3. 2-201.11 (A), (B), (C), and (E); Priority; Employee Health Policy does not include Salmonella (non-typhoidal). CDI- Provided education and an updated Employee Health acknowledgement form to properly inform food employees. Facility may use as is or adapt their health policy. 0.0
8. 2-301.14; Priority; An employee observed grabbing a single-use cup on the floor, removing their gloves, then grabbing a new set of gloves to don before working with food. No handwashing observed. The hands shall be washed after engaging in any activity that may contaminate the hands, including when removing items off the floor and subsequently handling food. Otherwise, handwashing procedures are within compliance. CDI - EHS spoke with PIC and employee. Employee washed hands. 0.0
10. 5-205.11; Priority Foundation; The only grill line handwashing sink was blocked by raw chicken (currently being prepared), a cutting board and other various items. Handwashing sinks shall be accessible at all times for employee use. Do not use this area for preparing food as it discourages handwashing, and food preparation is not intended to occur in this area (directly in front of the hand sink). CDI - Items removed. 1.0
10. 6-301.11; Priority Foundation; The soap dispenser at the grill line handwashing sink was stocked with soap, but the dispenser was broken. Therefore, no soap was able to be dispensed.

16. 4-601.11 (A); Priority Foundation; Multiple ladles, miniature colored slicers, plates, and the can opener soiled with food residues and debris. Additionally, the slicer stored as clean (on the prep table) is soiled with debris that are hard to remove.

The slicer needs to be replaced as it is no longer easily cleanable. CDI - Items moved to the dish area for more thorough cleaning. 1.5
16. 4-602.11; Priority; An employee observed taking a final cook temperature of chicken breast without first sanitizing the thermometer's stem.

CDI - All items reviewed prepared today and to be used by the end of tonight's shift. Date marking procedures discussed and PIC to work with staff on accuracy of times. 0.0
33. 3-501.15; Priority Foundation; Numerous containers of noodles prepared today filled to the brim, shut tight with lids and stacked directly on top of one another in the walk in cooler. Also, recently cooked chicken cuts and spaghetti noodles stored in prep units to cool. Prep units are designed to keep food cold, not to cool. Use rapid cooling equipment (the walk in cooler/freezer) to cool foods. Once they are are 41 F or less they may be placed in prep units. Ice baths and cooling logs are currently used. In addition to the ice baths and cooling logs, when cooling foods remember to use small portions, metal containers (these transfer heat better than the plastic containers used), and loosely cover. CDI - Cooling methods discussed with PIC. Foods in prep units moved to cool in the walk in cooler/freezer. 0.5
44. 4-903.11(A), (B) and (D); Core; Dishes stacked wet. After cleaning and sanitizing, equipment and utensils shall be arranged in a self-draining position that allows air drying. 0.0

2. Large pasta was in top pans of prep refrigerator and only 59 degrees. The prep top is intended to maintain food cold and not to cool it down. Also there was a pan of small pasta double panned and setting in the steam table and it was only 106 degrees. After cooking the pasta and shocking it with the cold water it must be put into the refrigerator and cooled down quickly and then held cold at 45 degrees or colder. Otherwise it would need to be maintained hot at 135 degrees. I think the best way is to cool it down and then reheat it in the hot water bath. There was a bowl covered with plastic wrap with three roasted red peppers in it. The bowl was on the shelf above the stove top and they were only 106 degrees also.(The red pepers were put into the quick chill.) (The pasta was placed in the refrigerator to cool down properly.)
