First and foremost, Cedar Community was established so the frail elderly could receive quality health care and kindness. When our original nursing facility opened its doors in 1957, 22 people moved in to call it 'home.' Today, our Cedar Lake Health and Rehabilitation Center serves 229 residents, offering round-the-clock skilled nursing care and an ever-evolving variety of additional services and activities. Our focus is on bringing out the best in those who come to us.
