Summary
The facility failed to maintain an effective pest control program, resulting in the presence of mature gnats swarming around the drain area under the dishwasher table in the dish room side of the kitchen. This observation was made during a walk-through, and the issue was acknowledged by the district manager, who stated that although the exterminator had been contacted for advice a week prior, the facility had not yet been treated for the gnats. The deficiency was identified as a random opportunity for discovery and had the potential to affect multiple residents, with a facility census of 106. No specific residents or their medical conditions were mentioned in relation to this deficiency.
