Summary

The facility failed to provide food at an appetizing and policy-compliant temperature on one of two nursing units (North Unit). Facility policy titled “Food Prep,” dated December 18, 2025, required that hot foods be served at temperatures greater than 135°F and cold foods at temperatures no greater than 41°F. During interviews conducted on January 10, 2026, between 11:40 a.m. and 12:00 p.m., three residents (Residents 1, 2, and 3) reported that their food was often served cold. A test tray audit performed on January 10, 2026, at 12:33 p.m., after the last resident meal tray had been served from the dining cart on the North Unit, showed that the crunchy buttermilk chicken was at 126.5°F and the green beans were at 132°F, and both items were cool to taste. During this observation, the Dietary Manager confirmed that hot food should have reached at least 135°F at the time of service, indicating that the food served did not meet the facility’s temperature standards, in violation of 28 Pa. Code 201.14(a) and 201.18(b)(3).
