Record review of an in-service titled Food temperatures dated on 09/26/25 with the dietary staff highlighted the purpose of the in-service was to ensure all dietary staff understood proper food temperature control and how it directly impacted resident satisfaction, safety, and compliance.
This in-service documented that it was used as a learning opportunity to reinforce the standards and prevent recurrence of the recent incident in which grilled cheese sandwiches and tomato soups were served cold.
Best practices indicated to take and document food temps before service begins, after transport, and on the line.
Always use a calibrated food thermometer.
Label and cover trays to retain heat and coordinate closely with nursing or dining teams to time delivery properly.
Lastly, never guess temperatures based on feel or appearance.
Record review of an in-service dated 09/29/25 revealed that the ADM educated all nursing staff on resident rights, abuse and neglect, and the policy on meal pass times and temperatures.
Record review of DM B's employee file reflected that on 10/6/25, DM B received a 90-day performance review that stated that while coaching and feedback were consistently provided, the outcomes have not met the expectations for a food service manager at [name] company.
Her areas of concern included the resident dissatisfaction regarding meal services, defensiveness or blame shifting when receiving feedback, raised tones and dismissive behavior towards staff that resulted in low morale and workplace tensions, and low progress to coaching sessions.
She was effectively demoted on 10/6/25 to the position as a cook. DM B refused to sign this document and her employment with the facility and the contracted dietary company was terminated.
Record review of a letter written by the ADM to whom it may concern from the contracted dietary company on 10/6/25 read that: Despite repeated attempts to address these issues through one-on-one discussions, progress has been limited. A primary barrier to resolution appears to be [DM B's] overall attitude and approach.
She frequently became defensive or agitated when concerns were raised, often providing excuses or shifting blame rather than working towards solutions.
Additionally, she had been observed raising her voice at her staff and had demonstrated dismissive or uncooperative behavior when approached by her nursing or administrative team members in collaboration.
Given the continued complaints, the influence of grievances, and the lack of meaningful improvement, it appears to be the best interest of the facility to move forward and parting ways with [DM B] at this time.
