Food is also great and my dad is pleased that all the old-school puddings are available! I would highly recommend Cedars to anyone who is looking for a premium facility for their loved ones.
Dear Neil, thank you for your kind feedback, and for working with our team to ensure that your loved one receives the best possible care and support. We’re so happy to have you both as part of our Cedars family. I will pass on your comments to the team, who will be very happy to receive them.
Staff friendly to both residents and their families. Always clean rooms and have private facilities. My father has been treated with dignity at all times. It is comforting to know he is in a safe environment and we are welcome to visit any time with the children and even the dogs.

Thank you for taking the time to review Cedars Care Home. We are incredibly proud of both our home and the care and dedication given to our residents by our team. It’s very good to know that your father is happy with us and enjoying life at our home.

My stepdad came to live at Cedars Care Home in 2022 after becoming too frail to live alone. From day one, the home has been brilliant. I am impressed that his skin/health are assessed routinely, bloods are taken by GP or community nurse as required to check for any possible health issues, i.e. anaemia, I always receive a phone call updating me from Cedars. The food is excellent and choices. The building inside/out is clean and today, so is Stepdad's room. There are no odours within the building. The manager is a very effective leader and the staff work to the best of their ability. Staff are friendly and nothing is too much trouble, they are an asset to the home.
Many thanks for your kind review. We are so pleased that you feel our home is warm, friendly and welcoming, as well as clean and tidy. Staff work hard to provide a comfortable caring environment for your loved one, giving them all the care and attention that they so deserve!
My mother was a resident at Cedars Care Home for two years, during which time she grew to be part of a large family - myself also! I shall miss my visits to the home as I was always made to feel so welcome and encouraged to join in with events. The manager is very friendly and approachable, dealing...
When my mother died in December last year, the manager plus two members of staff took the time to attend her funeral and brought with them a memory box which contained her last letter to my family and photos of her time at the home. My family were overwhelmed by the thoughtfulness of this gesture - it is a memory we can cherish.
Dear Lisa, thank you so much for your heartfelt feedback and comments which mean such a lot to the team. We are very grateful that you chose our home for your relative’s care. She was such a lovely person and it was our pleasure to welcome her to our family and look after her. As you can imagine, we miss her very much. Please accept, once again, our condolences on your loss.
There is always a warm welcome upon arrival for each visit. Management are approachable on any issues. The carers are very friendly and positive. My mother is treated with respect and appears to be in excellent hands. I certainly would recommend this establishment.

My mum entered Cedars Care Home in July 2021 and was not managing to care for herself at home any longer. Mum has improved a lot and gets all the help she needs while being encouraged to do things for herself wherever possible. Although Mum is not too keen on some of the activities she is always asked if she wants to join in, she likes to sit in the garden, weather permitting. I have found the level of care to be excellent.

We feel very fortunate that we managed to get a room at Cedars Care Home for my mother-in-law in January 2022. From the moment we visited we felt the warmth and care from every staff member we came across. Each time we encountered another staff member going about their duties, either cleaning,...
Thank you.
Dear Helen, we very much appreciate that you took the time and trouble to give us such a kind review. We are delighted to have had your loved one stay with us, and we're very pleased to hear that she enjoyed her time with us, and have gone back home refreshed and rejuvenated. It goes without saying that we would be delighted to have your loved one stay with us again in the future!

With the Covid difficulties experienced by everyone, the opportunities to visit have been limited. Generally, my wife goes to see her mother. However, I am aware the management at Cedars Care Home in Southend have done all they can to maintain a good service of care for their patients/residents. They have also been quick to assist in keeping communications open.

My relative is very happy with the care she receives and says that she is 'well looked after'. I am also pleased with the standard of her care. Over the last two years with the varying Covid restrictions, the staff at Cedars Care Home have always done their best to keep me informed and were able to accommodate visits when allowed. It was especially appreciated that I could visit over the Christmas period last year.
Thank you very much for your review. The team and I are delighted that you're happy with your loved one’s care. Your relative is such a pleasure to look after and is very much loved here at Cedars Care Home.

I would recommend Cedars Care Home to anyone looking for either a residency or respite care for their family member or friend. The staff are caring, and it has been our families experience that all staff are very approachable and friendly and that the care of the resident is very important. During Covid, it has been extremely testing for residents, care workers and all staff at the home. I would like to thank them for keeping us up-to-date with key changes and for keeping all as safe as possible. The cleanliness is very good, and they have continued to try and stimulate the residents with various activities, even though at times, I'm sure this must have been difficult. Thank you all.

The care our mum receives is amazing, and everyone is so kind and caring. The home is bright and extremely clean, and we feel very happy that our mum is under their care. They have an entertainments programme for the residents, take them out for trips if they are able and generally have the residents well-being as a first priority. Cedars, you are truly amazing; thank you for everything you do!

Really pleased with the care my mum has received at Cedars Care Home. Would strongly recommend to others. All staff are very helpful, caring, approachable and go beyond their role to meet the needs of residents and family. Thank you.

Lack of attention to personal care and unwillingness to understand the full range of issues of my relative is a significant issue. Whilst my relative is settled in her surroundings, as a family we continue to be unhappy with overall standards of care.

Dear Karen, Thank you for your recent review for Cedars Care Home. We are concerned to hear that you are unhappy with the standards of care here at Cedars for your relative. We are already working hard with the team to ensure that we meet the needs of your loved one, and are more than happy to discuss any issues with you.

Mum had been a resident for over 7 years. In that time her needs changed and her care was always appropriate. She went from being able to walk with a zimmer frame and then a wheelchair and finally bed-bound. At all times she was encouraged to be as independent as she could be. She loved all the activities from arts and crafts to exercise groups and especially the excellent entertainment. When she was bed-bound the staff continued to sing with her and I have lovely FaceTime videos of her singing in her final days. To me, one of the most impressive things is the staff really get to know the residents and it's the little things that count - what they enjoyed and what they didn't like to do, always smiling and laughing with her or reassuring if Mum was distressed. The management team are supportive to the staff, residents and relatives and any issue no matter how big or small can be discussed. It was indeed my mum's home and I felt like part of the family too.

Dear Lynda,Many thanks for your kind review. It was a real privilege to have been able to look after your mother for so long. We are delighted that you feel she was in good hands, and that you considered yourself to be part of our family, just as she was. She was certainly a lively character, joining in the activities and entertainment with real energy and enthusiasm. We remember many things about her – her determination to remain independent, her huge smile and how she loved to sing! During the seven years that she was with us, we got to know her well. We all loved her and she is very much missed here at the home. We would like to wish you and your family all the best for the future.
