Overall Experience

The carers from Bluebird Care are very professional in checking and recording information about mum so as a family we know exactly what happens at each and every visit. The app is great and easy to use. The office staff are responsive and thorough around care plans and changing information. What is

really important is that mum likes each and every carer who visits and she enjoys their company. They prompt her to carry out tasks to allow her to remain in her own home. They've recently started to cook an evening meal for mum which is a huge help.

Reply from Lynsey Howland, Registered Care Manager at Bluebird Care Chesterfield and NE Derbyshire

Thank you for your kind words. The team work very hard to provide a premium service and it's always a pleasure to hear that their hard work is paying off. It's a privilege to support your mum.

I have received excellent care from Bluebird Care over the past two months or so as a short-term customer. The care was designed to help me in my later stages of rehabilitation after a longish spell in hospital. All the staff that I encountered were very attentive to my particular needs.

Overall Experience

We arranged a trial of live-in care when my father's needs increased and his granddaughter and her partner, who had been living with him, needed to move away. Bluebird Care were very helpful in providing suitable, experienced carers with little delay so that we could give this a realistic trial. Everything

went well. In the end, we have decided a residential home is a better choice for him. It was definitely worth having had the experience to help us make the choice and I think, for many people, the final decision would have gone the other way.

I do not need a high level of care, just a short time a week to help with personal care for safety reasons. I look forward to my cheerful, caring Bluebirds coming each week, always on time. The business is very efficient with good communication. My life has improved with the help of Bluebirds and I

cannot fault them.

Overall Experience

My mum has been using Bluebird Care for a few months now and they have been amazing.
My mum was very reluctant to have anyone in the house but she has always felt at ease, from day one, with all the carers that go over.
They have been able to adapt quickly to Mum's changing needs, which has been

really helpful.
Would highly recommend it.

Overall Experience

We connected with Bluebird Care in November 2023 and they quickly established a plan of home care visits for Mum. They were responsive to changes in needs, contact was made if there were any concerns picked up by the carers and they were very easy to contact at any time. We were kept informed of any

changes in timing or staff attending, and had a weekly timetable provided. The most important point for me was how they took both Mum and the whole family into their care, they made a firm bond with Mum and she was adopted into their "family", at the same time we felt very included in their care too. One particular incident where I was struggling to handle Mum's dementia, their support was completely invaluable. On another occasion when I was some 160 miles away and Mum had a fall, a quick phone call to Bluebird and someone was with her to stay once the medical support had been and gone. Five stars is not enough to express our gratitude for their professionalism, care and compassion.

Reply from Philip King, Director at Bluebird Care Derbyshire Dales & Amber Valley

Thank you for your very positive review. It was a pleasure supporting your mum and it is always good to work with very supportive family members so that the support provided to your mum could be adapted as her needs changed.

Overall Experience

Bluebird Care have provided domiciliary care for my mum over the last year, this is the first time Mum has needed any care and we were really anxious about where to go and didn't really know what it was Mum even needed from the carers.
Right from the start, I felt the team knew exactly what they were

doing, initially asking what we thought would be a good starting point and then working with Mum and myself to adapt the care and help to support Mum's specific needs. The big strengths of all the team are their focus on Mum's needs, her safety and her choices/decisions about her care. When needs changed they communicated with the family quickly and calmly, making suggestions about what could be done and this also happened during times of concern. The team was completely reliable, always visited as planned and when Mum's needs increased they were able to step up with additional visits immediately. I would have no hesitation in recommending them.

My aunty had great care from Bluebird Care Derbyshire Dales & Amber Valley who came in every day to give her full-time carer a break. The service was professional and friendly and any issues were sorted out in a timely manner. Many of the carers forged great relationships with the manager and I felt

it was a service we could trust.

Couldn't be happier with the team at Bluebird Chesterfield over this stressful time. December calls were all on time and my friend was made to feel special on a day when many elderly people have no one. The weight has been lifted from my shoulders with the support that Bluebird has given us. They go

above and beyond and care for their clients and treat them with respect. Special thanks to one member of staff for the exceptional care on Christmas day.

Bluebirds have been visiting my mother daily for several years now. They provide her with company and all the support she needs to be able to continue to live independently in her own home, which is her wish. They are always bright and cheerful and always caring, as well as being totally professional.

Most importantly, Mum loves them!

Overall Experience

Some eighteen months ago, I was placed in the position of having to find care for my aunt at very short notice following her sudden discharge from the hospital. I approached Bluebird Care in Belper, and within 24 hours, was offered a level of care that allowed my aunt to return home. Starting with two

and three visits a day, and over eighteen months, evolving into 24-hour live-in care with 100% personal care, I was able to achieve her wishes of spending this time with dignity in her own home. Throughout this time, the thoroughly professional team tailored the attention required and covered my aunt's needs, sometimes with visits from up to six or seven different careers per day, depending on the level of expertise required. We went right through Covid without exposing my aunt to the virus - quite a demonstration of the professionalism of the individual careers involved. The best thing was that my aunt enjoyed the company of the careers taking a huge weight off my shoulders.

Overall Experience

My grandad has limited mobility and eyesight, so he lives with my parents who are his main carers, I also care for him as well on occasions. I got married in February and we needed to arrange live-in care for him for a few days. I called a few care companies to try and arrange this and one told me that

they couldn't arrange care until May! luckily we found the lovely people at Bluebird who really do genuinely care about people and want to help, they went above and beyond to arrange a lovely person to look after my grandad so that we were able to enjoy our wedding and relax knowing that he was very well taken care of and very importantly, safe. My grandad told us how much he enjoyed the company of the lovely person that looked after him for a few days. Thank you so much Bluebird Care for everything you have done for us you are such kind and caring people, I would not hesitate to recommend you, you made the whole process easy and stress-free for us all.

Reply from Philip King, Director at Bluebird Care Derbyshire Dales & Amber Valley

Thank you for such a wonderful review. It was a pleasure to support your grandad to enable the rest of the family to share and enjoy your special occasion. When you said that the support was for your wedding, we just had to pull all the stops out! We feel that we shared in your celebration which is really rewarding and helps get us through the less good times such as the current COVID situation. Your grandad was a pleasure to support and we never take for granted being entrusted to support more vulnerable people in the community and family members.
Thanks, Philip

I planned a carers break and required safe and well checks for my dad as his mobility is deteriorating. I was recommended Bluebird by a couple of local people. From the first enquiry I found the team very professional, caring and friendly. The paperwork was very comprehensive too. The carers that

came were very friendly and caring and helped dad with medication prompting etc and made him a hot drink. I am very impressed by Bluebird and would have no hesitation to recommend them to friends and family. If required, I will choose Bluebird in the future- thank you very much.
