Review from Dorothy M (Client) published on 21 September 2016 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
The staff at Bluebird are brilliant, they always arrive on time. The staff make sure I am ok and get me everything I need. They make showering a pleasure when usually it is something I dread. The office staff always ring and tell me if my carers are running late or if my call times have changed. Every
single person at Bluebird I have come across, have been very very pleasant and I have no issues with recommending them to anyone else.

We have a carer come once a week to give my wife a bath. The carer is very good and does try to persuade her to have a bath as she can be very stubborn sometimes. I am very pleased with our carer.

Very satisfied with my care, all the staff have been very kind. I have always been treated with dignity. One request would be, could the client be advised from the office, if it gets later than the given call time.

Review from John B (Cousin of Client) published on 26 February 2016 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I was the next of kin and Registered EPA holder for my cousin, recently deceased, who lived in York; I live in Leicestershire.
Both her legs were amputated above the knee twenty years ago. A determined personality, she lived independently until a major accident in 2011 necessitated a heavy duty care
package delivered in her adapted bungalow. She was not the easiest person with whom to deal! Especially with the distance involved (3 hours drive) it was vital for me to employ a carer in whom I had total trust.


Bluebird did an excellent job in every respect. Visiting four times a day, the carers built up a relationship of mutual trust providing a full range of personal services with complete professionalism. This is coincidentally a tribute to the quality of management and training. They were very responsible in keeping me informed of any significant event of development,


I am confident that Bluebird made a major contribution to the quality of her life and highly recommend them.

The staff are reliable, caring and very cheerful. They take time to chat to my husband, whilst caring for his needs. They keep me fully informed of any changes in his health and care needs.

I appreciate everything my carers do for me. I enjoy the carers company. My carers help me stay in my own home, assist me with all my needs. They get me ready to go visit my wife which I'm most grateful for as I miss my wife and my weekly visits are very important to me. My carers are waiting for me
on my return to settle me back in at home, cup of tea, lovely.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Bluebird York have been looking after Mum (aged 92 and very confused) for nearly 2 years and we are delighted with the service. The carers are always professional and friendly and have Mum's best interests at heart. Their care means that she can stay with us rather than go into a nursing home. I
always recommend the service to friends. Thank you for your cheerful care.

Would really recommend this company to anybody. They take their time with their clients, often my mum would need more time than was allocated and this was rarely a problem for the carers attending her. I was impressed with the advise that they gave to me regarding my mum's care and when we needed to
find a home for my mum they supported me the whole time. Couldn't praise them enough
