Summary
Surveyor observations identified that the facility failed to maintain a safe, functional, and comfortable environment in both the main kitchen and one of three kitchenettes. In the main kitchen, the walk-in freezer was found to have an accumulation of ice buildup on the sprinkler head and the left fan near the ceiling, as confirmed by the Food Service Director (FSD) during the inspection. Additionally, in the Jamestown Unit Kitchenette, a microwave mounted above the counter was observed to be severely cracked with peeling paint on its exterior, which was also acknowledged by the FSD. These conditions were directly observed by surveyors and confirmed by staff interviews.
