It's my pleasure to say your team of carers, I have found that they go all in and above what their duties are. Happy, polite, caring, very very respectful. I would not think twice to give a very good recommendation to other clients that need this sort of care!

Every carer who attends is patient, friendly, understand the care needs required and treats Mum with care and respect. The carers are rarely late and always have a professional approach and chat with Mum, taking her wishes and choices on board. The carers are great with the rest of the family and they are treated as part of the family. We are extremely happy with the support and help the carers provide and the patience and understanding they give Mum.

Alcedo started caring for Mum at short notice after her discharge from an extended stay in hospital due to Covid. I'm really happy with the attention to detail in setting up the care plan and with the way that it's been implemented so far. Mum typically hates change but has quickly become at ease with the team of carers. The level of detail provided by the carers in the app keeps the family well informed and is very reassuring to us, particularly when we're unable to see Mum for a few days. Now that the initial trial period has come to an end, we are very happy to have confirmed ongoing care with Alcedo for the foreseeable future. Thank you!
Thank you for such a great review, it really is appreciated!
All Alcedo Care workers make Dad feel comfortable and at home. They all carry out their duties with care and a very high standard of professionalism. I would highly recommend Alcedo Care.

What can I say about this company? My elderly Mum (91) was terminally ill and given weeks/months to live in December 2021. Her wishes were to stay in the family home, and subsequently, I made sure this happened. Mum initially didn't want any people coming in, but in the end it was necessary. All the lovely staff that dealt with my Mum, really are a credit to the company. Their professional manner, and compassion at such a tough time for Mum, was second to none. Nothing was ever too much trouble. Mum took a particular shine to 2 members of staff in particular, who both went above and beyond their duties. Sadly Mum passed in April, but without Alcedo Care, I would have been lost in the end. You provided peace of mind, not just for me, but for all Mum's family. Thank you all from the bottom of my heart. I would wholeheartedly recommend your company to anyone that is looking for a top-level care company.
Thank you for such a lovely review. It was our privilege to have cared for your Mum.
Overall, the carers we have had have been second to none, always going above and beyond to help my parents. In fact, one carer actually saved my mum's life on two occasions. The manager appears to have everything running like clockwork.

Thank you for your review. We are pleased your parents are happy with our service.
Excellent service from all staff. My husband is treated with dignity and care. I have found all the staff to be very friendly and we are treated like a member of the family. I would thoroughly recommend Alcedo Care, the staff go above and beyond to assist us as much as they can.

Thank you for your great review, Gail. I will pass your comments on to the team!
The care I receive is excellent. They are always professional at all times and always putting me at ease. Any problems that arise they always let my son know who sorts it out. They really do an excellent job on each visit.

A top-class service. The carers are always friendly and very helpful. My mum treats them like friends and enjoys chatting with them whenever they visit. Being on her own, she loves having company and, although her dementia is worsening, she is always very cheerful. In fact, I have never known my mum to be happier in her life.
Good morning Andrew, thank you so much for your lovely review. It is lovely to hear that your Mum enjoys her visits with our carers. It is a pleasure to be able to support your Mum. Many thanks.
My husband and I are very satisfied with the care and help we receive from Alcedo. The carers are also our friends now and any problems we have they are willing to sit and listen, being house-bound more or less, this is a great comfort.

The carers are also our friends now and any problems we have they are willing to sit and listen, being house-bound more or less, this is a great comfort. Being both poorly it's nice to be in our own home and knowing there will be someone calling on us and reporting should we need you. Thank you very much.

All the carers have bonded with Dad and genuinely seem to care about his wellbeing. They are helpful and kind, they are observant of any changes in Dad's welfare. They are always cheerful and brighten up Dad's day, they are a breath of fresh air. As we live in Manchester, it is hard to put your trust in others to look after your loved ones, but we have faith that the carers have Dad's best interests at heart.

Over the past 12 months, my mum has been receiving twice-daily visits from the carers provided by Alcedo Care. All the carers were very friendly and made mum feel at ease. They were extremely helpful and supportive and carried out all tasks that were required. The quality of the care provided gave me confidence that mum was able to continue living independently in her own home with their support.
Thank you for your lovely review. It was a pleasure to care for your mum and we all wish her the best of luck for the future. Best regards.
The carers visit my mother daily, they are always polite and according to my mum they are 'like one of the family'. They carry out all tasks as required, are always smart, and have good communication skills.

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.
