Foods` temperatures were cooling down, when re-checked. No demerits are taken today, but please ensure that fridge`s door does not stay open for too long, which would prevent foods from being maintained at 45F or less.

Please note: Key in door to laundry room. Laundry room is located off of staff lounge and staff lounge was properly locked with key properly stored. No immediate risk to children. Do not store keys in locks. Please note: Monitor rinse temperature of dish machine. Water is near 200 F today. Water temperatures that are too high can result in machine blowing steam instead of hot water. Check manufacturer's specifications for approved temperature range for this machine.

GC: One handwash sink in a gated diaper change area of a disused room observed to reach 122 F for less than 10 seconds immediately upon turning on. At that point, the water temperature fell to 104-106 F, well within approved range. Unable to recreate the violation immediately after, or when re-checked at end of inspection. Monitor this sink closely and have serviced if this repeats itself. This may have been an incidental occurrence due to new plumbing and no use of this sink for an extended time, but should be monitored.
