Sanitation and Vermin Control Deficiencies Identified Facility-Wide
Penalty
Summary
Surveyors identified multiple sanitation and maintenance deficiencies throughout the facility, including the presence of vermin droppings in the conference room, kitchen, and rehabilitation department. Observations revealed accumulated debris, food remnants, and water under kitchen equipment, as well as broken tiles and voids in the kitchen and laundry areas. Pest management company records indicated repeated recommendations to seal voids and improve sanitation, with documentation of ongoing issues such as unsealed holes and poor cleaning practices. The ice machine room was found with a wall void stuffed with steel wool, a wet dirty towel under the machine, and debris on the floor. Further inspection of the laundry area revealed rusted, broken metal trim with holes, broken tiles, a leaking sink with a bucket collecting drips, and accumulated lint and debris. The clean laundry room contained a dried spill, bottle cap, wrapper, and a shoe behind a linen cart. In the rehabilitation department, vermin droppings, a pistachio nut, and various debris were observed under the AC unit. These findings collectively demonstrate a failure to maintain a sanitary environment in multiple areas of the facility.
