It's been a big help to them, and it means a lot to us knowing they have that extra support. The carers have been lovely with my nephew, and the branch staff have always been helpful and easy to talk to. Everyone has made things that little bit easier for the family. I'd really like to see Alcedo Care East and Central recognised for the support and quality of care they provide. We really appreciate everything they do and look forward to building an even stronger relationship with the company.

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.
Thank you very much for your amazing feedback about the positive difference our carers make.
My aunt has been really happy with the care from all the carers and the management of the office team. They have given our family a great sense of peace of mind. They genuinely care and go over and above the expected. Highly recommend!
