Bluebird Care Sevenoaks is a premium Homecare agency dedicated to preserving the independence and improving the quality of life of vulnerable adults – such as those with challenges around mobility, sensory impairment and dementia – by offering sustainable solutions to some of the problems often associated with frailty, living alone and isolation.

With meticulous attention to infection prevention and control measures, customers can rest assured their care assistants are aware of the risks and how they can be mitigated.

The agency provides a range of home care services, including daily visits, overnight support and live-in care, typically to assist people with personal care and hygiene, meal preparation, managing and administering medication, light housework, shopping and accompaniment on trips outside the home.

However the aim is to do more than simply deliver practical support that meets people’s basic needs: staff aim to go the extra mile so that the customers really get the most out of life – for instance, doing crosswords together, partnering for Scrabble or bridge, resurrecting old hobbies or pursuits, gardening and even assisting with technology, such as laptops, mobile devices and email.

All of this offers older adults around Sevenoaks a realistic alternative to residential care, in order that they can continue to live independent and connected lives in the comfort and safety of home, surrounded by cherished memories and where important social networks can be preserved.

All care assistants are carefully vetted, trained to a high-level and regularly supervised by an experienced, professional and local office team never more than a few miles away.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.671)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.671) out of 10 for Bluebird Care Sevenoaks is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 12 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.8 out of 5 from 12 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:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.871 for Bluebird Care Sevenoaks is calculated as follows: ( (61 Excellents x 5) + (9 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 70 Ratings = 4.871
  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, 0.5 Points for the second and third Positive Reviews, 0.25 Points for each of the next two Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3, 2nd = 0.5, 3rd = 0.5, 4th = 0.25, 5th = 0.25, 6th = 0.05, 7th = 0.05, 8th = 0.05, 9th = 0.05, 10th = 0.05, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025)

    The 5 points relating to the number of Positive Reviews for Bluebird Care Sevenoaks is based on 12 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as follows: 3 + 0.5 + 0.5 + 0.25 + 0.25 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 4.8
  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.
