I find this Home very disturbing not a lot of stuff around don't keep an eye on the residence as my mum is in there. She's had two falls in the last week since being in there carer was swearing at other residents very homophobic care home. this is the worst care Home I've ever been in. And I have worked
in a few care homes and residential homes also Home care and the Nhs Hospital to be quite honest I wouldn't put my worst nightmare into this home if I had my way I'd move my mother out of this place hence the one star. patients wee on the floors staff just walked by don't bother cleaning it up the place smells of wee. My mum has weed herself a number of times and left her in her own urine hence why she keeps getting urine infections UTIs don't seem to bother you kind of have to tell them that she's got a water infection. Staff need to be retrained know how to respect the residence as this is their home and they're working actually for the residence. I find this place very disturbing.

Once again Cedar Falls came to the rescue! Admitting my mother for emergency respite care on 27/09/25. A Saturday morning, how organised and quick, contacting staff, who were on leave and out of office. They also placed her in room that enabled her to be opposite my father. My mother was able to spend
the last week of my father's life with him 24 hours a day. Thank you Ceda Falls, you are all amazing.
Reply from Jenny Bellwood, Marketing Director at Cedar Falls Nursing HomeThank you so much for taking the time to share your experience. We are deeply touched by your kind words.

Your appreciation will be shared with the whole team, especially those who went above and beyond to make the admission happen so quickly. Thank you once again for your heartfelt message and we wish you all the best.

No hesitation to use this care provider as another family member has been here for several months, just

My grandfather moved to Cedar Falls in May from a home outside of the area. From initial enquiry to him moving in we were fully supported as a family. He has been so happy in this home and he has made some friends and he gets on so well with the entire team. Everyone is friendly and they answer any
questions we have as a family and action any health concerns promptly which is such a relief to us knowing he is being well supported and cared for. He loves taking part in activities and he says to us that the food is so nice and he always has second portions if he fancies more. It is nice to walk in to the home and it smells fresh and feels welcoming. All in all as a family we are extremely happy he was accepted and moved to Cedar Falls as his happiness is our priority.

Our team takes great pride in creating a clean, welcoming environment and ensuring every resident feels valued and well cared for, so your feedback truly means a lot.Knowing that your grandfather's happiness brings peace of mind to your whole family is exactly what we strive for every day. Thank you for trusting us with his care.

My friend's brother needed an urgent end of life care place nearby - as he lived away from this area. Our 'tour' of the care home was handled carefully and compassionately. The facility was calm & clean & friendly. A place was available and within a few days my friend's brother was moved to a lovely
quiet room with a proper hospital bed/mattress & given the care he needed & support his sister needed until he died. Many Thanks.
Reply from Alicia Bradon, Sales Manager at Cedar Falls Nursing HomeThank you so much for your kind and thoughtful review.

My Dad has been in Cedar Falls since last June. He arrived in a very poorly state, both physically and mentally. Over time his condition has improved in improbable ways, both physically and mentally. His own determination is no doubt a large part of that, but it's been nurtured by the outstanding care
within the home. Particularly the care staff themselves and the nurses, who show genuine warmth and affection for him, as well as professionalism. I'm very happy with Dad's care at Cedar Falls.
Reply from Jenny Bellwood, Marketing Manager at Cedar Falls Nursing HomeThank you for your kind review of Cedar Falls.

The family had to place my partner's auntie into Cedar Falls just before Christmas it was a difficult decision as she can still be quite independent. My partner's auntie has expressed to us that she loves living at Cedar Falls the care team are so kind and caring, they reassure her when she becomes
tearful and they show interest when she sits on her own. I need to give a big shout-out to the Cedar Falls team for their hard work and the dedication they show towards their residents and for making family members so welcome. Cedar Falls is so far the best home we have seen. Thank you for looking after our auntie at these difficult times.

My father has been well looked after at the home. From the time of his arrival, staff have been friendly, welcoming and communicative with him and us, his family.

My sister-in-law continues to receive good care at Cedar Falls, her late-stage dementia is still in place but the staff continue to attempt to keep her spirits up. Food is very pleasant and nourishing, we take in chocolate bars as her sweet tooth is still very much in evidence, but breakfast lunch and
dinner are nowadays being eaten as her appetite seems to have returned. A sore on her leg is still causing concern but we're informed that the doctor is aware and treatment ongoing.

My brother and I visit our sister-in-law at least once per week, with my sister visiting every three weeks or so when she comes up from Essex. Her room is always clean and tidy and she is comfortable. The staff are very good with her, her door is always open, so when the staff are going about other
business they give her a wave and a hello, which is nice for her. I personally, over the last fifteen months since my sister-in-law arrived, have had no major issues, I have found everyone to be very helpful.

My mother-in-law is a current resident at Cedar Falls. She has been living at the care home for the past 12 months.
We know that my mother-in-law is well looked after and cared for by the staff within the home. All of her medical needs are met and she is kept comfortable and safe, with all staff being
familiar with her needs and wants. The residents within the home are all very happy to be living in the home. We are always greeted with warm smiles and friendly faces.
The staff in the home go above and beyond. They all familiarise themselves with regular visitors and family members. The communication between family members and staff is outstanding. They are quick to communicate any issues that may arise with us as a family. We know many staff by name. They are all friendly and beyond helpful when we need to discuss my mother-in-law’s care.
The residents are kept entertained daily with various activities and games which they are supported to partake in. We cannot rate the home more.

Overall Experience 1.0 out of 5
Difficult to see good care on Top Floor especially when you see residents walking around soaked through from urine, visits involve walking through trails of urine that staff don’t see. Little knowledge of medical concerns, no consistency of care, inability to follow through on simple procedures like
a urine test, or other blood tests. Different answers from different staff, no overall monitoring or direction. Staff disillusioned. Communication poor. Another manager after a sequence of new failed managers, no hairdressing service for months, sad residents, staff who are undervalued, poor laundry service, constantly replenishing missing named items, I could go on and on. Worst of the worst is staffing levels at night resulting in little care, no night-time beverages and a poor attitude. But we are taking our relative out. Put in an official complaint. Never got a reply. Even though we followed official procedures. Rooms are shabby, floors sticky and in need of upgrade throughout.
Reply from Alicia Bradon, Marketing and Communications Manager at Cedar Falls Nursing HomeWe are extremely sad to receive your review. We do not feel that the information is reflective of the care home and wish to respond as such. The home has had recent external audits undertaken, as well as our own comprehensive governance suite of audits and whilst there are always opportunities to learn and develop, the outcomes do not correspond with those relayed in this review. Recent resident and relative survey outcomes have been positive also. The team have regular HR Clinics to support them in their role and the feedback again, has not caused concern. The home has a knowledgeable and experienced home manager newly in post and the senior management team provide consistent support. The Regional Manager for the service was surprised to read your feedback regarding your complaint as he met with you on a regular basis to discuss any concerns you had and carried out any required actions. We take all feedback very seriously and always reflect and improve our service as a result.

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.627 for Cedar Falls Nursing Home is calculated as follows: ( (128 Excellents x 5) + (10 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) + (11 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 150 Ratings = 4.627
  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 4.445 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Cedar Falls Nursing Home is based on 12 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 20 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 3.8
    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 93 registered maximum number of service users is 18.6. 12 Positive Reviews ÷ 18.6 = 0.645
  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.
