Review from Kevin C (Son of Resident) published on 16 January 2017 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
I feel that my father is very well cared for and looked after. His bedroom is warm and always kept clean and tidy. The food always appears to be hot, good quality and adequate quantities. The staff always seem friendly and caring. I don't think my father would be looked after better anywhere else.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The Cedars is a fantastic care home with extremely caring and professional staff. My mother has been and continues to be challenging due to her dementia, however, The Cedars have had the time, tenacity and kindness to make her feel at home, happy and comfortable. Many care homes would not take my mum
because of this not The Cedars. First rate.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother has been a resident at The Cedars Rest Home for over a year, and although she has her problems, physical and mental I have always been grateful to the staff at The Cedars for their kindness, patience and professionalism in the care they provide for my mother. It is a great comfort for me
to know that she is in good hands, I have got to know the staff at The Cedars Rest Home and I am pleased to note that turnover is very low. This is clearly a sign that staff are loyal and appreciated. The standard of care at The Cedars Rest Home is excellent.

My mother has been a resident for four months and we have always found the staff to be caring and attentive. The rooms are always clean. My mother is happy and content and whilst she isn't able to remember names is always happy to see the staff when they help her.

Review from Ian R (Son of Resident) published on 27 July 2016 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
After experiencing the round of a host of mediocre homes The Cedars came as a "breath of fresh air". Apart from it's beautiful location, sloping garden and well kept terrace, (which my mother delighted in at all sessions) the state of the building, the exemplary care of the staff and the competency
of the management were all of an extremely high standard and this is at a price that compared favourably with any of the "competition". My mother was properly looked after both her physical and mental needs fully met and stimulated, and her final eighteen months were enjoyed to the full. The Cedars has set the bar at a level that all care homes should strive to attain. Well done! You have my grateful thanks.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.664)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.664) out of 10 for The Cedars Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 7 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.7 out of 5 from 7 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 4.964 for The Cedars Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (81 Excellents x 5) + (3 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 84 Ratings = 4.964
  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 4.7 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for The Cedars Care Home is based on 7 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 = 3.7
    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 34 registered maximum number of service users is 6.8, which has been reached with 7 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.
