I have found the agency excellent in every way - they are very thorough, reliable, responsive, helpful and friendly. They go into a great deal of detail regarding the condition and needs of the person needing care and have very kindly supplied the same carer on a number of occasions, to give my husband continuity.
My mother's wish has always been to live out her life at home. After a lengthy hospital stay, we've been able to get my mother home with the support of Bluebird. My mother's live-in carer is wonderful. She is kind, caring and attentive. Her patience with my mother, who has dementia, is amazing. I can't speak highly enough of her, the daily carers who come in to assist her and the supervisors at Bluebird.
In his 98th year, my father, a fiercely independent, long-since retired Doctor of Medicine - fully aware of increasing fragility and difficulty in performing daily tasks - but absolutely determined to continue living independently in his apartment for as long as possible, was persuaded to accept the support of carers supplied by Bluebird during the week (my brother and I alternated in visiting him at weekends). After devising a comprehensive care plan in consultation with him, the Lead Supervisor skillfully selected a small ... read more
My family and I are so glad we were able to have the professional care of Bluebird carers for Dad at the end of his long life. They bought him respectful, caring daily help. They raised his spirits and enabled him to carry on living feistily and independently. Thank you to all the team.
The standard of care provided was very high. We were confident that we would be contacted immediately if the carers noticed any changes in my mother-in-law's general health and they immediately contacted either the ambulance or the GP if there was any immediate cause for concern. It was very easy to contact the Care Supervisor by either phone and emails and any requests or problems were dealt with quickly and efficiently.
I would like to pass on my sincere thanks to my father's Care Worker who manages my father very well indeed. He is patient, kind, works at my father’s pace but encourages him and gets the job done. I have been informed by my father's landlady that my father relates to his care worker more than anyone and that is testament to the care worker's skills and abilities. I feel reassured my father is getting the care that he needs to remain in his own home and you cannot put a price on peace of mind.
Bluebird cared for my father for the last four weeks of his life. He had terminal cancer and was bedridden. I contacted Bluebird and we sorted the care within 24 hours. The local manager arranged all the details - liaising with the Fast Track team, the district nurses regarding care and a hospital bed etc. It was fantastic as we could no longer care for him ourselves and we were worried we would have to admit him to a nursing home. It was our desire to keep him at home. The care was better than excellent. There is nothing th... read more
Bluebird Care was the only agency who didn't turn us away and offered to visit to assess mum so that if they could accommodate us they would. After assessing we took slot they could offer, it turned out to be perfect. They looked after both mum and dad. They listened to our needs and directed us to the correct way of doing things. All carers were very good but when one was not compatible, we did not see her again. Mum's care was tailored to suit her daily needs. The main 2 carers were amazing, both very different in characte... read more
My husband needed care on his discharge from hospital following a stroke. He required help with his morning shower, but also needed to be encouraged to learn to do as much as possible himself. The carers from Bluebird Care provided this with consideration and patience. We got to know the different carers and were thoroughly impressed with the kindness and understanding.
