My mother needed carers at home before moving to a residential home. This was her first experience of needing care, after being very independent. Each of the Bluebird carers was friendly and caring and treated her with respect. Because of this she settled well and was happy with their care . I'd very happily recommend Bluebird.
We are delighted to hear that your mother's first experience of receiving care was a positive one. Supporting someone who has been independent to feel comfortable, respected and at ease is incredibly important to us, and it's...
From the first point of contact Bluebird were sensitive, understanding and respectful of my mother's needs.This is not a one size fits all company - they really take the time to listen and understand the person rather than just their condition. Kind, flexible and totally professional. Highly recommend.
Thank you so much for your kind words and recommendation. We're truly grateful for your feedback. At Bluebird Care, we believe in delivering personalised care that respects the individuality and dignity of each person we support. Knowing that our approach made a positive difference to your mother's experience means a great deal to our team. Thank you again for placing your trust in us.
Their courage, personal dedication and professionalism are impressive. Thank you.
Thank you for such kind words, we are also extremely proud of our care team and the dedication they show, particularly in such extreme conditions. Supporting our customers at any time is important but the significance of that support is heightened when we have adverse weather.
I am grateful for all the care I receive from Bluebird Care but some carers are definitely better than others.
Thank you very much for your feedback. All of our staff complete the same accredited training but we do understand that some personalities suit better than others.
All of the team have been professional, caring and empathetic.
This has put us at ease knowing she was being carefully looked after with dignity and respect at home.
I would definitely recommend Bluebird Care to anyone seeking this type of service.
Thank you so much.
Thank you, Sharon, for taking the time to write us a review. Your kind words will be shared with the whole team who we know enjoyed the time spent with your mother. Wishing you all the best for the future.
Excellent.
Delivering a prompt, safe and effective service that our customers and family members are comfortable with is a high priority for us so we're happy to have met your expectations.
From first telephone contact, Bluebird Care Exeter have been professional, approachable and caring. They take onboard any changes in care required, whether permanent or on a temporary basis. Mum looks forward to her daily visits and is enjoying the variety of conversation and interaction that each carer brings. As a family, we have been impressed by the care and commitment from every carer we have had contact with and can relax in the knowledge that we can access additional services if and when needed. We would not hesitate to recommend Bluebird Exeter to friends and family who need that extra support in difficult times. A big thank you to you all, Bluebird Exeter.
Thank you for your feedback. One of our priorities is the ensure that not only our customers but their family members feel confident and safe with the service we are providing, so we're very happy that you feel we're achieving this. We will share your feedback with the whole team as this reinforces the fantastic job they're doing.
Carers have shown compassionate care and close attention to my father's needs. The four main carers have got to know my dad well and are tuned into any changes to his heath or wellbeing. I particularly like that my dad has developed good relationships with his regular carers and whilst they respect his independence, I am informed of any concerns.
Thank you for your kind review, the carers enjoy visiting your dad. It is a pleasure to support him. Bluebird Care Teignbridge will feedback your lovely review to the regular staff.
They always try to accommodate the time of visit that I want. The carers are always on time, if they are unavailable or delayed, a telephone call lets you know. The carers always have a smile on their face and will do whatever you ask them to do.
Thank yo so much for your review, I'm especially pleased to hear you are notified of any changes to your visits!
I do not know how I would have coped looking after my auntie, especially in the last seven weeks of her life, without the care, help, support and experience of Bluebird Care. The management, office and carers were all amazing. They always went more than the extra mile for us. My auntie loved the carers who took such time with her and were always cheerful, friendly and professional during every visit. They deserve every bit of praise - they are all superb, a real credit to Bluebird as a company. Absolute angels!
Thank you for your kind review, it was a pleasure to support your aunt.
Service is fine but would be better if visits could be earlier in the day, closer to 9 am.
Thank you for taking time to review Bluebird Care Teignbridge, we will aim to look at your times in the future with an earlier time.
I look forward to my visit from the carers. They are always very friendly and give me valuable support which helps me to be able to stay living in my home.
Thank you so much for taking the time to complete this review, we are really pleased to be able to support you to live at home.
The carers are polite and always ask if there is anything extra to do.
Some are more thorough at household tasks than others.
Thank you for your review it is much appreciated, we will look at your times in future and hopefully amend them.
Friendly and caring. I look forward to visits.
Many thanks for your kind words, we will feed this back to the care team.
Both management and care provider, demonstrated a high degree of professionalism. Care was administered with thoughtfulness, skill, discretion and maturity. Culinary skills were particularly appreciated and contact with neighbours helping with transport for shopping (in a rather remote location), was handled with ease and competence. Though only for a short time, the whole care period proved very beneficial to recovery.
Many thanks for your kind words, we will feed this back to the care team.
The care I have received, has been excellent by all the carers attending me.
Many thanks for your kind words, we will feed this back to the care team.
My uncle was probably one of Bluebird's shortest-lasting clients due to his rapid deterioration in health, but in that brief two weeks that you cared for him, I was really impressed with your obvious care and concern for him. This was made plain to me in your constant communication with me and your simple concern for his welfare. It far outshone the care and communication, I and he received from his months in a care home. Stay as kind as you are.
I cannot talk highly enough of Bluebird Care. From the first phone call, through to the assessment and then to the carers, I have received an outstanding service. The carers supporting my father, over a period of months, have been highly trained in all areas and carry out their duties with respect. They have all been so kind and friendly and keen to acquaint themselves with the family. My father has enjoyed the company of all the carers and appears content and at peace. Bluebird Care keep me well informed and whenever I am in contact with them I am greeted immediately with a very caring and understanding response. Thank you.
Many thanks for your kind words, we will feed this back to the care team.
I have no hesitation in recommending Bluebird Care Exeter to anyone in need of home care services. In my opinion, all their staff do an exceptional job in a challenging work sector. I find the care staff well trained and extremely helpful, and the office staff very responsive and efficient. Everyone is always willing to go the extra mile. I have mobility issues and have used Bluebird services on an intermittent basis for over five years now, whenever my husband is away. It gives us great peace of mind to be able to rely on help from Bluebird when needed.
I only have Bluebird for bed making and general cleaning purposes. All carers are efficient and polite. When finished the task, and always asks if there is anything else I want doing.
