Summary

The facility failed to follow the posted menu and meal spreadsheet when they ran out of regular consistency carrots while plating meals for lunch. The menu for the day specified Swedish meatballs with gravy, buttered noodles, and sliced carrots. During the lunch meal service, it was observed that the last serving of regular consistency carrots was plated before all residents on the 300 hall had been served, resulting in 7-9 residents not receiving the menu-specified carrots. Instead, capri vegetables (mixed vegetables) were prepared and served as a substitute. The cook reported that she normally needed six bags of carrots but only had five available for the meal. She did not notify the Dietary Manager about the shortage until the tray line had already started. The Dietary Manager confirmed that, had she been notified earlier, additional carrots could have been purchased to meet the menu requirements. The Administrator stated that the posted menu should be followed and that the cook should have communicated the shortage as soon as it was identified.
