Summary

Facility staff failed to ensure that outdoor waste refuse containers were properly closed and not overflowing with waste. During an observation from the dining room window on Mount [NAME], a surveyor observed four large waste containers, all with open lids or doors and exposed trash. Waste container #8320 had its top lid open with large bags of rubbish exposed at the top and a clear white bag hanging off the left side. Waste container #8319 had its left sliding door open with a clear waste bag hanging out of the side. Waste container #8213 had its top lid open with brown boxes and waste bags exposed. Waste container #8148 had its lid open with clear waste bags exposed and hanging over the front, and there was waste on the ground on both sides of this container. In an interview, the Maintenance Director stated that the Environmental Services (EVS) Department oversees the dumpsters, which are emptied on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, and that EVS is responsible for keeping the areas around the dumpsters clean. In a separate interview, the EVS Director stated that porters are supposed to know when the dumpsters are full and to close them after placing trash inside, and that while all departments use the dumpsters, the porters are responsible for ensuring the dumpsters are closed.
