Cedarwood House Care Home

Cedarwood House Care Home is a residential home in a rural setting, providing care for up to 20 older people, including those living with dementia. The CQC rated the service Requires Improvement overall. Inspectors found staff kind and knowledgeable, with good support around health, nutrition and communication, but staffing levels were sometimes insufficient, meaning needs were not always met promptly and activities were limited.

Improvements had been made to risk management and governance since the last inspection, though gaps remained in care plan detail, consent records and auditing oversight. The home has had no registered manager since 2022, with a manager from a sister service currently overseeing operations. People and relatives said they felt safe and well cared for.
