About Us

Alcedo Care South Lakes supports people in their own homes in Kendal and across the South Lakes. We work with older people and people living with dementia, with adults who have a learning disability and with autistic adults, with people who have mental health needs, physical disabilities or a visual or hearing impairment, with younger adults, with people recovering from an eating disorder and with people affected by alcohol or drug misuse. That breadth works because every package is planned individually. We visit first, talk it through with the person and anyone they want present, agree in plain language what help is needed and what they want from it, then review it as things change. Covering a rural and often difficult patch means being realistic about travel and weather, so we plan rounds carefully, arrive when we said we would and telephone if we are held up. It also makes consistent carers more important, not less, and we work hard to keep the same people going into the same homes. Where someone has mental health needs or is in recovery, we agree in advance what a difficult period looks like for them and what they want us to do. At our most recent inspection the Care Quality Commission rated us good overall. Please get in touch and we will come out and talk it through.
