  • 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.

Since our dad came in July, he has received excellent care. Everybody who comes into contact with him shows nothing but care and love. We are kept up to date with everything going on and there is a wonderful family feel. We greatly appreciate everything The Cedars have done and continue to do for our
dad.

We have been delighted with the care mother has received. The staff are friendly, attentive and very kind. The administration staff are efficient and professional. The home itself is well-run and always clean, tidy and welcoming. I cannot speak highly enough of the entertainment manager who is a wonderful
credit to the care centre. Thank you to all.

We are very happy with the quality of care, the nursing staff and the activities arranged. Our main concern was the quality of the care and we looked at a lot of places before deciding on The Cedars. We have never regretted our decision. It's a pleasure to come and find members of staff chatting, interacting
and always treating my mother-in-law with respect.

The Cedars Care Centre have been so welcoming, not just the warmth and love they show my mum in incredibly difficult circumstances, but the respect and kindness they show to the many relatives that visit their loved one. It's got a real family feel, the staff work so hard, not just the quality food
and drink on offer but the many different activities that keep the residents happy and contented.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mum has been here six months and settled in very well. She has a very nice room. She enjoys the food. She enjoys the quiz that the activities coordinator does with them every day, as well as any other activities. The activities coordinator goes above and beyond with doing things for the residents.
All the carers and nurses are very friendly and keep me informed of Mum's progress.

Very impressive whenever I visit my friend. The staff are always welcoming and friendly. Watching the carers at work is a wonderful experience. They relate to residents with sensitivity and great care. Always attentive. The home has excellent management which filters down to all staff, setting such
a high standard of care. The activities which I've observed have been entertaining and stimulating, culturally sensitive and appropriate for those residents who can participate.

After Mum had to spend a few weeks in hospital recently she was so looking forward to getting back to The Cedars - it kept her determined to return. All the staff have welcomed her back and have been helping her get her strength back. Fantastic!

The event organiser put on a charity fundraiser for Parkinson's' disease. My Mum who suffers from Parkinson's disease and who gets (in our opinion) the best care at Cedards - it was an absolute honour that the event coordinator who organised the event along with the carers and nurses made it a very
special occasion for all. They went above and beyond.

My auntie has been at The Cedars for a month now.
She has been thoroughly enjoying the activities and friendliness of the staff. She wasn't herself when she went there but has turned back into herself with the care she's been given. Thank you to all the staff.

Arriving wet and tired after a difficult journey by public transport I so appreciated the care I received from the lady in reception. Due to her 'good offices' and after rest and recuperation I enjoyed seeing my friend who also seems to be thriving under the care delivered by Cedars. Thank you all!

Wonderful staff, such a comfort during Mum's last few days.
The nurses were so supportive, they always gave us clear and useful advice and the care staff really lived up to their job title and were very patient with us (no matter what time of day we turned up!).

My father came to The Cedards Care Centre for respite care in December 2023 and became a resident from January 2024. During his time there he was well looked after during the last weeks of his life. All the staff are caring and friendly with smiley faces. We could not have asked for better care. The
staff also took care of Mum who visited Dad every day. Thank you to everyone!

From the moment I phoned the Cedars to see if they had a room, I immediately knew that they cared. Not only about my mother but also about me and managing my feelings at the difficult time. Mum spent four weeks in hospital before arriving which was terrible, within a week she looked a million times
better and happier. The staff are amazing and I feel so relieved they were able to take Mum, there is nowhere I would rather she was.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.886)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.886) 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 64 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 63 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 4.886 for The Cedars Care Centre is calculated as follows: ( (698 Excellents x 5) + (48 Goods x 4) + (15 Satisfactorys x 3) + (3 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 764 Ratings = 4.886
  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 63 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 63 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.
