Summary
A hole was observed in the counter top located in the back of the dining room, which allowed garbage, including a used plastic utensil and opened salt and pepper paper packets, to accumulate inside the storage cabinet below. This unsanitary condition was directly observed by the surveyor and subsequently verified by both the facility's Guest Services director and the facility administrator. The deficiency was acknowledged by facility leadership during the survey process. No information regarding specific residents, their medical history, or their condition at the time of the deficiency was provided in the report.
