SUMMARY STATEMENT OF DEFICIENCIES
Based on observations, staff interviews and policy review, the facility failed to ensure the dishwasher was adequately sanitizing dishes.
This had the potential to affect all 33 residents residing in the facility who receive meals from the kitchen.
The facility census was 33.
Findings include: Observation with Dietary Aid (DA) #39 of the dishwasher on 12/29/25 at 8:12 A.M. revealed the dishwasher contained a manufactures label that read Minimum Temperature 120 degrees Fahrenheit (F) and sanitizer at 50 parts per million (ppm).
The temperature observed during operation was observed three times with the maximum temperature for the wash at 110 degrees F and rinse was 115 degrees F.

Interview on 12/29/25 at 8:28 A.M. with DA #39 revealed he set up the dishwasher that morning and was able to demonstrate how to turn the dishwasher on. DA #39 stated he had not checked the water temperature or the sanitizer and was unsure how.
