Citation history
Health deficiencies cited at The Meadows during CMS and state inspections, most recent first.
Unlabeled food and unsanitary kitchen conditions were observed in the kitchen and storage areas. Multiple items in the walk-in refrigerator and freezer had no labels or discard dates, including cooked potatoes, salad, rice, stuffed peppers, and zucchini sticks. The dish machine, prep table, storage containers, oven, reach-in refrigerator, and freezer fans were observed with debris, grime, and dust, and the DM and RD were unsure of the cleaning schedule. The three-compartment sink sanitizer repeatedly failed to test correctly, with test strips showing no reading or inconsistent ppm results, and the walk-in freezer had ice build-up and icicles with water leaking onto sealed food.
Kitchen Stove Not Maintained in Safe Operating Condition: The facility failed to keep a six-burner stove in safe operating condition when the rear middle burner would not light and no pilot light was lit. A Lead stated she typically used a lighter if the pilot light was out, while the DM said he was unaware of the issue and expected kitchen staff to report malfunctioning equipment through the maintenance system. The ADM stated he expected proper supervision to identify and address malfunctioning kitchen equipment immediately.

Summary
The facility failed to label food according to policy and failed to keep food preparation and storage equipment in sanitary condition. Facility policy required refrigerated and frozen foods to be stored properly, clearly labeled with contents and use-by date or date opened, and equipment to be cleaned and sanitized after every use according to manufacturer directions. The policy also required equipment to be maintained in good repair and identified ice build-up and refrigeration problems as items needing immediate attention. During observations in the walk-in refrigerator and freezer, multiple food items were found without labels or discard dates. Cooked whole potatoes were covered in plastic wrap with no label or discard date, an uncovered container of salad was present, and in the freezer a bag of cooked rice, a tray of stuffed peppers, and a bag of zucchini sticks had no labels or discard dates. On a later observation, nine plates of salad were still stored in the walk-in refrigerator with no label or discard date. The DM stated staff knew to label and cover items before leaving them in the refrigerator or freezer, and the RD stated food stored in the refrigerator and freezer should have a date on them. The kitchen equipment was also observed to be dirty and not maintained in sanitary condition. The top of the high temperature dish machine had white dusty debris, the food preparation table had debris in an open area, storage containers for cornmeal, sugar, and flour were sticky and covered in grime, the convection oven and dual entry reach-in refrigerator were sticky and covered in grime, and the walk-in refrigerator fans were covered in a white dusty substance. These conditions remained on repeat observation two days later, and the DM stated he was unsure where the cleaning schedule was. The RD stated she was unsure of the cleaning schedule, and the DM later stated he did not have a deep cleaning schedule. The three-compartment sink sanitizer also failed to test correctly during multiple observations. Test strips produced no reading when the DM and LC #4 tested the sanitizer solution, and the LC stated she had filled the sanitizer sink twice without getting a reading. The RD stated she needed to reach out to the vendor if the sink was not working and was not sure how items would be sanitized if it was not working. Later, a test strip bottle was found with an expiration date of August 2022, and the RD stated newer strips also did not read the chemical. Eventually, a test strip placed directly from the dispensing hose into the sink produced an appropriate reading, but a test strip used in the sink mixture again produced no reading, and later a reading of up to 170 ppm was obtained before the sink was filled again and tested within range. The walk-in freezer also had ice build-up and icicles under the right fan, with water leaking from the fan onto sealed food, and the same ice build-up was still present on repeat observation.
Kitchen Stove Not Maintained in Safe Operating Condition
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to maintain 1 of 1 six-burner stove in safe operating condition. Facility policy stated that equipment shall be maintained in good repair and condition and that the FNS Manager/Dietician would schedule routine preventive maintenance with the Maintenance Department. During observation of the kitchen stove, the rear middle burner did not light when the knob was turned on, and there was no pilot light lit. During interview, a Lead stated that if the pilot light was out, she typically used a lighter to light the burner. The Dietary Manager stated he was not aware the pilot light was out, said issues were supposed to be entered into the electronic maintenance system for maintenance staff to review, and stated a vendor came quarterly to check kitchen equipment, including the stove. The Dietary Manager stated he expected kitchen equipment to be working correctly and that kitchen staff should notify him if something was not working. The Administrator stated there was a regular process for kitchen maintenance, deferred to the Dietary Manager for that process, and expected proper supervision in the kitchen to identify malfunctioning equipment and get it fixed immediately.
