Review from H S (Mother of Client) published on 6 April 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

This agency offered us as a family the world. We said what hours and what days we needed, yes no problem said the manager that came out, only to find they cannot provide. Staff being told different times, no communication from management when they say they will phone back. Promises, promises but always let down. All they said is sorry, they don’t think about how it would affect my child with autism to be told no dancing this week. The turnover of staff is appalling, but having said that the ones who have come here have been amazing and they are a loss to the company. If I had found this out before we would never have signed up. On joining this company it was a relief for me and my family, to eventually have a break, from all the stress and anxiety. We could not even go to the shop, have any respite, and because the care hasn’t been up to standard as promised, my and my family's well-being has significantly decreased, which causes so much stress in our house and worry.

Reply from Andrew Boardman, Director at Alcedo Care Wigan

We are very sorry we have fallen short of your expectations however we had no alternative but to withdraw our services from the care package we were providing for your child. We always do our best to work with our clients and their relatives but there comes a point when we can no longer put up with...

The girls are fantastic, nothing is too much trouble. Through covid, they nipped to the shops and chemist so that my friend had everything he needed. Most of all they were his company and companions. I can't thank them enough.

Great communication, flawless care experience. The carer was polite, pleasant, punctual, and attentive. Would use again and recommend to others.

The only very minor negative is that Alcedo are slightly more expensive than other agencies I’ve used, but they’re certainly much better at communicating than other agencies!

All of the staff at Alcedo Wigan were amazing looking after my neighbour. Nothing was too much trouble for them. They have helped her maintain her dignity and her privacy whilst remaining at home and also made her smile again.

I’m getting very good care for my son who is on the autism spectrum. Carers take care of him and teach him manners and new skills each day which is commendable. Keep up the good work please!
