My father was exceptionally well cared for by the management and staff during over 3 years at Cedars Care Home. The carers were so kind that he was happy to regard the home as his own home and the staff as his affectionate family.

Dear Michael, many thanks for your kind review. We’re very pleased that you felt that your father was so well cared for in the time that he was here with us at Cedars. He was certainly a very important part of the home and is very much missed by us all. We wish you and your family all the very best for the future.
My mother went into the home in June 2013 and recently died in December 2020. We are confident Mum was in the best place possible. Her room was bright, well decorated and overlooked a well maintained sheltered garden. We were made very welcome by staff and could visit when we wanted. My mother's...

My mum spent her final 18 months at Cedars and they made her life so much more fulfilled than it had been for some years due to her progressive condition. Mum was cared for wonderfully well, with respect for her individual needs and preferences, including how her room was arranged. The exceptional provision of activities, outings, and events gave her such happiness and pleasure. The premises and facilities are lovely, homely, and well looked after. Any difficulties are dealt with efficiently but with kind consideration. The staff are professional but friendly, kind, thoughtful, and truly caring people. We are very grateful to all at Cedars for everything they did for our Mum, and us as a family. Cedars epitomises what true care is.

Hi Marion, many thanks for your kind review. We are so pleased to hear that you feel that your mother was safe and well looked after here at Cedars. We know how much she enjoyed all the activities and outings. Staff remember her as someone who joined in absolutely everything, determined to live life to the full. She loved the chair exercise sessions and singalongs – we couldn’t believe it when she brought her own karaoke machine with her into the home! She especially loved trips to the seaside and the next best thing for her was sitting in our garden with her sun hat on. Your mother was a huge personality who is very much missed by residents and staff.
I was apprehensive leaving my husband at Cedars for the first time last week, but when I collected him after a week's respite he was very relaxed and seemed to have a very good relationship with the carers. I now feel much more confident to do this again - good for my husband and good for me. Thank...

I stayed at Cedars Care Home after an accident. I live at my flat in Romford. I spent 3 weeks in hospital. The staff at Cedars were professional, I can't praise them enough and plan to spend a day volunteering once I've moved to Southend. They should be paid more.

Mum was in Cedars Care Home for three years and loved it. All of the staff are very caring, attentive and professional. The home is kept spotlessly clean and meals are not only nutritional, they match the high standards of top restaurants! Every week there are performers to entertain the residents, and art/craft and cooking activities. Residents are also taken out on trips to local places of interest. Cedars is more like a five-star hotel than a care home.

We have been sending Mum for respite into Cedars Care Home over the past 5 years. From the very first respite, she was treated with respect and dignity. She was accepted and treated like a permanent resident. The staff took time to find out about her life experiences and family relationships. When I took Mum in for respite I could walk out knowing I had left Mum in caring competent hands. Sadly, on her last respite there she had a fall, which led to her becoming unwell and losing her strength and fight to live. Throughout this time the staff were very caring and supportive. They called the family immediately when any changes occurred showing sympathy and empathy. Our mum was 94 years old with mobility problems and dementia. Staff at Cedars Care Home couldn't have done any more for her. Thank you all.

Extremely helpful and friendly staff, nice surroundings, very pleasant decor. My in-laws are very happy here. Excellent reception staff and manager.

Thank you for your comments. The staff work hard to deliver excellent care.
I thought the home was really nice, very clean, lovely rooms and lovely spacious building. My mum was on the whole very happy with the food on order. I thought the entertainments were pretty good and I felt the activity coordinator was trying really hard to provide it with the rest of the team...
I do however feel that it's very expensive for what it is.

The staff were absolutely brilliant and nothing seemed to be any trouble and Mum was put at her ease, especially at times when she was embarrassed.
As a family, we found the care and attention given to our father during his time at Cedars was exemplary. The staff were very hard-working and attentive and seemed genuinely fond of my father. Nothing was too much trouble.

He, in turn, feels safe and is very fond of the staff who care for him. He is now 101 years old and I am sure the care he receives has contributed to his great age.
I find all the staff to be extremely approachable I must mention a certain staff member sho has been extremely helpful with any of my concerns and providing solutions.

My Grandma has lived at The Cedars for several years now. She settled in fairly quickly and, at the beginning when she was unsettled, the staff would phone me to talk to and reassure her. There is a balance of trying to get people involved in activities and leaving them alone. I have been made to...
I ask my Grandma each time I visit whether she is happy and she says that she is. I would love it if she could move to be nearer to me, as I live several hours away but, if this can't be, I do not feel she could be anywhere better.
Thank you for your comments. I'm glad your grandmother has settled well in the home.
As soon as I entered the home, I received a nice friendly welcome. I find mums room nice and clean and tidy, and also the car for her is great.

Even though mum cannot get involved with the activities due to her health conditions, I find that there is always a lot going on for the other resident's. Also, I find the food to be of very good quality. I would have no hesitation in recommending this home to anyone else.
My wife was cared for 18 months at Cedar Care Home. They give her top treatment but her illness took her in the end.
