About OSJCT The Cedars
Specialist dementia care is the main focus at OSJCT The Cedars, which also offers residential, respite and day care for older people and adults with mental health needs. Care planning considers each resident’s life story, preferences, routines and interests.
The home’s dementia approach includes supportive layouts and clear signage, with activities such as gardening, music, baking and familiar daily routines. The wider organisation provides nursing care for people recovering from major operations or needing longer-term clinical support, although The Cedars is registered as a care home without nursing. Meaningful activities reflect residents’ interests, abilities and life experiences.
