tough to read.
>> I have to pull them up on my iPad
because I'm trying to read them on my

>> Oh, I tried. That's what I did. I read
them on my computer.
>> Report on um It was on Mr. sushi.
>> No, Mr. Ramen
>> about a freezer that would had mold or
something in it or
>> Oh, yes. One of them.
>> The ice machine.
is all molded.
>> Are they using this thing or
>> Yeah, they they shut it off and they
just everything.
>> So Oh, they got rid of it.
>> Yeah, it's a small ice machine.
>> Oh, don't worry. Cuz I was like, "Okay,
good to know that, you know."
>> But yeah, I'll die.
Is there any ordinances of how often
they have to clean those or change the
filters or anything for ice machines?
>> No. I mean, I do tell them to clean it
as often. It doesn't say anything
specifically, but
>> it's got to be maintained.
>> Maintained.
>> Usually manufacturing guidance, but they
usually don't read that.
>> Okay.
>> That's why.
>> Yeah. [laughter]
>> And the water hardness here.
>> Yeah.
>> Oh, yeah.
>> That's that.
>> Yeah. It's terrible.
>> It is. So then you see like that calcium
build up inside ice
>> machine.
» I'm still trying to get used to that
from I didn't have that problem with the
calcium.
>> We didn't have that.
>> Yeah, we have oil rub bronze fixtures
and it's horrible.
>> Yeah.
>> Just turns white.
>> Yeah,
>> I keep a razor blade in my [laughter]
kitchen cabinet.
She's
got a water.
[laughter]
>> I was just wondering cuz in the hospital
we have to keep it posted on the outside
of the ice machines of when it was
checked and filter change. So I just
didn't know if there was anything
>> that's protocol
[clears throat] way to do it. Not
everybody does it.
>> And one of the tattoo places listed Dr.
remain in Riverdale as something. And I
wondered um Pretty and Pink.
>> Yeah, cuz they're doing the permanent
compromises.
>> Uh
>> so does that mean Dr. Roma knows about
this?
>> Yes.
>> You should be doing it.
>> Yes, they're supposed to have paper
along.
>> Okay.
>> In Riverdale or Pumpton Lakes Pretty?
>> No, it's a Pumpton Lakes thing, but it
listed Dr. Roma in Riverdale.
>> Yeah. as the doctor on file and I just
know some of Allie's policies and I just
>> want
>> Is he a valet doctor?
>> It's a valet doctor.
[clears throat]
>> Did he just get himself in trouble?
>> Oh, [laughter]
>> if he knows.
>> I was going to say if she knows cuz
that's the big thing cuz
>> I was wondering that.
>> Okay. I'll have to find out.
Ma'am
position.
>> Got it.
on call. You mean a physician on call or
>> it's a medical procedure technically. So
they're basically saying you need to
have a physician's
>> uh like a sign overview.
>> Yeah. Overview.
>> To put together their policies to do
>> Katie's probably right. I mean Valley's
a big place. I don't know. You know,
sounds odd they would take that on. A
lot of little family practice. when I
worked for Valley in that same office,
we used to do it and then the Valley um
legal department stopped us and and even
though we had contracts with different
camps and different places in the area,
they did not want to be in that business
[cough] any longer, [clears throat]
so they stopped it.
>> I'll get that paper.
>> No, no, that's I I just, you know,
>> I'm just was like, "Oh, look at this."
>> Yeah. that they're forging or changing
something which sometimes we don't know
anything but
>> they can trouble.
>> It actually has a new manager over there
who may not know.
>> They may not know
>> that they can't just
>> do this.
>> Mhm.
>> What are they doing? The doctors on
staff or what is that?
>> You have to have a doctor oversee any be
in charge of any procedures. It doesn't
mean that they have to be on premises
but and depending upon the procedure
>> for a tattoo par
>> no for cosmetic which is basically a
tattoo but yes
>> I guess it's like
>> but it's like the eyes
>> your eyes your lips that kind of
>> could be reconstructive could be
>> you can get tattooed eyebrows if you
want
>> I was thinking about that [laughter]
okay just was curious
but it seems like most of the
restaurants were all all checked out. I
mean, there was no real
>> what's that?
>> Thankfully, just
>> Yeah, it didn't seem like there was any
like major problems that I was
>> No, I mean, with Mr. Suchi and Mr. Ramen
from last year's report, I guess Gabby
got
>> That's good news.
>> Yeah,
>> that's good [laughter] news.
>> Yeah.
>> Would you eat there?
>> I actually wouldn't eat at most places.
Even [snorts] in Humbok, I think I only
had like six places that I eat at like
300.
>> That's interesting.
I was surprised at the number of places
with broken dishwashers, including
Lincoln School.
>> Yeah,
>> you had like three three different
places, I think, had broken dishwashers
or something. And I was like, "Oh, I
don't know if I would like I'd like to
believe that, you know, like at home, I
even use this sanitizing uh thing
sometimes." Yeah.
>> A lot of them don't check that's the
problem. And it's not necessarily it
doesn't get the temperature or the
disinfectant isn't going in and and
they don't check a lot of unfortunately.
>> Yeah. The company I think it's homework
that they need.
>> Mhm.
>> They were aware of it but they need to
get pieces and then the holidays
but they had it closed.
» And again when you go into these you're
not going into these places on
schedules. Correct. You just go in there
randomly whenever you deem you should go
in there.
>> It has to be once a year or more.
>> We try to get in more.
>> Right.
>> Interesting.
>> By law, it's once a year. But
» we're for twice.
>> Yeah. At least twice. We're trying to
get
>> Okay,
>> that's great.
>> I mean, you know, the the previous
administration of
>> Yeah. you know, used to schedule vac
worked as a health inspector in another
community and scheduled his vacation for
like the first week or second week of
July and everyone knew they were getting
inspected during that week.
>> It was once a year during that week and
that was
>> that was how it was done.
[clears throat] And then we switched
over.
>> It was Yeah. Well, that was Pumpton
Lakes and then we switched over and
things changed which was
>> for the best. It took us a while to to
clean up some of the stuff.
>> The element of surprise is what helps us
during inspections coming and they
prepare and they're great for that week
and
>> Right. And I mean even the vape shops
and stuff like they could put things
away and all. This is great that you
know you just walk in. I think you saw
it in one of them. Um there was a
flavored one or something in one of
them.
>> Unfortunately
