My father has been at Cedar Lodge for 8 weeks and when he arrived he was in very bad shape. All the staff, nurses, carers, admin staff and utility staff have been quite simply exceptional in looking after him. The nurses are knowledgeable, kind, gentle and professional and have healed Dad in a very
short time. He is treated with kindness, patience and good humour by Carers and Nurses, I visit regularly and every time I go he is clean, content and well cared for and the things he needs are to hand. The staff take time to talk to Dad and to talk to me about his progress and there is a welcome every time I go. The food is very good. There isn’t one single thing that I would change about Cedar View. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone who needed a place for their loved one. I feel I can trust them to take care of Dad and I don’t have to worry any more.

The home is set on a very pleasant site, which is quiet, considering how close it is to the local roads. The decor of the newly decorated interior is pleasing to the eye. The services that are provided, such as the hairdressing, is excellent and seems to be greatly appreciated by all of the residents.
All in all a very comfortable and well-run home.

My wife has been a resident at Cedar Lodge for three and a half years to date and I have witnessed many changes, all beneficial throughout. During all the months of upheaval, the Manager and staff coped with extremely well. One thing I must say is that Cedar Lodge is more than a Nursing Home it becomes
a home for the residents achieved by the hard work of the staff.

The home is always a pleasure to visit and it's immediately obvious that the staff are well motivated and enjoy the working atmosphere. This, in my opinion, reflects the excellent management team who have always been on hand when dealing with the inevitable issues which arise when dealing with elderly
residents.

My mother is a long term resident at Cedar Lodge (over 2 years) and we are very happy with the care she receives there. Her needs have changed over the past year and the Home has responded extremely well with frequent assessments and communication with us. There have been recent building works which
have provided really excellent extra facilities and a total refurbishment of all the private and public areas. Throughout this mum has been looked after and reassured and loves her ‘new’ room and we have been kept in the loop. Cannot praise the staff highly enough. They are extremely warm, caring and very professional. We have no concerns regarding her health or welfare. The menu seems very popular and the residents seem very happy with their meals. In fact, having spoken with a number of other visitors, we look forward to visiting at Cedar Lodge as there is always something interesting going on and a very happy atmosphere.

The factors which can be measured such as the number of staff, cleanliness, facilities are relatively easy to quantify.
What is less easy to quantify is the soft factors such as the ethos of the team, the authenticity of the individual staff member to the needs and care of the resident. The unconditional
care that the staff members show to all the residents is both personal to the resident and genuine - much more than simply polite and caring.
This is what makes Cedar Lodge unique and makes the REAL difference.
Thank you!

The upgrade to the home is pretty much completed and the new activities room is brilliant. As always the staff and management of the home continue to be excellent. We cannot fault the care my mother has been given, the staff are always friendly, welcoming and caring. There are organised activities on
most days so cannot complain about being bored. The home is spick and span even more so now it has been redecorated. Food is good and with so many different tastes it must be difficult to put on a menu that suits everyone. Overall a very good home. My wife works in the care industry and she can vouch for the excellence of Cedar Lodge.

Overall Experience  Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5

I cannot recommend Cedar Lodge highly enough. My mother was resident there for three months and unfortunately died recently. We had all the support possible from the staff. They were sensitive to our needs and unobtrusive. I was with mum when she died and was very grateful that she was treated with
so much dignity and respect at all times, especially at the end. Mum passed away in the best way possible, surrounded by loved ones and carers.


Although mum didn't eat a lot during her time there, she always had lovely food available and at any time she wanted it. The management were supportive and unobtrusive. The nursing and care staff treated mum with dignity and were always available to help her when she needed it. Mum was fiercely independent, so there help was sensitively offered to preserve her independence whenever possible.
Thank you to everyone at Cedar Lodge for making Mum's last days, the best that they could have been.

My mother was only resident at the home for four weeks, but in that time, the staff were very caring, kind, attentive and gentle.
Her care was exceptional and I could not have asked for a better home from home.

My mother was only resident for a short time before her death. Every aspect of the care provided to my mother was excellent.


Although very frail she was made comfortable and all the staff treated her with respect - I would even say with as much care as they would give their own relative.


They

also provided support for visiting family.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.756)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.756) out of 10 for Cedar Lodge is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 29 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 28 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:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.756 for Cedar Lodge is calculated as follows: ( (289 Excellents x 5) + (43 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) + (8 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 344 Ratings = 4.756

  • b) 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 Lodge is based on 28 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 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

    • ii) 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 60 registered maximum number of service users is 12, which has been reached with 28 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
