The communication is excellent. They constantly assess my sister-in-law's needs which gives us confidence that all her needs are met. Without their care, she would not be able to live in her own home which she wished.

Reply from Holly Starnes, Digital Marketing Lead at Bluebird Care Sussex Weald

The service has been very satisfactory. The staff are efficient and usually very kind. They carry out all the tasks well and according to our instructions. The service has accommodated us when we’ve asked for the carers to come earlier or later.

We first met one of the carers who was very helpful and easy to chat with - then another carer who was the same. The carer has been twice and she is super helpful and very nice. I particularly like her informal, chatty style. This is my first experience with a carer (apart from my husband!) and I was
a bit apprehensive about the formalities. These have been swept away by the carer, who is just my sort of person. Practical, friendly and efficient. She treats me as an equal, not as a 'client'. Well done to all concerned!

I have been a client since April 2023 and have an excellent team of carers in place. I am currently undergoing Beam Radiotherapy for Prostate Cancer stage 2. I am supported by two carers over the next 6.5 weeks, 20 sessions three times per week, due to other serious conditions.
The management at all
levels provide a supportive service.

Bluebird Care stepped in when I really needed help with my mum. All the carers that have visited and sat with her have been wonderful. My mum's condition is quite complex, and she struggles to speak and make herself understood, but all of the carers have given her time to express herself and have given
her the best possible care.
I can't thank them all enough on behalf of my mum, but also me, as their care gave me time for myself. Thank you.

We have found Bluebird carers to be very helpful and polite, especially as my mum was very against having carers in, but she has been surprisingly happy with them. We, as a family, feel reassured that they are being well looked after. The office staff are very friendly and supportive of all our requirements
for my parents. Thank you.

Bluebird Care Sussex Weald have become part of the extended family and I cannot imagine being without them. They have enabled my father to continue living in his home of over 50 years with dignity and independence. Before that, they cared for my mother who have significant physical needs and consistently
showed her warmth, compassion, kindness and humour, which she appreciated.
Everyone across the entire team, including the carers and those in the office, have our complete respect and gratitude.
Thank you Bluebird!

My mother receives care twice a week. This has proved invaluable to aid her independence. The carers are always kind, thoughtful, attentive and give a first-class level of care. Nothing is too much trouble, whether it is just a cup of tea and a chat giving emotional support or more complex medical care.

We have worked with Bluebird Care for the last two years. All of the home carers showed my mother kindness, respect and patience. They were always on time and nothing was too much trouble for them. We are very grateful for their help.

Bluebird Care have taken care of Mum for the last 3 or 4 months. She's suffering with dementia and without the Birdies looking after her extended medication needs and giving her a reason to get up in the mornings (she loves the company and chat although she's pretty much deaf!) she'd not be able to
lead the independent life she wants.
The app provided to us is very useful for monitoring Mum and any day-to-day issues she may have.

Bluebird Care has been able to provide a carer who has looked after my parents very well. I particularly liked the active way they encouraged memory and participation activities. I think the carer does a tough job with great patience.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.823)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.823) out of 10 for Bluebird Care Sussex Weald is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 16 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Home Care Provider is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.823 for Bluebird Care Sussex Weald is calculated as follows: ( (81 Excellents x 5) + (13 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 96 Ratings = 4.823

  • b) 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5').

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows: 3 points for the first Positive Review, 2 points in total for each of the next 9 Positive Reviews (1st = 3, 2nd = 0.5, 3rd = 0.5, 4th = 0.25, 5th = 0.25, 6th = 0.1, 7th = 0.1, 8th = 0.1, 9th = 0.1, 10th = 0.1)

    The 5 points relating to the number of Positive Reviews for Bluebird Care Sussex Weald is based on 16 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as follows: 3 + 0.5 + 0.5 + 0.25 + 0.25 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 5

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Home Care Provider does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
