What this means for your family
Cedar Crest is well-regarded for its friendly staff and active social environment, making it a pleasant setting for seniors. However, families should observe the state of the exterior and parking areas during their tour, as recent feedback suggests some areas of the campus may be showing signs of wear.

Cedar Crest Health Center shows recurring issues with fire safety systems and building maintenance across multiple surveys, including problems with smoke barriers, electrical systems, and sprinkler maintenance that persist despite corrections. Two families filed complaints in 2023 regarding abuse reporting procedures, which were corrected. While all deficiencies have correction dates, the pattern of repeated fire safety violations warrants attention during visits.
