Failure to Serve Meals According to Planned Menu
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure meals were prepared and served according to the planned written menu, which affected the nutritional needs of residents on pureed and mechanical soft diets. During an observation on 8/20/2024, it was noted that the Dietary staff used incorrect scoop sizes when serving meals. Residents on mechanical soft diets were supposed to receive three ounces of chicken, but instead, they were served with a #30 scoop equivalent to 1.25 ounces. Similarly, residents on pureed diets were supposed to receive two #8 scoops of pureed chicken, but they were only given a single #8 scoop. The Dietary staff acknowledged the error, stating that they used the wrong scoop sizes and did not follow the menu instructions properly, despite having reviewed the menu before serving the meal.
Deficiencies in Hand Hygiene and Food Safety Practices
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure proper hand hygiene and food safety practices among dietary staff, which could potentially lead to foodborne illnesses affecting all 74 residents receiving meals from the kitchen. Observations revealed that dietary staff members handled clean plates without washing their hands after contaminating them by touching tray cards. This occurred on multiple occasions, indicating a lack of adherence to handwashing protocols as outlined in the facility's food safety policy. Additionally, the facility did not maintain the ice machine in a clean and sanitary condition, as evidenced by the presence of a wet black residue on areas where ice touched before dropping into the ice collector. This residue was easily transferable, suggesting inadequate cleaning practices. Furthermore, expired dressing packets were found in the refrigerator, indicating a failure to promptly remove or discard expired products, which could contribute to bacterial growth. These deficiencies highlight lapses in the facility's food safety and infection control measures.
