1 Why Are Residents of Long-Term Care Homes at Risk for Food borne Illness? There are several factors that may increase the susceptibility of long-term care home residents to foodborne illness such as advanced age, illness, injury and use of antibiotics and antacids. These factors may result in the weakening of their immune system. This leads to an inability to fight off the effects of pathogenic organisms if present in the food they eat. Individuals who use antacids (or other drugs) neutralize the gastric acid in the stomach which inhibits acid secretion which may increase the risk of food or waterborne infections. The secretion of hydrochloric acid by the stomach plays an important role in protecting the body against pathogens ingested with food or water. Foodborne illness that is mild in a healthy individual can be life-threatening to the longterm care home resident. Consequently, food prepared for this population must be prepared in strict accordance with the regulations and guidelines for food premises. Symptoms of Foodborne Illness Common symptoms of foodborne illness are: diarrhea, abdominal cramping, fever, sometimes blood in the stools, headache, vomiting and weakness. However, symptoms will vary according to the type of foodborne illness and the amount of the contaminant consumed. Symptoms of foodborne illness may begin as early as one half-hour after eating the contaminated food or they may not develop for several days or weeks. Symptoms usually last only a day or two, but in some cases can persist. For most healthy people, foodborne illnesses may not be long lasting or life threatening. However, foodborne illness can be severe in high-risk populations including seniors, immuno-compromised individuals and the very young. What to do in case of a suspected foodborne illness: If you suspect a resident has a food borne illness, follow these general guidelines: 1. Seek medical attention for the resident immediately. 2. Institute appropriate infection control measures. This should include contact precautions such as gowns and gloves for contact with resident s feces, dedicated equipment where appropriate, and enhanced hygiene and environmental cleaning. 3. Call Peel Public Health immediately if you suspect food borne illness in your home.
2 food borne outbreak investigations Public Health Inspectors will assist the Outbreak Management Team with an epidemiological investigation of the outbreak. Outbreaks are reported to the Ministry of Health and Long Term Care by Peel Public Health. The Public Health Inspector will coordinate the submission of stool and food samples to the Ontario Agency for Health Protection and Promotion (OAHPP) Toronto Public Health Laboratory. In addition, Public Health Inspectors will advise the home of the results of the samples submitted to the Ontario Agency for Health Protection and Promotion (OAHPP) Toronto Public Health Laboratory. The Public Health Inspector may also conduct a general inspection of the food preparation, storage and service areas of the home. Any ill staff members who are involved in food handling or resident care should be excluded from work while symptomatic. Follow the directive from Peel Health regarding the return to work of ill staff. Peel Health Department Responsibilities Public Health Inspectors are responsible for food safety inspections of food service premises in the Region of Peel. Inspections are conducted under the authority of the Health Protection and Promotion Act. Public Health Inspectors will conduct regular inspections of your home to ensure compliance with Ontario Regulation 562, Food Premises. The Region of Peel has a full disclosure program for all food premises. In addition, Public Health Inspectors conduct Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point (HACCP) food cooking/processing audits in accordance with the Ministry of Health Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point Protocol. Public Health Inspectors investigate foodborne illnesses reported to the Health Department and also inspect other types of public premises and respond to community concerns of a public health nature. Food Handler Education Education of food handlers on an ongoing basis is recommended for all homes. The emphasis on food handler education should be on proper food handling practices and good personal hygiene. Peel Health offers a food safety certification course in accordance with the Ministry of Health Food Handler Training Protocol on an ongoing basis. The course is taught by a Public Health Inspector. Topics include the role of the Public Health Department, legislation, receiving, storing, preparing and serving food safely, introduction to HACCP, food handling hygiene, food allergy, and food premises sanitation, design and maintenance. The food handler certification course can be completed in one day. The course consists of classroom instruction and learning activities followed by an exam. A pass mark of
3 70% must be achieved on the exam in order to obtain the food safety training certificate. A fee is charged for the food handler certification course. A home study course is also available. Groups of 10 or more may be able to organize sessions for their group. For more information call Health Line Peel at Peel Public Heath also offers a refresher in-service.
4 INSPECTIONS The following pertains to the FoodCheck Peel disclosure system. Food Check Peel a. FoodCheck Peel grading system is based on the Ontario Food Premise Regulation b. Frequency of inspections is based on a risk assessment conducted by the PHI High Risk premise: o Inspected 4x per year o HACCP audit conducted 1x per year Medium Risk premise: o Inspected 2x per year Low Risk premise: o Inspected 1x per year c. The risk rating is dependant on the following criteria: food handler certification, historical level of compliance, history of food poisoning, nature of food prepared, population served, volume of food prepared and water source. FoodCheck Peel Grading System Type Definition Inspection Detail & Time PASS Notice Substantial Compliance with Observed non-compliance is minor and can Food Premise Regulation be followed up during the next scheduled CONDITIONAL PASS Notice CLOSURE Notice Significant non compliance with Food Premise Regulation which may affect food safety Conditions in the food premises are an immediate health hazard to the general public. inspection Immediate threats to food safety will be eliminated at the time of the inspection Follow-up inspection will be conducted within 72 hrs Closure order is issued at time of inspection and would remain in effect until a reinspection determines that the health hazard has been abated. Premise is monitored daily by PHI
5 , SANITATION, DESIGN AND MAINTENANCE The following factors are critical to food safety, sanitation, design and maintenance Refrigerated and Frozen Storage of Hazardous Food a. Keep cold foods cold served at 4 C (40 F) or colder b. Freezing: -18 C (0 F) or less. Freezer items are dated and stamped. c. Cooling of cooked foods: 60 C to 20 C (140 F to 68 F) and refrigerated within two hours (excludes large cuts of meat) d. Any food that remains between 4 C (40 F) and 60 C (140 F) for more than 2 hours must be discarded Cooking/Hot Holding/Reheating of Hazardous Foods a. Thermometers are required to verify food preparation and storage temperatures. b. Thorough cooking to minimum internal food temperatures: Whole poultry 82 C (180 F) Poultry/stuffing/ground and stuffed meat 74 C (165 F) Pork Products (other than ground) 71 C (160 F) Ground meat (other than poultry) 71 C (160 F) Other hazardous foods 74 C (165 F) c. Hot holding: minimum of 60 C (140 F) after cooking/rapid re-heating d. Reheating: to original cooking temperature within four hours. Prevention of Food Contamination a. Food handlers must wash their hands thoroughly before and after handling food. b. Proper utensils e.g. tongs, spoons, forks must be used to minimize direct hand contact with cooked or prepared foods. c. Raw foods must be kept separate from ready-to-eat foods during storage and handling. d. Preparation surfaces and utensils used for ready-to-eat foods must be separate from raw food e. Food must be protected from potential contamination (e.g. food covered, labelled, stored at least 15 cm off floor) f. Chemicals/pesticides are to be stored separately from food.
