Three Rivers Health: Medication Storage Violations - NC
Often, it did not.
Inspectors visiting the facility on January 28, 2026 found kitchen conditions that staff scrambled to address the same afternoon. The dietary manager told inspectors on January 29 that she had not documented monthly training huddles before January 22, 2026, and that the cleaning log was supposed to be posted weekly starting in December 2025 but never was, because of holiday events. The log covering January 1 through January 11 could not be found at all.
The evening cook, brought in early on January 29 to help clean, told inspectors that cooks were expected to clean up after themselves but that the deep cleaning checklist was inconsistently used. Some staff dated and signed their entries. Some did not. When the day shift missed cleaning tasks, he said, the evening shift was left to pick up the slack.
The deep fryer had been broken since January 4, running below proper temperature, and was not repaired until January 20 or 21. The dietary manager was not certain of the exact date. It was last cleaned on January 16, then used again on January 23 and January 27 before inspectors arrived.
The dietary manager acknowledged that rotating cleaning tasks each week had not worked because some staff simply did not do what they were assigned. The administrator, interviewed on January 30, said the cleaning schedules should be followed.
The inspection was completed January 30, 2026. CMS rated the harm level as minimal harm or potential for actual harm, with some residents affected.
The dietary manager said she planned to document huddles going forward.
