  • The Cedars Care Centre, Barnet
Welcome to Cedars Care Centre in Barnet. This large, detached, traditional home offers 24-hour specialist care to those over the age of 18. The home is fortunate to have a long-serving team of nursing and support staff that provide high-quality, person-centred care within a homely environment. While specialising in Dementia care, they offer long-term, palliative, respite and post-operative care.

The well-maintained home comprises 35 single bedrooms and 5 companion rooms for couples wishing to share, all with en-suite facilities. They encourage residents to furnish their new surroundings with familiar pieces of furniture and personal possessions to make them feel truly at home. They welcome and cater for live in small dogs and cats as well as welcoming visiting pets.
While bedrooms provide a tranquil area to rest and relax, the bright and attractive communal day rooms offer residents the opportunity to catch up with friends over a pot of tea, enjoy one of the guest entertainers or simply recline in front of their favourite films. The day rooms look out over beautifully landscaped gardens and French doors open onto the terrace allowing safe, ease of access.

At Cedars, the team encourage residents to take part in a range of engaging activities based on their lifestyle needs and preferences. Many of the activities take place within the home environment and include garden tea parties, barbecues and arts/crafts. Within the garden, there is a raised vegetable patch offering the opportunity to ‘grow your own’. They empower individuals to enjoy those everyday routines they cherish, whether that’s having a manicure, visiting the cinema or keeping up to date with their favourite football team. All are encouraged and available. Residents enjoy the wider community, with a thriving high street, independent shops and local park all within a short distance.

Lovely, caring and well trained staff.
Super clean and well decorated building.
Great entertainment and activities for residence.
Including outside entertainers, performing live.

Due to my father's health at 92 years of age, living at home was not an option. Cedars Care Centre, after reviewing, was our first choice. Dad has been very happy since arriving, and this has made life so much easier for his family. And would have no problem recommending this care home to anyone.

Always a positive experience visiting my mother. Despite her being frail, all the staff encourage her to be active, which really helps her physical and mental heath. Lots of activities that families can attend, and the staff genuinely care. Thanks to one member of staff, my mother's wrestling knowledge
has also improved!

We are very pleased with the care Mum is receiving at Cedars. The staff are very caring. Mum is kept motivated; there is always something going on. The home has recently been redecorated, and the garden is beautiful. Mum is well looked after, physically and mentally, which puts our minds at rest.

My husband admitted to Cedar Care Nursing Home mid of June to now. I cannot fault the care and support given to him by both staff and management. The activities lead manager and staff provide an excellent service engage my husband in participating in all activities. The care home provided a safe environment.
The nurses engage with residents and provide extra support.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother has been in The Cedars for a few months and at first she was a little unsettled but the staff have done their upmost to help her settle. Everyone is caring and they get to know the resident to understand their needs. There is always a lovely atmosphere, with residents and visitors and we feel
like a little community/family. Nurses are always on hand if you have any concerns and go above and beyond to look after the resident if they are ill.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My late husband received wonderful care from the minute he entered Cedars Care Centre to his final days. The care and attention was just incredible. Nothing was too much trouble. From the Management staff, Nursing Staff, Carers,
Housekeeping Staff, Office staff and Kitchen Staff the kindness and
care shown was outstanding.
I always felt very welcome whenever I visited and the staff were always concerned as to how I was. I got to know them all very well and they always had a smile.

We feel fortunate to have chosen Cedars as home for our mother. We have peace of mind that she is well cared for in a lovely environment with caring staff who appreciate her needs. We look forward to visiting, without the need for appointments, in the knowledge we will find mum enjoying her surroundings,
her room, the garden, the dining room or the lounge with staff practicing client-centred care.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.884)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.884) out of 10 for The Cedars Care Centre 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 63 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 62 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 4.884 for The Cedars Care Centre is calculated as follows: ( (686 Excellents x 5) + (48 Goods x 4) + (15 Satisfactorys x 3) + (3 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 752 Ratings = 4.884
  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 The Cedars Care Centre is based on 62 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 62 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.
