for Week 1 through Week 3. No dates on menu to indicate if Week 4 was the current week for the menu cycle.

In an observation on 12/22/25 at 11:05 AM, noted two pages of menus (double-sided copies) posted on the wall of the main dining room. The menu visible on the outside was for Week 4. Note the pages were stapled together and would require a person to flip through the remaining pages to view the menus for Week 1 through Week 3. No dates on menu to indicate if Week 4 was the current week for the menu cycle.

On 12/22/25 at 9:31 AM, an interview with Assistant Manager of Dietary Services (AMDS) PP, regarding menu inconsistency, found that some newer staff have had issues following which week of the menu the facility has been on, and instead have made meals from different weeks. This not only doesn't follow the menu but can change what the kitchen has available to make for the meals on the menu that week.
