Thank you for your review. It is a pleasure to support you and your family. Warm regards from Alcedo Care Blackpool.
The care provided for my father over the last twelve months has been excellent. He was treated with kindness, patience and dignity at a time that was very difficult for him. The company provided by his carers also helped him to cope in a difficult period of his life and we are very grateful.

I needn’t have worried. Over time we have established a routine which suits us all. They have become part of our extended family and bring a breath of fresh air when they visit.
The carers are very thoughtful and we have a bit of fun. They also do little jobs for my disabled husband.
The carers do all they can to get to me at the correct time but sometimes the rotas are difficult for them to keep to time.
Thank you for your feedback. We are happy to support you with all of your needs. Thank you from the Blackpool Team.

The team leader deserves special recognition for her excellent leadership skills and strategic decision-making, and her knowledge have greatly contributed to the well-being of my child.
I must also mention our regular carer, who has done an outstanding job in looking after my child. Her dedication, patience, and hard work have been invaluable in meeting my child's specific needs. Her caring nature and ability to create a supportive environment have helped my child feel safe and comfortable under her care. Alcedo Care has truly satisfied me on all companies, and I highly recommend Alcedo Care to anyone in need of professional and reliable care.

My son has received a very good level of care, with all staff being caring and attentive. There have been some issues with staff consistency however the team have always ensured they have explored as many options as possible to avoid disruption to us as a family. We have been supported by a fair few agencies over the years but Alcedo have been the best by far and I feel extremely confident in their capabilities to give my son the care he deserves.

Until recently, my mum has always been very independent and was very reluctant to even consider the thought of having carers come into her home!
Any concerns were washed away following an initial consultation with the lovely staff member that came out to see my mum.
This was followed by the most warm-natured and very considerate staff that went above and beyond to assist my mum and her individual needs.
In my mum's words, "They're like family members".
Having the reassurance of knowing my mum was taken care of in this manner meant that my family and I could continue to work with peace of mind, huge thanks to Alcedo Care.
Kind regards, Rosie and the team at Blackpool.

Alcedo provides care to my 96-year-old father, who lives on his own. We have a detailed care plan in place and I can check that his needs have been met. As his needs evolve, the management are flexible and innovative in providing and increasing his support. The mechanics of the support management are excellent. Fundamentally, care depends on the quality of carers. The team supporting my father have to know him and their care for him is exemplary. He is treated with dignity and provided with love. Thank you.
Thank you David for a lovely review! we really appreciate it. Kind Regards.
One carer in particular does a great job and a lot for her and makes her laugh. Time keeping is good, if I have any problems, it is dealt with straight away.

Extremely helpful, professional staff, going the extra mile to facilitate my father's needs in an efficient and caring way. Everyone I have dealt with has been so friendly and supportive. I feel confident that my Dad is going to get the support he needs to live independently for as long as possible.

The carers are very supportive and friendly. They are very patient and no job is hard for them. They support me with washing and dressing my top half due to a shoulder operation in January. They wash my hair, assist with my shower, change my bed for me and do other jobs I cannot do myself. At the moment they have a staff shortage due to holidays and sickness, so the times are various at the moment, but otherwise very good service. I would also like to thank the office staff too.
Kind regards,
The manager and the team.
The carers sent to look after my wife was always on time, had a pleasant attitude, and were very attentive to her needs. Very willing to do anything to make her more at home.

Things changed with Mum's condition and sadly after Dad's passing we needed extra help. Alcedo came highly recommended.
I have my own business and hear of problems with some care companies so I was very worried about bringing carers in. But I'm very happy with my choice of Alcedo as my mum is my priority and I'm confident Mum is in good hands.
Thank you for your lovely response. It's great to hear that you are pleased with the service Alcedo has provided you with. Thank you from all the team at Alcedo Blackpool.

Hi, my name is Faye, and I am the Operations Manager for Alcedo Care Blackpool.

I'm Andrea, the Area Manager for Alcedo in Lancaster and Blackpool, with over 10 years of experience in all aspects of care. I started with Alcedo in December 2022 as a Coordinator for the agency side of the business, progressed to Care Manager in Blackpool, and now proudly oversee both areas in my current role.
Originally from Gibraltar, I began my career in care working in a children’s home, supporting families through a 12-week programme designed to help parents reunite with their children. After moving to the UK in 2015, I spent some time in insurance management before returning to care following maternity leave, and I haven’t looked back since.
I’ve truly found my niche in this sector. I love what I do and feel privileged to work with such a committed and compassionate team. Our clients and staff are at the heart of everything we do, and I’m passionate about maintaining the high standards Alcedo is known for.
When I’m not working, you’ll usually find me enjoying days out with my husband and our three children, or relaxing with a good Netflix series.

My name is Michaela and I’m the Deputy Manager for Alcedo Care Blackpool.
This is an industry that is new to me but I felt right at home as soon as I began my work out in the community.
I love to help people and love listening to people's stories and tales of their lives.
I began to think about my future development and looked into becoming an ambassador for my area but then I got an opportunity to join the fantastic office team and become a care coordinator so that I can continue to help and assist with clients' care packages and needs from behind the scenes.
My new role has me facing a lot of challenges daily but I have a lot of support and help from everyone in the office so that we can overcome obstacles as a team.
I have since been promoted to deputy manager and I am so proud to be a part of the management team.
My animals mean the world to me and they always manage to comfort me when I need it. I love to travel and always look forward to my next break away whether it is UK or international.
