Review from V J (Brother of Client) published on 1 June 2020 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience
Overall services for my brother are very good. The management for my brother seems to work well and the carers who visit are excellent.
One very small problem has been when I've left a message for my brother's carer with the office in Chelmsford, that it hasn't been passed on. (I don't know how that system should work.)

Thanks for all the work you do. Great.

Overall Experience
These are challenging times to provide Domiciliary Care.
Bluebird Care Services has provided care to my wife for the past nine months.
They regularly review their operational procedures to where possible improve the service.
We receive a weekly timetable of visits and they provide a nucleus of staff who know my wife's requirements.
The carers are excellent and treat us with respect, dignity and kindness.

I am satisfied with the service and would recommend them to others.

Reply from Tracey McCormack, Director at Bluebird Care Mid Essex

Overall Experience

I have in depth insight of how majority of agencies operate. What inspires Bluebird Care to be outstanding is their 100% quality care. Their precise listening skills is the key factor in keeping individual clients feeling rewarded and importantly restoring their independence and raising the clients self esteem, confidence and extensively feeling satisfied Bluebird Care operate their service on what the client requires and requests. Giving the client the choices in all the decisions, this made me feel a respected human being not just a client. The professional, well groomed staff with excellent listening skills always present themselves with a crisp clean appearance, adopting health hygiene at it's maximum eliminating cross contamination. Their constantly mindful of their duties the moment you open the door. They're reliable and prompt on arrival using excellent safe guarding skills making sure I am always safe, their thorough assessment full attention to detail of your wishes, safety, medication is all allocated in their duties they perform. I am extremely impressed and completely satisfied of their trustworthiness and respect they show in your home, respecting privacy at all times.

Review from Carol O (Daughter of Client) published on 26 May 2016 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

From their first visit to assess my father's needs, the staff at Bluebird Care impressed us with their professional and efficient approach. Everyone has been kindness itself, treating my father with patient understanding and offering much needed support to my mother whose world has been turned upside down by my father's failing health. The standard of care has been excellent and every effort has been made to accommodate my parents' changing needs. Some carers have been simply outstanding, bringing "life into the flat" and bringing a feeling of relief and security into my parents' often worrying world. We cannot thank Bluebird enough for all they have done and recommend their services without reservation.

Overall Experience

Dad only had Bluebird care for a few days when he was extremely poorly. I cannot thank them enough for their kindness, care and professionalism. They came in at the time arranged and without fuss gave Dad the care he needed, when Dad needed extra attention beyond what had been arranged, again it was all seen to with kindness and care. Thank you.
