The care is of a high standard with no issues. As our needs for care have changed, Bluebird has made every effort to meet these needs, sometimes at short notice. The staff are professional as well as caring and friendly. Highly recommended.

Carers actually care about Mum's wellbeing and though time is limited, make time to talk and check she is feeling OK. Communication between carers, carers and family, carers, head office and family are good and feedback can be in the form of notes or telephone calls and all visits are commented on using
the app. It all gives a sense that Mum is being looked after properly.

I have no experience of other care providers. This franchise seems satisfactory/good. The review documentation needs revision, however. The need for advance notice of cancellation could be more generous to the client.

I am pleased they are prompt and on time. I don't have personal care at the moment only basic assistant personnel. I'm pleased with the carer that I get. I wonder why I have to pay for full personal care. The staff that I have had so far have proved efficient and caring.

Having used a previous care agency who always seemed to create extra work for me by leaving me to come and sort Mum out most weekends and having total lack of respect for Mum, itis so refreshing to have a team of caring people looking after Mum. Always in uniform, always turn up to look after her and
go the extra mile for her, even when her dementia means she can be difficult at times. As an exhausted family member, this means a lot.

Caring staff who manage my needs in a considerate manner. I have mostly had the same carers, which I requested and the management team responded to. As I have my personal needs carried out by the carers, I wanted those I felt comfortable with and have built up a positive relationship with. My daughters
have dealings with the management team who always listen to what they say and have formed a professional relationship with as a family we are very happy with the service.

This care package has made a great difference to my parent's quality of life, enabling her to remain in the home yet receive care and support that she needs to retain independence. She has thrived, being able to do things that were previously a struggle. Have been very satisfied with service supplied
by Bluebird Care (Birmingham East) to my parent, who is partially sighted and cannot look after herself in a safe manner. She would not be allowed to remain in her own home without the career supplied by Bluebird Care. If it were not for Bluebird Care so far excellent service she would have had to go to a nursing home.

Bluebird Birmingham East cared for my Grandad and staffs were wonderful, really cared and wanted to help him to be as independent as possible. Treated him as a human rather than just a patient. When he was unwell she even gave me her mobile number so that I could keep her updated in her personal time.


Would

definitely recommend Bluebird Care to look after your loved one.
