Summary
During a tour of the D-Unit dining area, surveyors observed several deficiencies related to housekeeping and maintenance. The metal molding at the base of the kitchenette counter was found to be soiled with dried liquids. In the dining room, four floor tiles located at the outside wall across from the dishwasher room were cracked, resulting in an uncleanable surface. Additionally, two ceiling air vents—one over the middle dining tables and another next to the cooking area—were heavily soiled with dust. At the nurse's station, the protective plastic panel facing the dining room was cracked, missing pieces, and had sharp edges. These findings were confirmed by the Maintenance Assistant during the tour.
