Coronavirus Update

Cedars Care Group would like to update visitors and offer reassurance that we are doing everything practicable to keep our residents and employees safe during this unprecedented spread of  Coronavirus (COVID-19) and we would like to confirm that all of our homes have regular testing to ensure we are keeping COVID free.

As per the new Government announcement on 22nd February 2021, we would like to confirm that we are still committed to following the Government Guidelines and our home manager’s priority is as focused as ever to ensure that their home environment is safe for residents, families and their teams.  Please be assured  that we are doing our upmost to get things in place as soon as possible, so visits from designated family members can commence.  These preparations include the vaccination of as many of our residents and staff as we are able to accommodate.  We are pleased to advise that all residents who were eligible and willing to have the vaccine have received the first dose of the vaccination and we are now waiting for confirmation of when the second dose of the vaccine will be available to us.

As always we will be continuing to monitor the  Government guidelines due to the fluidity of this situation and any changes will be communicated out to our residents’ main point of contacts in the usual way.  Information will also be updated on this page as and when changes need to be made.

We are still encouraging our residents families to use Skype or other forms of video calling in order to keep in visual touch with their loved ones.  We are also more than happy for families to come and have window visits where possible.

For anyone who is interested in applying for one of our vacancies, we would like to confirm that we are still conducting interviews via zoom and employing new staff members.  If an interview is booked for you, details of how it is going to be carried out will be advised accordingly as the process will vary between each home.

Please be assured that we will keep you updated as soon as we have any new information to share and we would like to thank you for your support at this time.  For your further information please see our COVID-19 risk assessment to reassure you that we are taking all necessary precautions required at this time.  Covid 19 Risk assessment
