Review titled Thank you from the bottom of our hearts 💕
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Lisa - Posted on 22 June 2024
From the first phone call when I called in tears to ask for help with my father Bluebird have been absolutely brilliant. They managed to find the time for Renay to come and see us that day (Friday) and care was put into place for my father starting in the morning the next day! Renay was so professional, caring and extremely thorough and we felt right from the start that we had found the best care company for us. All the carers that we have met so far have been lovely, extremely kind, caring and gentle with my father who suffers from advanced vascular dementia and Alzheimers disease. It is so comforting to know that we are in such good hands. Thank you Bluebird ….. your team are amazing!

Review titled Attending to every need
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Patricia Kurjata-Leach - Posted on 26 May 2024
We are very grateful for everything Bluebird Care did for us, the family, in the provision of care for my mother-in-law. They found us an excellent live-in carer who looked after our mother for a year and 3 months. They had similar senses of humour and had many moments of hilarity, which were shared with the family. Over this period, they grew very fond of each other and my mother-in-law trusted her implicitly. When this carer had her holiday breaks, Bluebird Care found us excellent replacements. Later, as my mother-in-law's health deteriorated, her live-in carer took increasingly excellent care of Mum, attending to all her needs. Bluebird Care arranged all required nrs equipment and had Mum's medication reviewed and arranged for an at-home hearing test. We are so grateful to Bluebird Care for enabling my mother-in-law's wish to remain at home, up to her passing. Thank you so much.

Review titled High quality and professional temporary care at short notice
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Rachel Knowles - Posted on 03 January 2024
We needed to arrange care at short notice for my mum over the holiday period and Bluebird Care provided an excellent and high quality service. All of the staff who supported us were helpful, friendly and so kind. Not only did they respond promptly to our needs but they also helped us work out what support would suit us best. We are so grateful for their help and wouldn't hesitate to recommend them.

Review titled True care and support
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Liz Long - Posted on 24 November 2023
The team at Bluebird Burnham have been fantastic! All staff are very professional and efficient and I finally feel supported as Mum's primary carer. Sadly the previous care company supplied by Social Services let mum down badly. I can now relax knowing Mum is fed at every visit – food that is edible and hot meals, also her meds are always given, her home clean and tidy, bed changed, washing put on. Carers put her bed clothes out for her, open and close curtains etc. as she has very experienced, well trained, friendly carers who make her feel safe, cared for and happy. It makes such a difference to have experienced Carers who know what they are doing, and empathy so can see Mum's needs and act accordingly. The difference in Mum is amazing, she's so much happier... I can also relax knowing she's being looked after really well. Being supported by a decent team I no longer feel 'everything is on me', as I know I can just call if additional help is needed. Thank you Bluebird!

Review titled An excellent carer
Rated 4 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 25 January 2024
Bluebird provided both care visits and live in care for my mother over a long period of time. They deserve a good review because the carer who looked after my mother in the last few years superb; very caring, professional, reliable and dependable, using her own initiative to solve many day to day problems. My mother forged a real relationship with her. Bluebird themselves, are very expensive, certainly at the upper range. What you pay for is the continuity of care provision and I am not sure how much better Bluebird are at this than other agencies. At times they seemed much more focused on profit than anything else. Some of the short-term carers they provided we unsuitable - from smoking inside the house, speaking little English, unsuited to the care profession, or spending too much time on their mobile phones (like 24 hours a day). At times I wondered how vetted the carers were. However, I do appreciate the challenges the industry faces in terms of recruitment. That said, Bluebird have always been very prompt to reply to concerns and have always been easy to contact - which is very important and they are a personable and friendly team. They have also been very helpful in sourcing mobility improvements for the house and offering assistance during hospital discharges and GP visits. I also felt that, despite the evident focus on profit, the team who managed our account were very caring and had a genuine rapport with and affection for my mother.

Thank you for taking the time to send us your feedback. It was lovely to read your positive comments about our team and the relationships forged between your mother and our care assistants. It was our pleasure to source mobility equipment and assistance for your mother. However, we are keen to investigate your comments about some staff being unsuitable, as we always aim to provide care assistants that match our customers’ needs. Would you be happy to call our Senior Manager on 01753 693 093 so we can discuss this further?
