Overall Experience

I have always found Blueberry Care to be very professional and reliable. We only have evening attendance once a week but they ensure that we have the same person. If not then we are informed as to who will be coming, a very good service.

Overall, we have had excellent service from both the carers onsite and the office staff. If we have had a request at short notice, it has been dealt with in a prompt and excellent manner. We have been very pleased with the service provided and cannot praise the staff enough.

Overall Experience
We consider ourselves extremely fortunate to be with Blueberry Care. The level of care is excellent. Carers are very conscientious and competent carrying out their work. They are also very flexible and willing to adapt working practices to suit the client as their needs change. My mum enjoys their visit too as they are friendly, caring and fun.
The management are excellent, keeping it all going despite staff shortages at times. They are very responsive and helpful when contacted.

All-in-all a very pleasant and effective service.

Overall Experience
This company have become like family over the last few years. The carers are amazing and extremely professional, always putting the clients well-being first!
I want to thank everyone for fighting to keep Dad in their care.
I am beyond sad that the local council see fit to give my dad to a different company because Kare Plus have struggled with staff illness! I might add that the level of professionalism did not in any way reflect on Dad's care and we knew nothing of the staffing difficulties. I think this speaks for itself!
Obviously, my Dad's mental well-being means nothing to the local council, if it did they would not be taking the carers away from Dad. The carers that cared so lovingly for my dying mum too!

Shame on our local council! Thank you Kare Plus!

On the whole excellent service. Most of the carers are very kind and considerate to my mother as she has dementia. There has been the odd occasion where I have been concerned or had reason to complain about a carer, but this is quite seldom. Therefore, I can say that myself and my family are happy with the service and care received by my mother from Kare Plus.

I have been grateful for the help I have had over the last year from the career and the agency.
I have full trust in my carer, she anticipates my needs faster than I know I need them.

I am in a position where I will need different levels of care and hope Kare Plus will be able to help me.

The service is very good but as I have already mentioned, there is not enough time for shopping. I'd like to have a wider choice with supermarkets and cheaper goods, instead of the very expensive shops. The carers are nice and do excellent work.

Jamie Hickson Job Title: Managing Director Joined: 2010
Jamie Hickson
Hi, my name is Jamie, I am the owner of blueberry care and have been since its inception.

I believe everyone has their own unique story of how they started in the healthcare industry; here’s mine.

My mother spent a period of time in a Care Home where I frequently visited her, always astonished by the quality of the care that was offered to her and the support of the staff that helped her during this time.

Once my mother passed, I realised the care industry was one that was significantly worth engaging in, and with my business background I decided the best way for me to support a caring company would be to create my own; blueberry care

A little over a decade later, I find myself in a very fortunate position with an incredible group of people around me, providing care that the team and myself can be very proud of. My goal is to set the standard for all of those in the blueberry care team and have us provide the best quality care in our area.

So far, I am incredibly proud of all of the people whose bios are below, as well as our day-to-day carers and office staff and everything we have achieved together.

Rachel Hamilton Job Title: Operations Director Joined: 2015
Rachel Hamilton

I'm Rachel and I have worked for Blueberry Care for almost 10 years, I look after Blueberry Care operations.

It was a big decision for me to return to work after a long career break with my children, but one that I am very happy with. My career with Blueberry Care started in accounts, now as the operations director I am extremely committed to our service provision to ensure we deliver Dignity, Integrity, Consistency and Excellence in everything we do.

It's a pleasure to work with such an amazing team that strives to provide the best possible service. I am always looking to improve the processes we have in place and welcome feedback from our clients and staff.

My Name is Debbie Clowry,

I am the Agency Manager here at Blueberry care

I am a people person with a fun-loving personality and caring nature.

I have worked within the Recruitment Sector for 8 years, and love every aspect of my job role.
I have driven the business forward by offering 1-2-1 care for our clients and their families, I find this extremely rewarding knowing that the team and I have added value and made a difference in their lives.

None of this would be possible without my amazing team of workers who deliver the very best of care, they are passionate full of empathy and experienced in complex care.

Karen Williams Job Title: Recruitment Resourcer Joined: 2016
Karen Williams
Hi my name is Karen Williams,

I am the Recruitment Resourcer here at Blueberry Care.

I joined the blueberry team 6 years ago.

I started as a care worker in the Alsager area and I really enjoyed my time out in the field but the opportunity arose to work in the office as the Recruitment Resourcer,

I am the first point of contact for anyone who wants to join our team and I love being able to support a new staff member through the process, I still get a buzz seeing a new recruit put on their uniform for the first time.

I wanted to work in the care sector to help support people living independently for as long as possible.
