I feel very satisfied with the care I receive for my needs. Everyone is friendly and attentive to my requests. The meals are lovely. I am always warm. I feel the staff have got to know me - the things I like and don't like! All round very satisfied.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My aunt has been a resident at Cedar House for just over a year. She has settled well, leaving her own home and independence was very difficult but the safety and comfort she feels here made the transition very much easier than we had thought it would be. There is plenty of activity and friendliness
at all time. I feel my aunt is content and well cared for.

The care home is excellent in its layout and has all the amenities some could need in the later part of life. The staff are wonderful, caring and very respectful and have a great attitude to the care system they work. I would recommend this place to anyone in need of the type of care they offer without
hesitation.

Review from Sue M (Daughter of Resident) published on 25 July 2017 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I think Cedar House Care Home is the best in the area. We visited 7 other homes when my mother decided to go into respite care in February 2016 (she then decided to stay permanently) and this home was by far the best. The staff are caring, attentive and treat the residents with respect, taking into
account their individual needs.


Someone is always available if I have any queries or concerns. Nothing is too much trouble for the staff. They provide lots of activities for the residents to take part in and the gardens are kept beautifully for the people to walk around and sit in.

My mum has been living in Cedar House for just over a year.
The staff are caring and do their best to meet her needs at all times.
The home is always clean, well staffed and welcoming.
I would not hesitate to recommend Cedar House to anyone seeking a care home for a relative.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.861)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.861) out of 10 for Cedar House is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 14 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 14 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Care Home is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.861 for Cedar House is calculated as follows: ( (144 Excellents x 5) + (21 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 166 Ratings = 4.861
  2. 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5'). The 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Cedar House is based on 14 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    1. 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4
    2. 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the registered maximum number of service users in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Care Home registered for a maximum of 50 service users has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 45 registered maximum number of service users is 9, which has been reached with 14 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
