  • The Cedars Care Centre, Barnet
Welcome to Cedars Care Centre in Barnet. This large, detached, traditional home offers 24-hour specialist care to those over the age of 18. The home is fortunate to have a long-serving team of nursing and support staff that provide high-quality, person-centred care within a homely environment. While specialising in Dementia care, they offer long-term, palliative, respite and post-operative care.

The well-maintained home comprises 35 single bedrooms and 5 companion rooms for couples wishing to share, all with en-suite facilities. They encourage residents to furnish their new surroundings with familiar pieces of furniture and personal possessions to make them feel truly at home. They welcome and cater for live in small dogs and cats as well as welcoming visiting pets.
While bedrooms provide a tranquil area to rest and relax, the bright and attractive communal day rooms offer residents the opportunity to catch up with friends over a pot of tea, enjoy one of the guest entertainers or simply recline in front of their favourite films. The day rooms look out over beautifully landscaped gardens and French doors open onto the terrace allowing safe, ease of access.

At Cedars, the team encourage residents to take part in a range of engaging activities based on their lifestyle needs and preferences. Many of the activities take place within the home environment and include garden tea parties, barbecues and arts/crafts. Within the garden, there is a raised vegetable patch offering the opportunity to ‘grow your own’. They empower individuals to enjoy those everyday routines they cherish, whether that’s having a manicure, visiting the cinema or keeping up to date with their favourite football team. All are encouraged and available. Residents enjoy the wider community, with a thriving high street, independent shops and local park all within a short distance.

Staff are exceptionally caring which was a huge relief after a bad experience elsewhere. Nothing was too much trouble and their interaction with residents was very kind and caring. Upon walking in someone always asked if they could help. My husband was well cared for whilst he was here for respite.
My only gripe is there is no family room to be alone and parking is a bit tight.

There is a very friendly atmosphere with meeting rooms both up and downstairs with television facilities, a couple of residents were allowed to bring their beds with them. There are plenty of staff to look after the residents and also plenty of easy chairs.

My Brother-in-law has been here since December 2014 and the family have been as pleased with the care that is given to all residents. The Managers give excellent lead to all the staff which brings a lovely atmosphere.

I am very impressed with this care home. The carers are very caring and friendly. The manager is excellent and the high standards filter down from her to all the staff. My Father struggles with the food and needs it to be minced up (soft food). He does not find the food very tasty but, of course, this
could be down to his own taste buds!

Overall Experience  Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5

From the time we made contact with the management at The Cedars Care Centre, we felt we were in the hands of professionals with a strong emphasis on compassion and quality of care. We were not disappointed.
Within 24 hours of our initial contact, the care home manager travelled to Cambridgeshire to
undertake an assessment of my sister who was terminally ill in Peterborough Hospital.
After a successful transfer, my sister spent six weeks at The Cedars.
She received excellent care from a team of dedicated staff who were always approachable.
As someone who works in residential care, I was relieved to find such a lovely nursing home for my sister, which I would not hesitate to recommend to friends and colleagues.

My husband was in The Cedars for a year and a half. He was looked after well by caring and friendly staff. The food was of a very high standard and the home was kept very clean. There is a lovely garden which can be used in spring and summer. I would strongly recommend The Cedars to anyone considering
residential care.

The team at Cedars cared for my Grandad from April until he passed away in late July. Cedars had been recommended to us and the Manager's team delivered on everything we had expected & hoped for. My Grandad was treated with the care & dignity that he and we wanted in what was a challenging & sensitive
situation for the whole family as his health deteriorated. Thank you to all @Cedars.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.856)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.856) out of 10 for The Cedars Care Centre is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 56 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 55 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:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.856 for The Cedars Care Centre is calculated as follows: ( (593 Excellents x 5) + (57 Goods x 4) + (15 Satisfactorys x 3) + (3 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 668 Ratings = 4.856

  • b) 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 The Cedars Care Centre is based on 55 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 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

    • ii) 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 55 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
