Health inspections

Federal rules call for a standard inspection at least every 15 months, plus a visit whenever a complaint is filed. Each mark below is one citation, colored by how serious inspectors rated it. How to read a citation.

Under each citation, the quoted text is the inspector's own summary from the federal statement of deficiencies (CMS form 2567), word for word apart from a privacy scrub; CMS removes residents' and staff names before it publishes the text. The full notes are on Medicare.gov.

    Inspectors wroteBased on kitchen food service observations, staff interviews, and facility policy and procedure review, the facility failed to follow proper food safety sanitation standards and food handling practices to prevent injury to residents and the outbreak of foodborne illness, with the potential to affect all residents who consumed foods from the facility, by failing to serve dinnerware and trays in clean and good condition, clean food debris stuck on and around the meat slicer blade, and clean one of two microwaves located in the 300-600 unit nourishment room. Food handling and sanitation are important in health care settings serving nursing home residents. Unsafe food handling practices represent a potential source of pathogen exposure that compromises residents' well-being.
