Violations: Comments:
The purpose of today's visit was to conduct a routine inspection.
**It was recommended to the person in charge that he receive CFM certification. A CFM must be onsite at ALL times of preparation and hours of operation. It is unlawful to operate an establishment unless under the direct supervision of a CFM. The CFM has many responsibilities, one of which is to make sure that food is being prepared and served safely to prevent foodborne illness. The lack of a CFM is grounds for closure.

March 30, 2006 (Routine)


Violations: Comments:
This is a Critical Procedure Inspection where the emphasis is on those risk factors that most directly affect the safe and sanitary preparation and service of food. Other less critical items, if observed, are not mentioned in this report but are brought to the food manager's attention for correction.
During the inspection of this establishment it was noted that management was not aware of the Food Code provision that employees are required to report certain symptoms or diagnosed illnesses to the person in charge (PIC). Also, the PIC/CFM could not convey knowledge of an employee health policy indicating what symptoms are to be reported and when to exclude/restrict an employee from their duties OR did not have access to a written policy stating what actions are necessary following a report that an employee has certain symptoms or diagnosed illnesses. As discussed with the CFM, employees shall be RESTRICTED from working in a food service establishment when they are experiencing symptoms of sore throat, fever, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and jaundice. Until the employee obtains documentation from a medical professional that he/she is no longer experiencing those symptoms may they return to work. If an employee has been diagnosed with and/or been in contact with someone who has been diagnosed with Salmonella, Shigella, E.Coli, and Hepatitis A they are EXCLUDED from working in the food service establishment until laboratory tests have confirmed they are no longer carriers of the disease.
ALL critical and easily correctable non-critical violations shall be corrected immediately. If any questions arise, please contact me at the telephone number provided.
REMINDERS: 1. Employees shall wash their hands frequently at hand sinks using warm water and soap. 2. Employees shall handle food properly using utensils and/or wearing disposable gloves that are changed often. 3. Monitor food, refrigeration and freezer temperatures. Use your calibrated thermometers to ensure food is held at 41F or below and 140F or above. 4. Continue to inspect canned food deliveries and segregate any dented cans from general storage. 5. Maintain pest control services as needed. Keep records of all services provided. 6. Maintain grease trap and hood filter cleanings on a regular basis. Keep records of all cleanings performed. 7. Discuss with your employees illnesses, diseases, and symptoms that would prevent them from coming to work (e.g. vomiting, diarrhea, fever, E.Coli, Salmonella, etc.). 8. Properly date mark food items with the “use by” date if held beyond 24 hours. 9. Contact the Health Department before you make any changes, additions, and/or renovations to the establishment. 10. ALL inspections are available for public viewing on the State of Virginia’s website.
Please remember that proper hand washing is the most important thing that food service employees can do to prevent food contamination. Review when and how to wash hands with all employees and monitor hand washing practices.
