Review from Clare M (Daughter of Client) published on 15 August 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
I cannot tell you what a lifesaver Alcedo Care Southport has been. My 89 year old dad who has dementia is still capable of living in his own home and we have had some awful experiences of care providers in the Southport area. That is until I made a phone call to Alcedo Southport and spoke to a member of staff.
What a difference this company has made to our lives. There is an app which is great for me as I don't live with Dad so I can access the carer's notes and see if everything is okay. You can also see the rota of who is calling and at what time. Much better than written notes.
The staff at Alcedo Care Southport are exactly what you want. They really do care. I had almost given up hope of finding a decent care provider so please rest assured that with this company your relative will be cared for.
I get regular phone calls checking that all is ok and if there are any niggles they are sorted.

Please do not hesitate to give this company a ring. I personally would highly recommend them.

Since visiting Alcedo in December 2020, my husband has had good care.

Some carers have shown excellent care, we have now come to think of them as friends. They encourage my husband with walking and talking. I feel very secure knowing that my husband is in safe hands.

Overall Experience

Everyone who has been to us from Alcedo has been amazing. Their care and support is second to none. They treated my disabled daughter with so much love and laughter which is really important to us as she is non verbal. They treated her with dignity and privacy regarding her personal care. I would recommend Alcedo Care to everyone.

Overall Experience
Horrendous service! If I could give a minus score I would.

Don't listen to the care needs of the service users, giving what they think is best for them. Requested day and overnight care, only to find out that when the carer arrives she has been told not to cover any overnights as that is for the family to do. What are we paying for if not that? The carer stayed over in our house in the bedroom assigned for carers and did not do any care after 10pm the first time and then 8pm on the second time. We did however have to pay for the privilege of having someone in our house overnight - even though we did not want her there! In the 36 hours requested, we may have received 10 hours of care/support for our daughter when she requested help and support i.e making drinks/food, getting up, dressed etc. The rest of the paid time the carers spent in the bedroom! Management is shocking and clearly does not understand the needs or vulnerabilities of disabled clients who should have someone with them at all times.

I can't praise Alcedo highly enough. They helped to make my mum's last few months not only comfortable but also happy. I'm so glad she was able to die at home with such a lovely group of people caring for her. Thanks Alcedo.

Your mother was an exceptional lady and I know the carers adored her. Thank you for your exceptionally kind words Elaine and we will be sure to share your feedback with your Mum's care team. Our thoughts and love are with you and your family.

Overall Experience

After being sent home from hospital for end-of-life care my wife found herself in the care of Alcedo Care. I was worried as to how this would work out because so many different carers were involved. But no need to worry, it worked out so very well. My wife loved the carers and they loved her, she was treated so well by them all. Thank you all.

Wonderful company providing an excellent service which assists not only the service user but their extended family members. Kind, caring, thoughtful carers who treated my father with respect and politeness and helped him maintain his dignity at all times. From the assessment of my father's requirements to providing the service, I cannot fault the company. Contactable, helpful, and competent staff. Well done to everyone. I would and have recommended Alcedo to others. Thank you for your care.

I would like to thank all staff at Alcedo Care for there utterly brilliant care of my mother-in-law when she was on end of life care. The women who came to do the care were brilliant, they not only provided care but was very polite and very caring towards my mother-in-law. They went above and beyond for her to make sure her last days were as comfortable as possible. I would very highly recommend anyone who needs care, to turn to these guys they are spot on.

Laura Harrison Job Title: Operations Manager Joined: 2023
Laura Harrison

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!

Clint Oliver Job Title: Care Assessor Joined: 2018
Clint Oliver

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.

Hayley Lawrence Job Title: Care Assessor Joined: 2020
Hayley Lawrence

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.
