Summary

The facility failed to ensure proper disposal of garbage and refuse, as evidenced by observations during a tour of the Food Service Department. During the inspection, significant debris was noted around the trash compactor, including used latex gloves, paper, plastic waste, and piles of leaves. Additionally, large puddles of oily liquid were observed discharging from the trash compactor. These findings were confirmed in an interview with the Assistant Food Service Director, Employee E4.

Plan Of Correction

1. The area surrounding the trash compactor is clean and free from debris and oily liquids. 2. The Dining Manager or designee will conduct an audit on the area surrounding the trash compactor to ensure that it is clean and free of debris and oily liquids and in compliance with community policies and requirements by 2/28/25. 3. The Director of Dining or designee will provide re-education on community policies on properly disposing of garbage to dining team members by 3/10/25. 4. The Dining Manager or designee will complete an audit reviewing the area surrounding the trash compactor, ensuring that it is clean and free from debris and oily liquids weekly for 4 weeks and then monthly for 2 months. The results of these audits will be forwarded to the Quality Assurance Process Improvement team for review and recommendations.
