About Blue Cedars
Blue Cedars is a residential care home in Farnborough, Hampshire. We support older people and younger adults, including adults with learning disabilities, autistic adults, people with a physical disability and people with visual or hearing impairment. Living here should feel like living somewhere, not staying somewhere. People bring their own belongings and furniture, keep their own routines and decide how they want their day to go. We provide the help that makes that possible, whether that is personal care, support with mobility and equipment, help with medication or simply time and company. Because the people we support have quite different needs, we spend a good deal of effort on getting the detail right for each person. For autistic residents that often means a predictable rhythm, clear warning of anything changing and attention to the sensory side of the environment. For someone with a physical disability it may mean the right equipment properly set up and staff who know how to use it confidently. For someone with a sensory impairment it means consistent communication that works for them. Respite stays are part of what we do as well, and we take them seriously rather than treating them as filling a spare room. A respite guest gets the same planning and the same attention as anyone else. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. Please come and visit if you are considering Blue Cedars.
