Home care agency launches new live in care service creating 40 extra jobs

A home care agency based in Merseyside has launched a brand-new live-in care division which will create an extra 40 jobs to the north-west region by the end of the year.

The new live-in care provided by home care agency Alcedo Care will offer 24/7 help at home and provide a range of support, from companionship and emotional support to help with medication, personal care, dementia and more complex care services, with bespoke packages tailored to suit the needs of everyone in need of care.

Available for individuals or couples of all ages, customers will receive a complete one-to-one care service, with the ultimate aim of helping people to maintain their independence, routines and lifestyle for as long as possible and provide peace of mind for family and loved ones.

The live-in care service also offers short term respite support, covering holidays and trips away as well as hospital discharge convalescence.

Established in 2017, Alcedo Care is run by husband and wife team, Andy and Jo Boardman.

Managing director, Andy Boardman, said: “There is a real desire to keep loved ones safe and well at home, which has, without doubt, intensified during the recent pandemic.

“Many families were not able to provide the care required due to lockdown restrictions and we saw a big increase in the number of enquiries for 24/7 care at home.

“Our new live-in care service addresses this need, providing both long term and short-term support that is flexible and represents value for money. The bespoke care packages ensure each and every client receives continuous care that perfectly suits their needs, with all carers trained to exacting standards and employed directly by us.”

The company aims to recruit the very best care workers and retain them by placing value on job satisfaction, training, continued professional development, internal promotion prospects and pay structure.

Mr Boardman added: “Using the latest technology, the families of our clients benefit from real-time remote access to our care notes, ensuring they are kept fully up-to-date at time convenient to them.”

Alcedo Care’s Live-in care is now available across the north-west, with national expansion planned for 2021.

With offices in Blackpool, Southport, Wigan and Preston, Alcedo offers home care services across Lancashire, Liverpool and Lancaster and Wyre.
