I am extremely happy with the care my mum is getting. The staff are very helpful and caring towards my mum and she is happy which is the main thing. I go to see her every week and it's a pleasure. It's just like home from home for her. I can't fault them at all.

My father-in-law has been well looked after, the care home has always communicated well with my wife in all aspects of her father's care. They provide a family-orientated, homely environment and when I have visited the home I found it involves the residents in activities within the home and outside
visits.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Having recently moved my lovely sister to Cedar Court Dementia Care Home we cannot believe how welcoming, helpful and kind the staff are to my sister and ourselves.
After a bad experience prior to this placement, we are so pleased with how all staff have welcomed us into their home, their commitment
and care is exactly what we would expect for our loved ones who can be so vulnerable, I leave her now feeling super confident in her care.
My sister seems happier and calmer than she has been for some time, we are pretty sure this is down to the love, attention and understanding of her condition.
Well done Cedar Court.

Review from Trevor D (Son of Resident) published on 15 August 2022 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My late mother was a resident at Cedar Court from June 2021 until she passed away in her room mid-March 2022 following a short illness. The care and support she received right up until she passed away exceeded my expectations. The Cedar Court team treated Mum with great dignity and loved her so well.
They showed equal care towards us as a family. I learned an awful lot from the care home about all that is good and beautiful in human compassion and empathy, and those lessons will remain with me for the rest of my life. Thank you seems too small an expression to convey my gratitude, but it’s said from the depths of my heart. Thank you too for making Mum’s time with you so special. I had not seen her so happy in many years. You are quite the most extraordinary team of carers I’ve ever had the honour to meet!

Staff are always very friendly when we visit, it is clear that our uncle is dearly cared for, they have an excellent rapport with him and know how to have a joke which appeals to his character. We know he is in a safe environment and they contact us when applicable to keep us informed should there be
a need.
We also receive photos and videos which is lovely due to how far away we are.

I’ve worked in the care sector for thirty years. Since my mother-in-law has been here, the staff can not do enough for her and her family. The management are incredible and make the home a happy and safe family environment. All staff are so professional and caring. My mother-in-law has dementia that
is advanced and they still keep her dignity, respect and give her choices and encourage her to choose everything for herself. Empathy and equality are at its best here.

My mother has been cared for incredibly well. She has always been clean and treated with care and patience despite displaying challenging behaviour at times. The staff have displayed interest in Mum's past life and her likes and dislikes. As Mum's visitor, I have always felt welcome and amongst friends.
There is a lovely team spirit present. In recent weeks, whilst Mum's health has deteriorated, she has received wonderful care and I have had great support too. Having experience of other, similar homes, I am confident Mum is in the right place, receiving the best of care. I would certainly recommend Cedar Court Dementia Care Home to anyone.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
From the first contact with Cedar Court Dementia Care Home, Mum was treated with care and respect, she settled quickly with the kindness and encouragement of the manager and care staff and was soon referring to her rooms as her flat. Mum enjoyed activities and food, Mum liked the quiet lounge and sometimes
the main one. Mum suddenly became very poorly and the staff and manager did a great job looking after Mum during this time, they went above and beyond to comfort and help Mum with compassion and dignity and also helped me through the very difficult time. I can't praise them all enough and even though Mum is no longer with us the manager is still in contact with me and my family as they say although Mum is no longer there it doesn't mean our journey has ended with them. Mum was the happiest we had seen her in a long time at Cedar Court,
I would recommend Cedar Court Dementia Care Home to anyone that needs this care.

Every time I visit my mum the staff are always very welcoming and so polite and caring towards all aspects, the weather, Mum's current condition, the fact that the residents will love my dog that I take for Mum to see her and talk about how much they like Mum because she smiles and always appreciates
what they do for her.
I was worried about going on holiday and they just reassured me all is fine and go and live my life because that’s what Mum would want, always so very caring.

Management has been absolutely fantastic through the process of us selecting Cedar Court Dementia Care Home as our chosen home for my father.
They have been more than supportive and patient with our situation and always have been available any time of the day or night to answer our questions and reassure
us. The welcome we received when my dad moved into care recently with them was exceptional, the staff took time to get to know him and we left him feeling a lot less anxious than anticipated, knowing he was in good hands at Cedar Court. We are very much looking forward to this new chapter of Cedar Court being part of our family.

Our aunt is very difficult to deal with, but the staff do their best. She does not realise she cannot have what she wants (a shower) when she wants one, as not an appropriate time for staff to give her a shower. She can be very pedantic, but staff make plenty of allowances for this behaviour.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.817)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.817) out of 10 for Cedar Court Dementia Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 11 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 11 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 4.817 for Cedar Court Dementia Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (104 Excellents x 5) + (21 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 126 Ratings = 4.817
  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 Cedar Court Dementia Care Home is based on 11 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 11 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.

Job Title: Home Manager Joined: 2024

I started off my career in the care industry as a domiciliary care worker almost 20 years ago before changing to work in residential care. This is where I found my passion for working with people with mental health difficulties and dementia. I have worked my way from care assistant to registered manager. I feel a sense of pride when I have helped someone achieve something, no matter how big or small this may be. The smile on residents faces mean so much. I have faced many challenges throughout my career but have always battled through to achieve the best outcomes for people, both staff and residents. I hope to aspire my staff to aim high and develop their career in the same way that I have. This is more than just a job to me.


We are more than a Nursing Home, we are a family unit. I have an amazing team to support me and together we can make such a difference to people’s lives.
