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!
It's so lovely seeing Benjamin sing and dancing with the carers. He looks forward to seeing them. I have peace of mind knowing my son is safe, happy and having fun with them.

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.

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.
