F 0812 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Many Procure food from sources approved or considered satisfactory and store, prepare, distribute and serve food in accordance with professional standards. Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to store, prepare, distribute, and serve food in accordance with professional standards for food service safety for 1 of 1 kitchen reviewed for sanitation: 1. The facility failed to ensure utensils were clean. 2. The facility failed to keep accurate temperature and chemical logs for the dishwasher. 3. The facility failed to dispose of expired foods. These failures could place residents at risk of foodborne illnesses. Findings include: Observation of the kitchen and interview with the DM on 10/03/23 beginning at 11:30 a.m. revealed a DA pouring coffee into cups on 2 trays. One tray was done, the other cups on the other tray had a removable white residue in them. The DM removed the residue with his thumb. He stated they probably needed to adjust the bleach during the wash cycle. The DM stated the residents could get sick if they served beverages in dirty cups. The DM stated he assumed the white residue was bleach. The DM stated he would not want to drink from one of those cups. The refrigerators had a large, expired container of tomato sauce (identified by the DM) with a prep date of 09/25/23 and a use-by date of 09/29/23. There was a large, expired container of ketchup (identified by the DM) with a prep date of 09/26/23 and a use-by date of 10/01/23. There was a large, expired container of coleslaw (identified by the DM) with a prep date of 09/28/23 and a use-by date of 10/01/23. A record review of the dishwasher temperature logs dated from December 2022 to the present day revealed the same numbers in all columns, on all days and shifts. Observation of the DM on 10/03/23 at 11:47 a.m. when he took a chemical strip sample of the dishwasher and the result was 50 ppm. Interview with the DA on 10/03/23 at 11:35 a.m. stated she did not think the empty cups were clean and she was responsible for checking the cups before she poured beverages into them. An interview with the DM on 10/03/23 at 11:40 a.m. revealed his head cook was responsible for checking the dates on foods in the refrigerators every morning when she checked the refrigerator temperatures. The DM stated another cook took care of the refrigerators when his head cook was not there. The DM stated food had to be discarded or used before the use-by date because it was no longer safe to (continued on next page) Any deficiency statement ending with an asterisk (*) denotes a deficiency which the institution may be excused from correcting providing it is determined that other safeguards provide sufficient protection to the patients.

F 0812 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Many be consumed after the use-by date and could make the residents sick because bacteria could be growing by then. An interview with the HC on 10/03/23 at 11:45 a.m. revealed she had been off work for a couple of days. When asked if she had been here yesterday, she stated yes and shrugged her shoulders as to why she did not dispose of the expired foods in the refrigerator. Interview with the DM on 10/03/23 at 11:47 a.m. stated the logs did not look right, and that the numbers written for the temperatures and chemicals should have some variation; they should go up or down. The DM stated the dietary aids were responsible for entering accurate numbers in the logs. The DM stated the cooks were responsible for the aids, and he was responsible for the cooks and everyone else. The DM stated he had not looked at the logs since he started here 5-6 months ago because he assumed the staff were taking care of it. The DM stated the point of having temperature and chemical logs was to make sure everything was clean, the temperature was right (to get dishes clean), and the chlorine was right to disinfect and sanitize the dishes. The DM stated he would not be having this problem (residue in the dishes) if the logs were right. The DM stated it was important to have accurate logs, so they could follow trends and take care of problems before the problem. The DM stated he should have been looking at the logs. A request for in-services and training for temperatures and chemical logging for the dishwasher were requested. A record review of the dietary staff time sheets revealed the COOK worked 09/26/23-09/29/23 and recorded the refrigerator logs but did not dispose of the expired foods in the refrigerator. The HC worked on 10/02/23 and 10/03/23 and recorded refrigerator temperatures but did not dispose of the expired foods in the refrigerator. The COOK was unavailable for interview throughout this investigation. Record review of the dishwasher temperature logs dated from December 2022 to the present day revealed the same numbers in all columns, on all days and shifts. The morning wash temperatures and the final rinse temperatures were all documented to be 120F. All sanitizer documentation was 100 ppm. The exception was June 2023, three-compartment sink, where the water temperature was consistently 200F and the sanitizer was consistently 120 ppm. The three-compartment sink was checked twice daily instead of three times daily. There was missing documentation for the three-compartment sink for June 1-4, 15-18, 23-25, and 29 for the third service. There were no other logs provided for the three-compartment sink. There were no logs at all provided for the months of January, February, March, April, May, July, and October 2023. Record review of the facility policy titled, Food Receiving and Storage rev. 01/13 documented 7. All foods stored in the refrigerator or freezer will be covered, labeled, and dated (use by date). Record review of the facility policy titled, Mechanical Cleaning and Sanitizing of Utensils and Portable Equipment dated 10/01/18 documented: 7. a. The temperature of the wash water must be at least 120 degrees Fahrenheit. 7. f. A test kit or other device that accurately measures the parts per million concentrations of the solution must be available and used.
