New Jersey health inspectors found unsafe food preparation conditions at Delaney Hall, a detention facility in the state. The inspection documented unsanitary practices in the kitchen serving detainees held at the site.
Violations included improper food storage, inadequate handwashing facilities and cross-contamination risks, according to the inspection report. Regulators issued citations requiring corrective measures within a specified timeframe.
Delaney Hall houses individuals in immigration custody under contract with federal authorities. Food service at detention centers has drawn scrutiny in other states following similar inspection findings.
Facility operators said they are addressing the violations identified by inspectors. State health officials scheduled a follow-up inspection to verify compliance.
