Cedar Lodge Care Home

Mum was diagnosed with vascular dementia and also Alzheimer's disease in November 2015. She, initially, went into Cedar Lodge for respite care as my husband and I were going away for a celebratory 60th birthday holiday of 10 days to the Bahamas. She went from respite care to becoming a permanent resident. Cedar Lodge have very caring and respectful staff. The home is very clean and kept well and mum's days at the home are enjoyable and as pleasant as it is possible for them to be for her.

Social activities are numerous, all-inclusive and well thought out.

Cedar Lodge, Frimley is a very special care home offering a caring and friendly environment for patients who need regular physio treatment to enable them to take part in a broader life than would otherwise be the case.

Cleanliness is good but the home is a little "tired" and in need of the planned makeover. The quality of the food provided to residents is sometimes not as good as it could be and is very dependent on the chef of the day.

I have lived here for 3 years. Everybody is very friendly and kind.

We do lots of activities to keep us busy and my favourite thing is playing dominoes. Xmas time was wonderful with all the lights and decorations. The food was very good.

The residents had lots of entertainment leading up to Christmas, which they enjoyed very much.

She is always clean and tidy and comfortable and gives us no concern to her well-being.

I am very satisfied with my mother's treatment at Cedar Lodge. The staff are very caring and take the trouble to interact with her - everyone knows who she is. The overall atmosphere is excellent, with clean bright rooms, good food etc. and my mother gets good medical and nursing attention.

( batteries wax build up etc.) which limits her communication and when we visit they are often not functioning. I am sad that this hasn't been addressed.

I feel that my mother is in a safe place and am grateful for the care she gets.

My mother was moved from another home in Ash Vale. Although the staff were very friendly, the home was poorly managed. Cedar Lodge also has very friendly and caring staff, but with the difference of being very well managed. I would recommend this home to anyone. It is excellent.

My mother was assessed very quickly and brought into the home with a minimum of fuss and a lot of kind attention both from nurses and carers. I feel happy that she is in a warm, comfortable place and that her needs are attended to in a kind respectful way enabling her to retain her dignity at the end of her life.

Night time staff caring standards could be improved.

Thanks for everything in the last two weeks.

The staff, cleanliness and care are excellent. I have no hesitation in recommending Cedar Lodge Nursing Home.

Well done to everyone there.

I have been visiting the centre twice a week since November 2015 to see my colleague who is resident there with suffering from dementia. I think that the treatment he is receiving there is superb.

Varied drinks supplied.

My mother appears happier more recently with staff.

All staff helpful and welcoming at all times. Mum has been very well looked after. She enjoys having her hair and nails done each week. The medical care is excellent. She doesn't like some of the food but, is eating more since being at Cedar Lodge. She enjoys almost all of the entertainment. She likes all the staff and says they are all very kind, she likes the cheeky ones!

In my personal opinion, Cedar Lodge is a very good home. I feel my mum is safe at Cedar Lodge and well looked after. There has always been an open door policy at Cedar Lodge. The staff and management have always been able to help with any problems we have experienced. They have a communication book in the office and anything we have got the staff to write in it, it has always been done or sorted out. It would be very nice if Cedar Lodge could have access or even own a minibus so residents could go out on more day trips. They are always happier after a good day out! Residents and staff!

We will miss it hugely and its talented staff.

The environment is relaxing and plenty of space and a lovely atmosphere as you walk through the door. I would highly recommend this home.
