Percentages are CQC scores from its newer way of assessing homes. ?
CQC scored 33 standards: 22 good, 11 below good. Use “See the breakdown” on each key question for its standards. ?
CQC hasn't inspected this home for more than 5 years. It re-inspects based on risk, so an old rating doesn't count against a home on this site, but it may not reflect the home today. ?
The Cedars is a 51-bed nursing home in Wolverhampton, Shropshire, run by Springcare (Albrighton) Limited. It is registered to care for older people, people with dementia and younger adults. The typical home in Shropshire has 29 beds, so this one is bigger than average.
