Hi Jill,
Not sure which state you are in but I would say this would be governed by the Food Safety Act in your state as well. Certainly anything that washes crockery used by patients or residents need to meet thermal disinfection.

Re implementation of domestic dishwashers in aged care facility
A local facility has implemented a domestic dishwasher primarily for tea/coffee cups and small plates however, a highly
regarded consultant has confirmed that a domestic dishwasher is not appropriate for a residential care facility.
due to the dishwasher being unable to obtain temperatures greater than 82 degrees (which is the required temperature)
for a prolonged periods. In order to thermal disinfect. Hence, a domestic dishwasher is unable to thermal disinfect the
dishes and cutlery.
Any thoughts or further information would be appreciated
thank youJill
