5963	PRINCETON CENTER	515028	1924 GLEN WOOD PARK ROAD	PRINCETON	WV	24740	2014-08-05	364	E	0	1	GK2611	Based on resident interview, review of grievance concern forms, observation, and food temperature measurements, the facility failed to ensure food was palatable, attractive, and served at temperatures which were acceptable to the residents. Hot foods were not served according to current professional standards and customary practice, which requires hot foods to be no less than 120 degrees Fahrenheit (F) at the time of receipt by the resident. This practice had the potential to affect more than a limited number of residents. Facility census: 64. Findings include: a) Resident interviews During Stage 1 of the Quality Indicator Survey (QIS), nine (9) of fifteen (15) interviewable residents complained of food temperatures and/or food taste. 1) Resident #68 said the food was not always served at proper temperatures, hot foods were not hot and cold foods were not always cold. 2) Resident #19 said the food was cold 3) Resident #91 said the food was barely warm 4) Resident #12 said only once in a while do they get a good meal 5) Resident #31 said the casseroles were horrible 6) Resident #96 said the food was not palatable 7) Resident #5 said cold foods were too warm 8) Resident #3 said the food did not look good 9) Resident #9 said she orders out from town because the food tastes bad. b) Resident complaints Review of grievance / concern forms found eight (8) documented concerns regarding the food since 03/13/14. Complaints included concerns about the menus, uncooked meats, the appearance of the meals, undercooked vegetables, portion sizes, and timely meal delivery. c) Food temperatures on Goodall Hall Observation of the noon meal delivery, on 07/30/14, found the meal cart arrived at 11:55 a.m. At 12:30 p.m., the registered dietitian and the dietary manager were asked to take the temperatures of the foods (with their thermometer) on the last tray on the food cart. The temperatures were: fried zucchini - 110 degrees F baked beans - 115 degrees F beef brisket - 112 degrees F d) Atrium Food Temperature Measurements At 12:16 p.m. on 07/30/14, a test tray containing a regular diet and a test tray containing a pureed diet were placed on the last meal cart to leave the kitchen for service. The meal cart contained resident meal trays for residents who had their noon meal in the Atrium of the facility. The cart containing the test trays left the kitchen at 12:17 p.m. on 07/30/14. The last resident tray on the meal cart was served at 12:35 p.m., at which time the temperatures of the foods on the test trays were taken. The temperatures were taken by the Vice President (VP) of dining services, using a facility thermometer. The following temperatures were obtained and confirmed with the VP of dining services: Pureed Foods -- Fried Zucchini - 98 degrees F -- Baked Beans - 108 degrees F Regular Consistency Foods -- Baked Beans - 106 degrees F -- Fried Zucchini - 115 degrees F -- Beef Brisket - 110 degrees F	2018-05-01
