Overall Experience

Currently getting care for my partners Nan and they've been amazing from the first initial meet up about what care requirements she needs to now having the carer coming in weekly to help her. I can't thank the team enough for all they've done so far and would recommend them to anyone who is needed care

for a loved one.

Overall Experience

I have been receiving support from Alcedo carers for almost a year now. They support my young som who has physical and mental disabilities with access to the community as well as home support. Receiving support from Alcedo has massively improved his quality of life with developing personal relationships

and engaging in activities outside of school. The carers they have been sending have gone above and beyond to ensure that my son is happy and active. The office staff have been extremely supportive and understanding with the allocation of his hours. I do not know what we would do without them.

Reply from Lucy Deighton, Operations Manager at Alcedo Care Liverpool

It's incredibly rewarding to know that our team has been able to help him build personal relationships, stay active, and enjoy a fulfilling life outside of school. We're also glad to hear that the office staff has been supportive and understanding in organising your Sons care. Your kind words mean the world to us, and we truly appreciate the trust you've placed in our services. We're so happy to be part of your son's journey, and we'll continue to do our very best to support him!

Friendly carer, interacted well with mum. Asked her what she wanted and where she would like her medication. Mum supported through a shower, also helped her to dress and come downstairs, made tea and toast. Cheerful manner, emptyed bathroom bin.

Overall Experience

Would not recommend this agency to anyone looking for care. They do not do what they claim on their website, they treat the family of the service users with no respect, they ignore phone calls, emails and all other forms of communication. The staff provided do not have the specific training for the

needs of the service user and they employ anyone with half a transferable skill and stick them onto complex packages without further training. They don't follow policies and procedures and more worryingly don't have policies for a lot of things that should be standard. The management lack health and social care experience, office staff are practically children and don't listen to word you say. That seems to a be a running theme throughout the agency. Not listening. They can't even get the users disabilities on their care plans right and claim to have no idea about major needs of their clients.
And they will lie to cover themselves when you pull them on their failings! Shocking quality.

Reply from Lucy Deighton, Operations Manager at Alcedo Care Southport

Thank you for your review. However, your claims are incorrect, misleading, and defamatory. Our Southport branch has over 65 years of combined experience, and our team's professionalism is well-documented. All your previous allegations were investigated and found unsubstantiated by ourselves and third parties. The communication breakdown was from your end, despite our repeated efforts to contact you, your behaviour during interactions was hostile and aggressive. Our policies and procedures are readily accessible, as you are fully aware, having received and reviewed these documents in the past. We maintain accurate client records and cannot falsify care documentation. Despite our efforts to support your child's transition into adulthood, you resisted their independence and withheld care provision. We champion inclusivity and independence and did not condone your negative characterisation of your child. Due to your obstruction of the care plan, we served notice on your service.

Overall Experience

I commissioned weekly one hour visits for my mother, sadly diagnosed with Aphasia leaving her completely non-verbal. I can honestly say that the needs of my mother have been met in full, with anything I ask for provided without question. I have now increased the visits to twice weekly which again

was supported immediately and with the the team ensuring that my mothers needs were met at both calls and attempting to ensure continuity of care giver each time. I have been extremely impressed with both the responses from the commissioning team and the carers who are looking after my mother. My mother has had carers now for several months, after some reluctance from my mother she now looks forward to their visit and whilst she cannot communicate with the carers she certainly enjoys the interactions they have. The experience to-date is extremely positive I would certainly recommend Alcedo to anyone looking for complex/dementia type care in the home.

Overall Experience

My sister and I are delighted with the care provided by the team at Alcedo for our mother.
Mum is 94 and lives independently but with some mobility issues.
The carers attend promptly morning and late evening. They engage with Mum and are always friendly, caring and supportive, they have a little clean

around too, even though that is beyond our expectations.
I have recommended them to a friend of ours whose mum is in a similar situation and he is also extremely impressed with their services.
I cannot recommend them highly enough for the attention to detail, and great peace of mind it gives us knowing mum is under their care when we are not available.

Reply from Lucy Deighton, Operations Manager at Alcedo Care South Liverpool

Thank you so much for your wonderful review. We are truly delighted to hear that you and your sister are happy with the care and support our team provides for your mum. Ensuring she feels comfortable, safe, and well cared for is our top priority, and it's heartwarming to know that our carers are making a positive difference in her daily life. Your kind words about their friendliness, dedication, and attention to detail mean the world to us. Going the extra mile is part of what we do, and we're pleased that their efforts are giving you peace of mind. We also sincerely appreciate your recommendation to a friend-it's the highest compliment we could receive. Thank you for your trust and support.

Overall Experience

I was recommended to Alcedo Care by client relatives I know well. The care from start to finish has been excellent. The lady who undertook the initial assessment was brilliant. She knew her role inside and out and knew what was required for Mum's needs. We initially started with a morning call to help

with breakfast and tablets but this has now increased to a lunchtime call.
The care staff have been excellent, and I cannot fault them. They arrive when they say going to and are professional throughout. Mum has taken a particular liking to two of them who are really patient with Mum. They make sure she eats her breakfast and make her a hot lunch. Mum forgets to eat unless prompted. They sit with her and chat, giving Mum some company whilst making sure she eats and drinks.
Many thanks to all the staff who have allowed me to retake the role of a son again, safe in the knowledge she is being professionally cared for.

My husband has complex needs so was initially anxious about a new care package. Have only had carers for a few weeks but must say we are extremely happy with the care and attention given. Have seen the same carers (3) since the beginning so we are happy with this continuation of care and feel that they

are getting to know my husband well. All are pleasant people, attentive and prompt.

Overall Experience

I don't live near my mum so needed carers to keep an eye on her, Alcedo has provided the care and necessary confidence in looking after my mum that I needed. Although Mum doesn't need a lot of care at present we know she will in the future with her life-limiting illness, the companionship and care they

already show Mum has been fantastic. The management creates a caring, inclusive environment for both the client and family and is very easy to deal with.

Many thanks for taking the time to review and share such a thoughtful review Joanne.

Overall Experience

I do not live in the UK and I rely on the detailed, twice daily reports filled out by the Alcedo team to monitor the wellness of my father. The carers, and our primary contact, are so thoughtful and kind to my father (who can be tricky) and they make sure that my sister and I are aware of everything

that he does, or needs.
After he fell in September I spent some time here to keep an eye on his healing and so was lucky enough to watch the team at work: the care is amazing and he has formed a really strong bond with many of the carers.
I would be more than happy to recommend Alcedo Southport to anyone: they really do actually 'care' about their clients.

Reply from Lucy Deighton, Operations Manager at Alcedo Care Southport

Thank you so much for your heartfelt review. It truly means the world to us to hear how much our care and support have meant to you and your father. We understand how important it is to stay informed when you're not nearby, and we're so pleased that our detailed reports and ongoing communication have provided you with reassurance. It's wonderful to hear that you had the opportunity to see our team in action and that your father has built such strong bonds with his carers. We know he can be a bit tricky at times, but we are grateful for the trust he has placed in us. His well-being is always our priority, and it's incredibly rewarding to know that our care has made a difference. Your kind words and recommendation mean so much to the whole Alcedo Southport team. We are committed to providing compassionate, person-centered care, and feedback like yours reaffirms why we do what we do. Thank you again for taking the time to share your experience.

Can't thank the staff enough for the support they are providing for my elderly parents. My mum has built up a great rapport with her carer and looks forward to her visits each week. It's a huge relief for us as a family to know that she is being cared for so well and above all that she is receiving

continuity of care from her carer. This has significantly helped my parents accept the support provided by Alcedo. Thank you.
