Summary
During an inspection of the facility's kitchen, surveyors observed multiple food safety concerns. In the freezer, two Ziplock bags containing hamburger patties and one containing chicken strips, as well as a bag of potato wedges, were found unsealed and left wide open, exposing the food to air. Additionally, two of the four cutting boards in the kitchen had deep grooves and scratches, while the other two had multiple scratches, compromising their sanitary condition. Dietary staff confirmed awareness that freezer items should be sealed and acknowledged the need for cutting boards to be free from grooves and scratches.
