Alcedo care have been providing care for my father over the last few months. I can't thank the staff enough for the care they have provided & continue to provide. They are attentive to his complex needs and are always happy to help with anything he needs. It is a huge weight lifted off our shoulders knowing he is being so well cared for. Thank you all so much.

Overall Experience

My carer is always friendly and does all the jobs I need help with. My carer does my jobs the way I like them doing. I'm always treated with respect and dignity. If anything comes up i.e. like pop across to the shop, open a window that I can't - the carer will do it for me. If I need a meal, the carer is always happy to do this for me. I like the way my carer can see things that need doing that I hadn't seen. They will do this without question. I enjoy my chats on visits.

Overall Experience
I have been with Alcdeo Care around two years and all the carers have been great. The staff in the office are wonderful and always happy to help.

The carers always do as I ask without a second thought. I couldn't speak highly enough of everyone. Four members of staff in particular all go above and beyond. They always take the time to chat and have a laugh with me. Three other particular members of staff are always at the other end of the phone.

Overall Experience

Initial problems - to get to the correct hours needed at critical times, the biggest problem was getting through to the local county council (up to 1-hour wait on telephone) otherwise, the service given was good. In some cases, over and beyond the call of duty, for this we are very grateful.

Thank you for your review. We are delighted that our service went over and beyond the call of duty. It was a privilege to provide the care for your family member.

Overall Experience
From day one Alcedo have been exceptional.
Everyone, carers, office staff & management have been compassionate, knowledgeable, friendly & professional. Always there when support was needed, not only for my relative but for me as well. Phone calls are always either answered quickly or promptly returned, unbiased advice is given & anything needed is put in place.
Communication is excellent.
Always going above & beyond what other providers have done. Regular reviews are held, even when the care package is suspended due to long-stay hospital admissions.
Highly recommend Alcedo, huge thanks to all the staff for helping make a difficult situation as easy as possible.

They really 'care'.

Thank you so much for your kind words. We will share this lovely feedback with all of our team. Our team all work hard to ensure that everyone feels cared for, including family members, so I am delighted to hear about your experience. It has been a privilege and a pleasure to care for your relative. We wish you and your family all the very best.

My nan recently started with this company. They were so professional from the assessment to the care she is receiving. I don't have to worry as much now as I know they are a phone call away. The carer went above and beyond making an extra fuss on my nan's birthday which we all appreciated, thank you.
