The care we have for 12 hours a day is excellent. The care workers do all personal and community care with me. I also have hobbies and my dietary needs. My dog is also in my care plan for walks and feeding. Also, household duties, washing my clothes.

Dad has been receiving support from Alcedo for a number or years, over which time his care needs have changed, often increased. Sometimes these changes have been temporary, as he has become ill or there has been a period of recovery from an illness, but of course there has been a general age...
Alcedo staff have not only responded quickly to these changes but very often been the people to identify issues at an early stage and to coordinate the multi-disciplinary team's response. This has been a lifeline for us, at times when we have had busy family and work schedules to manage as well as overseeing dad's dad to day needs.
Often issues have been resolved before we have been aware of them, the same day. Alcedo have known exactly who to contact, under what circumstances and what the best and safest care package for dad should look like. They have responded to emergency situations as well as offering flexibility in their day to day routines to

We're also particularly pleased to hear that our care team has been able to respond quickly to unexpected situations while remaining flexible with Dad's day-to-day care. Going the extra mile to provide safe, responsive and person-centred care is at the heart of what we do.

My experience with Alcedo is mainly good. Mum gets treated really well the carers that she gets are great if we ever have a problem the office are all great and sort out our problem. There are one or two carers that Mum loves and really looks forward to them coming as it brightens up her day.

Hi Helen,Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such a lovely review. We're delighted to hear that your mum had a positive experience with our carer. It's wonderful to know she was treated with dignity, supported in the ways she preferred, and made to feel comfortable throughout her visit.Thank you again for your kind words.

Would not recommend this agency to anyone looking for care. They do not do what they claim on their website, they treat the family of the service users with no respect, they ignore phone calls, emails and all other forms of communication. The staff provided do not have the specific training for the...
And they will lie to cover themselves when you pull them on their failings! Shocking quality.

Thank you for your review. However, your claims are incorrect, misleading, and defamatory. Our Southport branch has over 65 years of combined experience, and our team's professionalism is well-documented. All your previous allegations were investigated and found unsubstantiated by ourselves and third parties. The communication breakdown was from your end, despite our repeated efforts to contact you, your behaviour during interactions was hostile and aggressive. Our policies and procedures are readily accessible, as you are fully aware, having received and reviewed these documents in the past. We maintain accurate client records and cannot falsify care documentation. Despite our efforts to support your child's transition into adulthood, you resisted their independence and withheld care provision. We champion inclusivity and independence and did not condone your negative characterisation of your child. Due to your obstruction of the care plan, we served notice on your service.

My husband has complex needs so was initially anxious about a new care package. Have only had carers for a few weeks but must say we are extremely happy with the care and attention given. Have seen the same carers (3) since the beginning so we are happy with this continuation of care and feel that they are getting to know my husband well. All are pleasant people, attentive and prompt.
Thank you for your kind feedback. We truly appreciate you taking the time to share your experience. It means a great deal to the team to hear that they are able to make a positive impact and provide exceptional care for you and your husband. Your appreciation will be shared with everyone involved.

I don't live near my mum so needed carers to keep an eye on her, Alcedo has provided the care and necessary confidence in looking after my mum that I needed. Although Mum doesn't need a lot of care at present we know she will in the future with her life-limiting illness, the companionship and care they already show Mum has been fantastic. The management creates a caring, inclusive environment for both the client and family and is very easy to deal with.

I do not live in the UK and I rely on the detailed, twice daily reports filled out by the Alcedo team to monitor the wellness of my father. The carers, and our primary contact, are so thoughtful and kind to my father (who can be tricky) and they make sure that my sister and I are aware of...
After he fell in September I spent some time here to keep an eye on his healing and so was lucky enough to watch the team at work: the care is amazing and he has formed a really strong bond with many of the carers.
I would be more than happy to recommend Alcedo Southport to anyone: they really do actually 'care' about their clients.

Hi! My name is Laura Harrison, and I am the Operations Manager for Alcedo Care at the Southport Branch. I come from Liverpool and have spent a large amount of my working life in the Fitness and Security industry. After deciding I wanted to take a step away from the security sector, I decided to try my hand in the Care Industry.
After a long discussion, I could not have been more pleased to become a part of the Alcedo family!
It was very clear that Alcedo stood out from the rest, and now I will be completing my Level 5 to aid my progression in my new career! I cannot wait to gain more knowledge and experience within the Care Industry and see where it leads!

Hi, my name is Clint, I joined Alcedo Care due to the lockdown. I have spent most of my life working in hospitality, from managing Hotels to restaurants, so this was a big change for me coming into the healthcare industry, but I have really enjoyed the challenges and new opportunities this has given me and I wish I had made this transition sooner.
I have worked with Alcedo Care for around 3 years now and I have gained a wealth of experience whilst I have been here. I have been lucky to progress throughout various roles learning more as I go.
I have completed my NVQ Level 2 in care, Train The Trainer course and I am currently working towards my NVQ Level 4. I love to learn how the body works and enjoy learning new techniques and skills to aid my progression within my career.

My name is Hayley and I have worked in the care industry for 11 years. I started my career as a Care Assistant in a local nursing home. I was looking after many clients with end-stage dementia and it was in this home that I learnt a lot of my core care skills that I still use today. I completed my NVQ Level 3 in health and social care there as I had the desire to progress within the industry and advance my skills to be able to deliver the best service possible and support to get people the best care available to them.
Over the next few years, I worked my way up starting as a support worker with people with learning disabilities, developing to a Senior Carer and then became Deputy Manager of a nursing home. I joined Alcedo Care in 2020 and completed my Level 5 NVQ in Leadership and Management. Due to life commitments, I now work part-time as a Care Assessor so I can spend more time watching my beautiful daughter grow and learn.I have always enjoyed working in care as I love to interact and communicate with the clients, I want to ensure that their health and welfare are supported and that they have a higher quality of living.
