Outstanding service from the staff at Alcedo Care would definitely recommend it to families, such polite staff here at Alcedo Care so much support from the team, the atmosphere is so friendly, always professional.
Thank you for your five-star rating. We are delighted that you rated our service outstanding.
This company are truly the best. I've never had such a caring company for my sister. We have had a few different companies over the past two years and Alcedo Care are by far the best one we have come across. My sister has complex care needs so for us it is very important to have the right care for her. She is cared for by such kind, warm and well-trained staff that really do make a difference to her life not just clinically but emotionally. She feels happy with her carers and I've not seen her laugh so much in a long time. We are forever grateful. I must add this also, always on time, wearing a uniform and correct PPE, they understand the importance of safety as well as care. Excellent service!
Thank you for your kind words about our service. We are delighted to hear such fantastic feedback from you about our carers and service. It is a pleasure to care for your sister.
The majority of the time, we have a positive time with care for our daughter. When we have had issues, they are usually listened to and addressed. For myself, my daughter has a lot of autistic tendencies, so new people are difficult. Then we have staff who come regularly and get to know her ways well. This works for us better.
I have found Alcedo Care staff very good and helpful in every way and they all get on and have a joke with my husband. He loves that, it cheers him up. Thank you.
Thank you for your kind words, it is a pleasure to support your husband and we are glad that the services are having a positive impact on his life.
The regular carers that know my mother's needs are excellent and thankfully I see them most of the time.
