I direct the Meals on Wheels program in southern Maine and we have partnered for many years with The Cedars for kosher meals . Our clients getting those meals are very lucky. Annually we need to inspect the kitchens. The Cedars kitchens are the gold standard for commerical kitchens - both the regular one and the kosher one.
I have volunteered with the Cedars Auxiliary for years. When asked to chair the golf tournament, the answer was obviously "yes!" I love that this organization truly respects the residents and treats each person as an important member of the community.
I had heard wonderful things about The Cedars, so when it came time for my mother to need long-term, skilled care it was my first choice. She recieves excellent, individualized care from the well trained staff. Her physical and emotional health have both improved since she started living there. It is very reassuring to know that she is in a place where her needs are being met with kindness and expertise.
I went to the Cedars rehab after some surgery this winter. What a revelation -- the therapists were first rate and my room was comfortable with terrific round-the-clock care. Even the food was good!
