Summary

During a kitchen tour, the sanitizing solution in two red sanitizer buckets was tested by the Dietary Supervisor and found to have a chemical concentration level too low to register at the appropriate sanitizing level of 400 ppm on the test strip. This ineffective level of sanitizer was confirmed by the Dietary Supervisor. Further testing at the source where the sanitizing solution leaves the container and mixes with water into the three compartment sink also revealed a chemical concentration below 200 ppm, which is insufficient for proper sanitization. These findings were confirmed by the Dietary Supervisor and reviewed with facility leadership during the exit conference. No information about residents or their medical history was included in the report, and the deficiency pertains specifically to the maintenance and monitoring of essential kitchen equipment and sanitizing solutions.
