Review from Harvey W (Son of Client) published on 31 May 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
The home assessment carried out by the management team was very thorough, transparent and easy to understand. Since then there has been first-rate communications both in terms of the care, invoicing and interest in service users welfare when one or other is or has received medical treatment.
The carers who visit are empathetic and carry out professionally all tasks expected of them. They are reliable and show a genuine interest in the service users.
When there has been a potential crisis, they have kept calm and been reassuring - from simple things such as a door being double locked which was opened by them ok, to dealing with one service user whilst the other was being treated by paramedics.

It has been peace of mind for many months, knowing the service users are in good hands four times a day: breakfast, lunch, tea and to bedtimes.

Review from K M (Wife of Client) published on 25 May 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Care started off okay. Friendly enough carers but management not very good. Tried charging for mileage to take my partner out when social services pay for this. Reported an accident when my dad fell, they did not report it correctly. I had to go and report it to social services so it was dealt with. Waiting on an outcome. They pulled out of the contract early, would not recommend them.

Reply from Richard Atkinson, Regsistered Manager at Bluebird Care Leicester, Hinckley, Bosworth & Blaby
Thank you for taking the time to review our service and we are sorry that you feel we have fallen short of your expectations.
The accident referred to was reported by the carers to the management and all the compliance protocol was followed with relevant parties.

We, as a family, are very pleased with the care Bluebird Care Leicester are giving to our parents. My mum is the client but they never forget my dad and always include him. The cleaning is second to none. I'd have them at my home any time.

Review from Alice S (Wife of Client) published on 31 January 2019 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

The care that the supervisor and care assistants have given us has been outstanding. Our children and other relatives live far away and the carers have come to feel to us like members of our extended family. We have not only received help with physical needs but also for our emotional wellbeing. They have been brilliant at communicating with my husband who is unable to speak.

Reply from Richard Atkinson, at Bluebird Care Leicester, Hinckley, Bosworth & Blaby
Thank you so much for your kind words. I know our staff members will miss coming to see you both as well.

Please let us know if we can do anything to help you in the future.

Overall Experience

We were stressed beyond words with my Dad gradually losing independence for personal care as he grappled with end stage cancer. Bluebird Care were excellent; they listened to our specific needs, gave us exactly what we asked for, came to our aid in an emergency and were 100% reliable. 10/10. Will use them again.
