21 PERSHING GENERAL HOSPITAL SNF 295000 855 6TH STREET LOVELOCK NV 89419 2018-02-14 803 F 0 1 OUMW11 Based on observation, interview, and document review the facility failed to ensure residents received full entree portions according to the menu for 24 of 24 residents (Resident #19, #123, #13, #10, #15, #20, #22, #6, #21, #3, #2, #14, #1, #8, #124, #7, #17, #18, #12, #9, #4, #11, #16, and #5). Findings Include: On 02/13/18 at 12:18 PM, the cook was observed using one gray scoop, with a number 8 noted on the handle, to serve frank and beans and one gray spoodle, with a number 8 noted on the handle, to serve steamed vegetables on to resident trays for lunch service. The cook scooped a full scoop of franks and beans onto a tray and proceeded to add approximately an ounce more food onto the resident trays using the same gray handled scoop. The cook communicated the serving sizes were found on a blue sheet of paper, in a binder, in the kitchen and the sheet of paper was referred to prior to serving lunch on 02/12/18. No documentation was found in the kitchen documenting serving sizes for each numbered utensil. The cook verbalized the scoop size is about 3/4 cup in size and was adding extra food into the scoop to measure about a cup of food per resident. The cook admitted not knowing how much food was actually being served to each resident. The Dietary Manager verbalized a #8 scoop was approximately a serving size of 1 cup but there was no way to be exact with the measurement of food being served with the scoop. The Dietary Manager filled the gray handled scoop, with a number 8 notated on the handle, with water and poured water into a red drinking cup. The cup was measured at 1/2 cup. Documentation in the kitchen titled, Diet SpreadSheet X-Format, documented each resident will be given 1 cup of frank and beans for lunch service. The Dietary Manager and cook confirmed 22 total residents were served only a 1/2 cup of frank and beans. One cup should have been the serving size for each resident. The Dietary Manager expressed policies would be reviewed to see if there was a serving size definition located in the facility policy. A facility policy titled, Following Menus, documented the facility will ensure appropriate portion sizes and menu items were served while meeting the nutritional needs of facility. 2020-09-01
