Allegation: Facility staff does not serve nutritious meals
On 6/27/2023 at 11:30am LPA Shirley reviewed facility files. During file review, LPA found that S4’s file does not contain any information on nutrition training. In reviewing the weekly menu, LPA found meal selections were not meeting the requirement of 1/3 of the servings recommended in the USDA Basic Food Group Plan.
On 6/27/23 from 12:07pm to 12:40pm LPA Shirley interviewed client 1 – client 6 (C1-C6). LPA asked if they enjoyed the food by the facility and all six clients interviewed stated they generally enjoyed the food. LPA asked residents if the facility served nutritious meals. Based on interviews, 5 out of the 6 felt that the meals provided were nutritious. On 6/27/23 from 12:07pm to 12:40pm LPA Shirley interviewed staff 1-staff 3(S1-S3). LPA asked staff if the meals served by the facility were nutritious. Of those interviewed, 2 out of 3 staff felt that the meals could be more nutritious.
Based on information gathered, the department did find sufficient evidence to support allegations " Facility staff does not serve nutritious meals.”
Based on interviews conducted and records reviewed the preponderance of evidence standard has been met, therefore the above allegation is found to be substantiated. California Code of Regulations, Title 22, Division 6 and Chapter 8 are being cited on the attached LIC 9099D.
An exit interview was conducted and a copy of the LIC 9099 and appeal rights forms were provided to Administrator Crystal Barrientos. |
