Modernizing Food Safety &Compliance at Scale

Overview

Senior Living Dining & Compliance Environment

Morningstar Senior Living operates over 40 communities nationwide, serving tailored nutritional experiences daily. With rising regulatory demands, diverse dietary needs, and a mission to elevate resident wellness, maintaining consistent food safety and compliance was critical — yet traditional paper-based processes were straining staff, slowing reporting, and limiting visibility into key food safety and asset performance metrics.

The challenge

Manual Methods Unable to Scale

Paper-Based Processes

Culinary and dining teams relied on manual logs for food temperature checks, equipment compliance, and sanitation records — leading to time lost on administrative tasks and potential data errors.

Limited Visibility

Leadership lacked real-time insight into food safety checks, equipment deviations (e.g., refrigeration temps) or compliance status across all 41 locations.

Staff Burden

Culinary teams juggled service delivery with compliance documentation, often duplicating work and delaying corrective actions.

 

Why Traditional Methods Failed

  • Inconsistent Documentation — prone to gaps, delays, and loss

  • Audit — readiness difficult to maintain

  • Reactive, not proactive — issues discovered after the fact

  • Scattered accountability — manual tracking error-prone

The Solution

Better Data. Better Action.

Asset Intelligence & Sensors
Continuous monitoring of critical kitchen and storage assets (walk-ins, coolers, hot holding) for automated temperature & environmental tracking.

Mobile App for Food Probing
Culinary staff use the Checkit app to perform digital food temperature checks, capture results instantly, and link data to compliance records.

Cloud Dashboard & Reporting
Centralized view of compliance results, overdue tasks, sensor alerts, and audit reports—accessible to culinary leadership.

Real-Time Alerts
Instant notifications for deviations allow immediate corrective action, preventing food safety risks.

"Checkit’s monitoring system is working 24/7 across our Cambridge site, providing comprehensive data and allowing us to respond in real-time.”
