**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observations, interviews, and record reviews the facility failed to ensure food was stored, prepared, and or
distributed in accordance with professional standards for food service safety, for 1 of 1 facility's reviewed for
professional standards for food service safety, in that: 1. The snack cart had expired thickened tea available
for serving to residents and sandwiches without labels. 2. One gallon of unidentified juice dated 06/30/2025
was located in walk-in cooler, unknown if that was the open date, prepared date or use by date. 3. Pantry
items were improperly stored on the floor without the use of a pallet to include 1 case of canned [NAME]
Pasado beans, 1 case of canned pie filling, 1 case of oatmeal cream pies, 1 case of dill pickle relish, 1 case
of quaker oats, 1 case of yellow frying corn. This failure could place residents at risk for food borne illness.
The findings included: During an observation and interview on 7/15/2025 at 4:30 PM of the facility's pantry
room revealed a wheeled snack cart with a bottle of half empty thickened iced tea beverage with a
handwritten date of 6/21/2025. Further review of the bottles label revealed, Storage and handling: store in
cool, dry, place. Refrigerate unused portion. Discard if not used within 10 days of opening. Further
observation revealed the cart had six peanut butter and jelly sandwiches in clear plastic bags. The
sandwiches were without labels. LVN B stated the bottle of iced tea, and the sandwiches were available to
be served to residents. LVN B stated the bottle of iced tea was dated 6/21/2025 and the manufactures label
stated to discard after 10 days of opening the bottle. LVN A stated she did not know if the date on the bottle
was when the kitchen received the bottle from the supplier or if the date indicated when the bottle was
opened. LVN B stated the six sandwiches had no labels to indicate when the sandwiches were made or
when they should be discarded. LVN B stated she did not know if the sandwiches were safe to serve and
would report to the FSM. During an observation and interview on 7/15/2025 at 4:40 PM the FSM received a
report from LVN B along with the bottle of iced tea from the snack cart. The FSM stated the kitchen made
and distributed snacks three times a day to include snacks after breakfast, after lunch and after dinner. The
FSM stated the leftover snacks would be discarded when the fresh snacks were delivered. The FSM stated
the sandwiches should have a date label to indicate when they were made. If staff identified sandwiches
older than 24 hours, the sandwiches would be discarded. The FSM stated the sandwiches that did not have
a date should be discarded. The FSM stated the kitchen ordered and received thickened liquids to include
iced tea. The FSM stated the bottles were labeled with a handwritten marker with the date they were
received from the supplier. The FSM stated the bottle should be dated with the date the bottle was opened
as well. The FSM stated the 1/2 full bottle of iced tea with only 1 date, 6/21/2025, should be discarded
because the open date was not on the bottle and thus could not be identified if the bottle was more than 10
