Review from J D (Mother of Client) published on 7 August 2020 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
At this very sad time, we as a close family have been overwhelmed by the wonderful, caring and respectful way that my son has been cared for. Always so smart and on time, warm and friendly, and always welcome in my home. It has made this heartbreak more warm and loving for us all. We could not have
wished for better, and I will be so grateful for the rest of my life, as will my family.
Reply from Lynsey Howland, Deputy Care Manager at Bluebird Care Sheffield

It was a pleasure to help you and your family through that difficult time. The staff regularly spoke highly of your son and your family to me. Thank you for passing along your kind words. I will ensure these are passed along to the team.

Review from Anne H (Daughter of Client) published on 19 June 2020 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
Management have always been professional and helpful. Everyone is very friendly and respectful. The care is dependent on the actual carer visiting. The majority are good, some are excellent and one or two were poor but after complaining to management, they no longer visit and fees were refunded. We
use Open Pass. You do have to monitor the notes after each visit. We comment on good and poor care. Management usually responds to comments.

Review from D M (Daughter of Client) published on 1 April 2020 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Excellent service from start of care to date of death of my Dad. The staff were amazing. The care, not just for Dad, but the whole family was just perfect. As a senior nurse, my standards are high and they were not only met but exceeded. The fast track team training is evident. They all became like
family. We laughed and cried together with the carers. Caught one of them even doing a dance with him to 50's music. Literally angels work for Bluebird. We thank you from the bottom of our heats.

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:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.636 for Bluebird Care Sheffield is calculated as follows: ( (14 Excellents x 5) + (8 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 22 Ratings = 4.636
  2. 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 Sheffield is based on 4 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as follows: 3 + 0.5 + 0.5 + 0.25 = 4.25
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Home Care Provider does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
