Summary
During an observation with the Dietary Supervisor, one of two trash dumpster lids was found open and filled with trash. The Dietary Supervisor confirmed that all dumpsters were supposed to remain closed and acknowledged that leaving the lid open could lead to pest and vermin infestation. A review of the facility's waste control and disposal policy indicated that trash bins should be covered at all times.
