Additional Comments

During today's inspection verbally reviewed the following: employee health policy and not working when sick; vomit & diarrhea clean up kit / procedures ; hand washing policy and procedures (always wash hands before putting on gloves to prepare ready-to-eat foods); children with food allergies; cold holding temperatures; manual dishwashing procedures; and ensuring food handlers do not have any watches or bracelets on at at the wrist.

Discussed that all baby bottles/sippy cups should be properly cleaned in the kitchen three-compartment sink. Hand wash sinks are ONLY for hand washing and no other purpose.

The VDH food permit that expires 10/2025 & QR Code poster that a copy of the last inspection is available upon request were both posted in the kitchen. The QR Code was also posted at the entrance/lobby of the facility.

Reminder if / when you need a DSS / DOE courtesy sanitation inspection, please contact the office at least two (2) weeks in advanced. These inspections are done upon request
