Procure food from sources approved or considered satisfactory and store, prepare, distribute and serve food in accordance with professional standards.
Based on observation and staff interviews, it was determined the facility failed to maintain acceptable practices for the storage and service of food to prevent the potential for contamination and microbial growth
in food, which increased the risk of food-borne illness in the food and nutrition services department and three of five resident pantry areas (Nursing Units Medbridge Hall, A Hall, and B Hall). Findings include: Food safety and inspection standards for safe food handling indicate that everything that comes in contact with food must be kept clean, and food that is mishandled can lead to foodborne illness. Safe steps in food handling, cooking, and storage are essential in preventing foodborne illness. You cannot always see, smell, or taste harmful bacteria that may cause illness, according to the USDA (The United States Department of Agriculture, also known as the Agriculture Department, is the U.S. federal executive department responsible for developing and executing federal laws related to food). Observations on September 25, 2025, at 8:28 AM revealed the kitchen floor with dirt, discolorations, dust, and food pieces along the kitchen floor perimeter. Observations on September 25, 2025, at 8:36 revealed the A Hall pantry with an opened, undated chocolate instant pudding mix; cabinets with dust and discolorations; a refrigerator with substance stains and discolorations; and a microwave with used brown napkins and substance stains inside and around the exterior of the appliance. Observations on September 25, 2025, at 8:43 AM revealed the B Hall pantry with an opened plastic bag containing white crackers, a microwave with food substance stains and pieces of food, and a refrigerator with a soiled brown paper towel. Observations of September 25, 2025, at 10:12 AM revealed the Medbridge Hall pantry with an undated plastic bowl containing a tan food in the refrigerator. The refrigerator had brown-red substance stains along the bottom shelf and an undated frozen liquid drink in the freezer. The microwave was observed with food pieces and a substance stain on the interior of the appliance. An interview with the nursing home administrator on September 25, 2025, at 10:45 AM confirmed the food and nutrition services department and resident pantry areas were to be maintained
in a sanitary manner and confirmed food items were to be dated to ensure quality and food safety to prevent opportunities for foodborne illness. 28 Pa Code 211.6(f) Dietary services. 28 Pa Code 210.18 (e) (2.1) Management.
