COVID-19 Second Booster Dose
The CDC recently released a recommendation for a second COVID-19 booster dose for certain persons. Specifically, a second mRNA booster dose could benefit people ages 50 years and older, as they are at increased risk for severe COVID-19. People ages 50 years and older may choose to receive a second booster dose, if it has been at least 4 months after the first booster. We recommend that appropriate residents receive their second booster dose. The COVID-19 vaccines (Pfizer or Moderna) are available. Please let your physician or nurse know right away if you or your loved one would like to receive the second booster.

Caring staff and fun activities
I like that we have choices for meals. The nursing staff is very conscientious. The rehab team is very flexible around activities. I like the activities provided by the activities directors. They are fun! Housekeeping does well with the upkeep of my room. Social Services keeps in contact with how I'm doing. Administration is on top of any concerns I may have.

Outlook is looking real good!
It’s been a long haul but the outlook is looking real good. The leg that couldn’t move or have weight on it can now have weight on it.

Rooms are clean and meals are very good
I have been at Cedar Ridge since July 1st and had to have 2 surgeries to fix a broken femur. Cedar Ridge has been wonderful. Their biggest asset is their employees. They are so caring and helpful. The rooms are cleaned each day and the meals are very good. You get to choose your meals. I would definitely stay here again.
