Summary
Surveyors observed that the dumpster area was not maintained in a sanitary condition. The lid of the dumpster and the enclosure were both left open, and there was significant debris, including cups, plastic wrap, gloves, and food wrappers, scattered around the dumpster inside the enclosure. The Dietary Manager confirmed these findings during the observation and stated that the maintenance director was responsible for the upkeep of the dumpster area. This deficiency had the potential to affect all residents in the facility, which had a census of 48 at the time of the survey.
