Review from J H (Son of Client) published on 6 May 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
I have been dealing with Bluebird since Oct 25 following my mother having a second stroke. The care coordinator has been nothing short of amazing; always on hand, early mornings or late evenings. While attempting to juggle the support my parents have needed and the support that they have felt necessary has been a real challenge and the care coordinator has always adapted caringly at very short notice.
Following a fall that hospitalised my father at 10pm, 24hr care for my mother was implemented immediately at significant inconvenience to both carers and coordinator. They could not have been kinder or more helpful.
The only issue occurred while our usual care coordinator was on holiday and sadly the response was not ideal. However, I have every confidence that with the new office team there will be no repeat.
As a family we could not be more grateful to Bluebird for the kindness and efficiency they have shown to me and my parents.

Personally I cannot thank or praise them enough!

Overall Experience
My neighbour has been using Bluebird Care for almost 3 years now with two visits a day.
Bluebird are reliable!!!! Very occasionally a carer may be unavoidably late due to an accident on the roads but otherwise, in 3 years, they have never been late, and certainly not without calling to let me know. For me this is extremely important.
Their systems are efficient, from booking, updating the care plan, receiving emailed rota's, to daily update into their App, (which I can access and see everything I need to see), through to billing. They take all my calls seriously and act on whatever I need without question.

Finally, their carers are fantastic. They are warm, friendly, well trained, good at letting me know any concerns, keeping me updated, but most of all, they seem to really like the company, feel appreciated so do their job happily! That means a lot to my neighbour. There is not one she doesn't like.

Morning call, carer tells my dad to leave the urine soaked bedsheets to dry out? After the evening carer has been and gone, I visit my dad to find wet bedding still on his bed. Is this what this care company calls care? Treat your clients with the kindness and dignity that they deserve. New care provider starting, not a moment too soon.

Review from Sarah R (Daughter of Client) published on 29 July 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Bluebird Care Wiltshire South is providing Mum with incredible care at a very challenging period in her life and the life of our family. She fell four months ago, sustaining potentially life-changing injuries, and on discharge from hospital, has needed daily personal care. The care team are kind, professional, good-humoured and hard-working. Their visits have Mum laughing and chatting, transforming her mood when at times she feels understandably low. They are respectful of her needs and very supportive of my father who is now her full-time carer. The office team bend over backwards to sort out rotas and medication, are instantly responsive to calls and emails and always patient with enquiries. With so many new problems to solve, it is such a relief to know they have everything covered. They even made us aware of health issues Mum had missed, maybe saving her life. All of them are a huge blessing to our family, I am so grateful for their care and I cannot recommend them highly enough.

Review from Graham C (Husband of Client) published on 4 July 2024 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience
Care is generally satisfactory and carers are pretty good at managing my wife's verbal aggression. She responded better to ethnic British carers - a culture matter.

More attention could be given to catheter training. Regarding administration, telephone support has been very good. Less satisfactory has been the rare notification of late arrivals or change of carer.

Reply from Debi O'Brien, Marketing Coordinator at Bluebird Care Wiltshire South

Thank you for the review and we will take all your comments into consideration. We have already added some additional catheter training as per your request and continue to make our best efforts to navigate the Salisbury roadworks to be on time for visits. We appreciate all feedback and strive to be better in every way, always.

My family and I would like to express sincere gratitude for the professional, respectful and compassionate care given to my mother during the last few weeks of her life. We were lucky to have a wonderful live-in carer, who was attentive and discreet. We would also like to thank the supervisor who liaised with all the relevant NHS providers to ensure that our mother had all the necessary equipment, facilities and community nursing that allowed our mother to pass peacefully in her home. We would highly recommend Bluebird Care Wiltshire.

Bluebird Care has been helping my dad for the last six months. He recently had an unplanned stay in hospital and needed extra visits after he was discharged. I was expecting a delay before this could start but they set it up extremely quickly. This has given me and Dad peace of mind - thank you.

Overall Experience
I have found the help of the carers valuable and useful in many ways, depending on my physical abilities of the day. Particularly putting clean sheets on the bed as needed, housework, especially cleaning. Recently I have wanted to go up to the post office and we have gone either by car or pushing my chair, depending on the weather.

Communication is important. At times I need to remind her to speak up and face me to hear because of my deafness. I would like to thank them for all their help.

Review from Simon T (Son of Client) published on 28 June 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
All the carers I have met at my mum's home have been extremely friendly and fully aware of my mum's needs. In addition, they are always happy to chat with my mum which fulfils a very important social aspect of the calls. It's not always an easy job but they are always smiling and kind. I know my mum is very appreciative of their visits. I also like the fact that when I'm there, they are proactive in asking if there is anything else they can do once regular tasks are complete. Interestingly, staff have mentioned that they enjoy working for Bluebird Care.

I'm always contacted promptly if there is an issue that needs to be sorted out.

Overall Experience

We have experienced several different care companies for my brother and Bluebird have been the best. The training is very thorough. The carers are obviously supported well which comes across at every visit. Communication is very easy and always listened to and acted on if necessary. They are very reliable and have never missed a call through Covid or bad weather conditions. The company feels like it works as a team of friends who are always there to help, listen and carry out the job very professionally.

We started to receive support from Bluebird Care Wiltshire South in December 2020. They have been able to provide at home care for my father who has vascular dementia and also emotional support to my mother who is his main carer. My parents have found all of the staff to be friendly, caring and they look forward to seeing them. I have also found the administrative staff to be efficient and very approachable. I can’t recommend them highly enough.
