Alcedo Care

At Alcedo Care, we understand how challenging and nerve-racking it can be to live with a spinal cord injury.

The damage to the spinal cord affects everyone differently and your needs are unique. Therefore, we provide a bespoke care plan tailored exactly to your needs while continuing to live in the comfort of your own home. Staying at home with spinal injury care means that you can continue to live on your terms, whilst benefiting from the personalised attention of your carer.

We can support you with personal care, companionship, mobility support, physio and rehabilitation. Moreover, we can also provide complex care for those of you who require clinical care needs.

Our nurse-led team can help and support you with:

• bowel and bladder management including stoma and catheter
• airway management
• gastrostomy including PEG feeding
• continence care
• administering medications
• tracheostomy
• management of autonomic dysreflexia attacks

As spinal cord injuries can cause lots of anxiety and discomfort, our teams will work together with you and communicate all your concerns and requirements, including how to manage your bowel and bladder through routines, help you dress and bathe, provide complex tasks, or even just be there for you, ensuring you feel understood and comfortable while receiving care in the comfort of your home.
