Alcedo Care provides a high level of service. Punctual, caring, and helpful. Their care has made Mum's continued independence much easier.
Thank you for your lovely feedback regarding carers supporting your mum with her independence. I will pass this on to the team. Kind Regards. Lisa Operations Manager
Everybody has been very pleasant and helpful. Within 48 hours, they had provided care for my father when I was struggling to meet his needs. I would highly recommend Alcedo Home Care.
Thank you for your kind words, we will pass this back to our team.
We have been really impressed with everyone we have liaised with, from the initial call and assessment to the wonderful carers and management support. We approached Alcedo Care to provide temporary support following mum's long hospital stay and heart operation. Mum is a retired Care Quality Commission Inspector and has nothing but praise for the experience and care she has received. The excellent, proactive and genuine care for mum and our supporting family has made a stressful transition significantly less so. Thank you.
Thank you very much for leaving us a review, we are pleased you are happy with our service and thank you for your kind words. I will pass this back to our team.
The carers give a positive, professional and caring role. They ensure he is clean, fed and happy. I can't ask for more than that. Keep up the great work.
Thank you very much for your kind words and support, and appreciate you taking the time to leave a review.
Apart from the holiday, I have a weekly 3 hour visit which allows me to get out of the house and do things I am normally not able to do.
Thank you for your lovely feedback. We're so pleased to hear you enjoyed your trip to Greece and felt supported, confident, and able to relax throughout.
We have been with Alcedo Care for over six months and the care has been a great help in getting my husband up in the mornings, showered, shaved, and having breakfast! He responds very well to their care and gets up at once (he doesn't when I do it!). Carers are always very friendly and polite, and I know my husband responds to them well. Thank you!
Thank you very much for your kind words, we will ensure this feedback is passed back to our team.
Since taking over my grandad's care in November, I have been extremely satisfied with the level of care. Staff are professional and care with dignity and high standards. The compliance towards medication management is excellent.
Thank you very much for your kind words, I will pass this feedback back to the care team!
My daughter's carers have got to know her well and respond to her needs, she seems happy to go out with them and when she returns.
Thankyou for your kind words, its lovely to hear that Alcedo carers are supporting your daughter and enabling her to go out in the community. bI will pass the feedback on to the carers. From Lisa and the office team.
The lady has been to me on four occasions regarding my procedure. She is a lovely caring young woman who understands the importance of keeping my dignity intact. She's very thoughtful and always smilng and proactive, I look forward to her visits. I have no complaints at all she follows all the infection control and does what is needed. I'm hopeful she'll be with me for some time.
Thank you for your lovely review. We will pass this on to the team.
My son spends quality time with his two carers. They see to his wants and needs. The carers interact with him as much as they can. He enjoys trips out in the community several times a week. I feel that the service the carers provide is right for my son.
Thank you for your lovely review. We will pass this on to the team. Kind Regards.
He looks forward to the calls and enjoys the freedom from his parents. The staff are always on time for us, know us well and let us know in advance of anything, they are always good. Always understanding.

So far our experience with Alcedo Care has been fantastic. They have shown great interest and have been keen to learn how to communicate via a communication board with my dad. Everyone we have met so far has been lovely and has gone above and beyond for our dad. Today is the happiest I have seen him for years and it is down to Alcedo Care.
Thank you for your lovely review. We will pass this on to the team. Kind Regards.
We have had excellent care so far from Alcedo who stuck with us after an incident with my son.

I have met every carer who comes to look after my Mum and have to say every single one has treated Mum with the utmost respect and professionalism. They are friendly and kind, they perform their tasks with a cheerful attitude and can't do enough for Mum. I would have no qualms about recommending Alcedo to anyone.

Hi, my name is Lisa Floyd, and I am the Operations Manager of Alcedo Care Ulverston & Barrow-In-Furness and South Lakes.
I have over 10 years of experience in the health and social care setting, and I have worked in a variety of roles throughout my career, ranging from a healthcare assistant to a registered manager.
I have attended university and completed my foundation degree and bachelor’s degree in Health & Social Care.
My role as an Operations Manager is to enable and monitor compliance with the fundamental Standards across regulated activities and share legal responsibilities in relation to that position with the provider.
I strive to go above and beyond to ensure a proficient service is delivered, and while working here at Alcedo Care, my priority is to ensure we are delivering outstanding care to all clients, as this will enhance the quality of life.
I'm proud to be part of the Alcedo team.

Hi, my name is Tierney Laithwaite, and I am the Manager of Alcedo Care Ulverston and Barrow.
I oversee the day-to-day running of our homecare service, ensuring we consistently deliver high-quality, person-centred care that enables our clients to live safely, independently, and with dignity in their own homes. I work closely with our team to maintain the highest standards of care, support our staff, and ensure every client receives compassionate, reliable, and tailored support that meets their individual needs.

Hi, my name is Isobel Woodburn, and I am the Care Coordinator of Alcedo Care Ulverston and Barrow.
I began my journey with Alcedo Care as a Domiciliary Carer before progressing to Complex Carer. In September 2025, I was promoted to Field Care Supervisor, and I now hold a fixed-term promotion to Care Coordinator until January 2027.
My role involves carrying out spot checks and supervisions with our care staff to ensure we consistently deliver the high standards of care we pride ourselves on. I support the development and wellbeing of our carers, helping to ensure they feel valued and supported in their roles while also making sure our clients are happy with the care they receive.
I liaise closely with families, carers, and other healthcare professionals to ensure everyone feels informed, supported, and confident in the care we provide. I also organise staff rotas and schedules, while working behind the scenes to complete audits, maintain compliance, and ensure our service runs smoothly and efficiently.

Hi, my name is Abbie Knowles, and I am the Care Assessor of Alcedo Care Ulverston and Barrow.

I am the first point of contact for new clients, carrying out assessments and developing personalised care plans in partnership with clients and their families to ensure the right support is in place from the very beginning.
I work closely with other healthcare professionals to ensure our clients' social, emotional, and medical needs are fully supported by our care team. I also complete audits and help maintain compliance across the service.
One of the aspects I enjoy most about my role is carrying out assessments and meeting new clients, as I have the privilege of being one of the first friendly faces of Alcedo Care they meet.
