Summary

The facility failed to ensure that hand washing fixtures in the food preparation areas of the kitchen were compliant with regulatory requirements. During a recertification survey, it was observed that two out of three sinks in the food prep areas were equipped with 3-inch long blade handles instead of the required 4-inch wrist blade handles. This deficiency was noted during a tour of the kitchen, indicating non-compliance with the specified plumbing fixture standards for areas used by food handlers.
