Summary

The facility failed to store food in a sanitary manner as evidenced by observations in the walk-in freezer, where a large accumulation of ice was found on the fans and ceiling, extending down to the food boxes on the top shelf. This condition was observed on two consecutive days, with the ice buildup still present during the second observation. The Dietary Director confirmed the presence of the ice and stated that it is typically cleaned after lunch. The Nursing Home Administrator also confirmed the ongoing issue during an interview. No information about residents or their medical conditions was provided in relation to this deficiency. The deficiency was cited under 28 Pa. Code: 201.18(b)(3) Management and 28 Pa. Code 211.6(f) Dietary services.
