Based on observation and interview, the facility failed to store and distribute food and beverages in a safe and sanitary manner to prevent foodborne illness, by failing to maintain a proper cold holding temperature of milk on the tray line to be supplied to residents and food held in a reach-in refrigerator. The facility also failed to maintain one (East Wing Nourishment Room) of three ice machines used for residents in a safe and sanitary manner. The findings include: 1. During an observation of the kitchen on 12/1/2020 at 11:30 AM, the cook was observed taking the temperatures on the tray line. During the tray line observation, the cook was asked to take the temperature of a small container of milk located in a grey plastic container in front of the tray line. The Assistant Food Service Manager took the half-pint carton of milk and used the facility thermometer to test the temperature of the milk. The temperature was 50 degrees Fahrenheit (F). She obtained a second half pint of milk from the plastic container and tested the milk at 45 degrees F. She obtained a third carton of milk and tested it at 47 degrees F. She was asked to check the calibration of the facility's digital thermometer. She put the thermometer in a cup of ice with a small amount of water and pulled the thermometer out when it reached 32.5 degrees. She retested the temperature of the three cartons of milk and they were at 50 degrees F, 45.2 degrees F and 46 degrees F.
