Colonial Manor of Randolph: Abuse Reporting Failures - NE
That person was the facility's operations manager.
Inspectors reviewing the dietary schedule for September 2025 found the operations manager had worked as the evening cook on September 5, as the day shift cook on September 6, and covered both the day and evening shifts on September 7. She returned to cook the day shift again on September 13.
When inspectors interviewed her on October 2, she confirmed she had been filling in as the interim dietary manager since the previous dietary manager left the month before. The facility had been unable to hire a replacement.
She had received no training for either role. She had not reached out to the facility's registered dietitian for guidance on menu changes or resident nutritional needs.
The kitchen staffing problems ran deeper than one position. The facility's interdisciplinary team, which typically handles clinical care coordination, had been pulled in to cover dietary aide duties. Those staff members received training on safe dishwasher temperatures and how to complete the dishwasher temperature logs, but the core problem, no qualified person overseeing what residents were eating or how it was prepared, remained unresolved at the time of the November inspection.
CMS rated the violation as having potential for actual harm and noted it affected many residents.
The operations manager did not describe any plan to fill the dietary manager vacancy or obtain the training she lacked.

Data source: This article is based on inspection data downloaded directly from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) via Medicare.gov. CMS releases inspection reports in bulk; we publish the findings as documented by state surveyors in the official Form CMS-2567 Statement of Deficiencies.
Plan of correction: The CMS report we receive does not include the facility's plan of correction. Facilities submit plans of correction separately to state survey agencies and those responses may not be reflected in CMS data at the time of publication. The absence of a plan of correction in our data does not mean one was not filed. Readers who want information about corrective steps taken are encouraged to contact the facility directly or their state survey agency.

Facilities may have implemented corrections, staffing changes, additional training, or other remediation since the report was issued.
