Today I conducted a routine inspection and discussed with the certified food manager the following: 1. Management should reiterate the 5 major risk factors associated with foodborne illnes with all staff frequently: Employee health policy, Personal hygiene, Contaminated equipment/utensils, Time/Temperature relationships for food and Unapproved food sources. 2. Management should calibrate the food thermometers at least once a week in an ice water bath to 32f to ensure accuracy. The thermometer should be washed, rinsed and sanitized before and after each use. 3. A certified food manager shall be present during ALL HOURS OF OPERATION otherwise facility could be closed. If you have any questions please feel free to contact me at 703-246-2444. Thank you.
- Critical: Handwashing / When to wash hands (corrected on site)
Observation: Food employees failed to wash his or her hands before putting on clean gloves.
Correction: ALL food employees shall wash their hands OFTEN especially after handling trash, using the restroom, handling raw meats, handling soiled equipment and utensils, BEFORE putting on clean gloves, etc. Proper handwashing frequencies will aid in the reduction of foodborne illness. DISCUSSED WITH MANAGER. MANAGER SHALL RETRAIN STAFF ON HOW, WHEN AND WHERE TO WASH THEIR HANDS.
- Critical: Certified Food Manager/Presence Required (corrected on site)
Observation: There is no Certified Food Manager present at the beginning of the inspection.
Correction: It shall be unlawful to operate a food establishment unless it is under the immediate control of a certified food manager. It is highly suggested that you have more than one employee with the food manager's license. ORS Interactive, Inc. (see handout provided) issues the required photo identification card with proof of successful completion of a certified food manager's exam. Failure to have a certified food manager on site during ALL hours of operation including food preparation, food service, and cleaning/sanitizing of equipment/utensils will result in closure of the establishment. DISCUSSED WITH THE MANAGER. A CERTIFIED FOOD MANAGER WITH THE PROPER FOOD HANDLER'S LICENSE SHALL BE PRESENT DURING ALL HOURS OF OPERATION. HAVE MORE EMPLOYEES CERTIFIED AS NEEDED. SEE HAND OUT PROVIDED FOR LOCATION TO TAKE THE FOOD HANDLER'S EXAM.
- Critical: Backflow Prevention, Air Gap / When Required (corrected on site)
Observation: Observed a hose with a spray nozzle attached to the mop sink faucet. The system is under constant pressure because the water is constantly turned on.
Correction: A plumbing system shall be installed to preclude backflow of a solid, liquid, or gas contaminant into the water supply system at each point of use at the food establishment, including on a hose bib if a hose is attached or on a hose bib if a hose is not attached and backflow prevention is required by Law by providing an air gap as specified under 5-202.13. The spray hose at the 3-vat sink shall be altered to hang above the flood level rim of the 3-vat sink in order to provide an air gap. DISCUSSED WITH MANAGER. THE MANAGER SHALL TRAIN STAFF TO TURN OFF THE WATER, HANG THE HOSE AND REMOVE THE SPRAY NOZZLE AFTER USE.
- Handwashing Sink / Used for Hand Wash Only (corrected on site)
Observation: Observed the handsink in the kitchen used for the storage of coffee filter holders.
Correction: Handsinks are to be used only for washing hands to encourage proper hand washing and to prevent contamination of cleaned hands. DISCUSSED WITH MANAGER. THE HAND SINKS ARE FOR HAND WASHING PURPOSES ONLY. DO NOT USE THE BASIN OF THE SINK FOR STORAGE OF ANY EQUIPMENT, UTENSILS, ETC.
