Most of the help is valuable, knowing that if I can't do something someone will be coming to help me do the tasks that I struggle with. I like having someone new to chat with each day and I like them showing me their new technology. I like that nothing is too much for them and they even cook my meals at times as it's nice to know that I can take a day off every now and then, I like to be as independent as possible.
Thank you so much for your review Hilary, it is so nice to hear that you are having such a positive experience and getting so much out of your Bluebird Care visits. We hope you continue to enjoy your independence, our carers love chatting with you too, companionship is such an important part of their job. Kindest regards Kelly Combes - Marketing Coordinator.
I really like knowing that someone is coming in to see me and help start me for the day. I find the girls who come all really lovely and very helpful, they are always very bright and cheerful which is really lovely to see. Nothing is ever too much. I really love that they are always happy to have a really good chat.
Many thanks, Leisa MacKenzie - Owner & Director

Thank you so much for your kind words; they really do mean a lot to us and our carers. We very much appreciate the efforts you have gone to, to review our services. Many thanks.
Each and every carer arrived punctually even in bad weather, snow and floods. They all used the client's first name in a friendly manner, showing interest in him as a person, not just a patient. They were gentle and concerned for the condition causing difficulties, dealing with the circumstances to the best of their ability and training.
Thank you for taking the time to review our service.

They manage to do quite a lot in their short visit and always leave Dad very comfortable.
The evening meals have been well prepared and presented and everything has been washed and tidied away very well. Most have made time to have a brief chat and have shown concern for my welfare.

Excellent service with friendly staff.
