Note: Will send time as a public health control for items on special menu line-chicken, beef patties, fish, turkey, sausage patties. Note: Flow of Food Food is portioned onto trays, trays are loaded onto carts (open carts) and put on elevator-sent to floors. Once the food arrives on the floor, the housing unit worker distributes the food to the inmates. Cart stays in the unit, as inmates finish eating, trays are put back onto cart and then the carts come back to kitchen for all items to be washed, rinsed, and sanitized. Where inmates are confined, housing unit worker collects trays. On medical unit, food is brought to inmate in single-service disposable container and disposed of there. Nothing from the medical unit comes back to the kitchen.
