmful bacteria that may cause illness, according to the USDA (The United States Department of Agriculture, also known as the Agriculture Department, is the U.S. federal executive department responsible for developing and executing federal laws related to food).
