Wyndmoor Hills Rehab: Mouse Droppings in Kitchen - PA
Inspectors arrived at Wyndmoor Hills Rehabilitation and Nursing Center at 9:20 a.m. and found mouse droppings in two separate areas of the main kitchen floor. The kitchen, the report stated, was unclean and unsanitary.
The dietary director, identified in the report as Employee 7, confirmed the droppings were present in multiple areas. Asked about the state of the floor, she said the cleaning schedule runs on a rotation of focus areas, things like ceiling tiles, and that staff "just know what needs to be done." The floor, she acknowledged, had not been cleaned.
By midday, inspectors sat down with the nursing home administrator. The administrator confirmed what the dietary director had already said: the facility was aware it had a rodent problem.
The inspection was complaint-driven, meaning someone, a resident, a family member, or a staff member, contacted regulators before surveyors ever walked through the door. The report does not say how long the droppings had been accumulating, or whether food preparation had continued in the kitchen during that period.
The violation was cited under Pennsylvania's management standards for nursing facilities and classified as causing minimal harm or the potential for actual harm, affecting some residents. That classification sits at the lower end of the severity scale, but it does not mean residents were unaffected. The kitchen serves the entire facility.
The dietary director's explanation, that staff simply know what needs to be done, did not account for what inspectors found on the floor that Monday morning.

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.
Corrections may have occurred: Inspection reports reflect conditions observed on the date of the survey. Facilities may have implemented corrections, staffing changes, additional training, or other remediation since the report was issued. We report what CMS provides and encourage readers to seek current information from the facility.
Editorial process: Inspection findings are extracted from CMS source documents and synthesized using AI, reviewed for factual accuracy against the original report by our editorial team.
