Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Provides a very high level of care. Staff, I would rate as very good through to exceptional. The management team are very accessible and are always proactive with any issues that occur. Not only do Kare Plus Cheshire provide a service to their client, they are always willing and do provide support and
advice to me.

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.586) out of 10 for Blueberry Care and Nursing Services is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.7 out of 5 from 8 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Home Care Provider is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.936 for Blueberry Care and Nursing Services is calculated as follows: ( (44 Excellents x 5) + (3 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 47 Ratings = 4.936
  2. 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5').

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows: 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.5 Points for the second and third Positive Reviews, 0.25 Points for each of the next two Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3, 2nd = 0.5, 3rd = 0.5, 4th = 0.25, 5th = 0.25, 6th = 0.05, 7th = 0.05, 8th = 0.05, 9th = 0.05, 10th = 0.05, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025)

    The 5 points relating to the number of Positive Reviews for Blueberry Care and Nursing Services is based on 8 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as follows: 3 + 0.5 + 0.5 + 0.25 + 0.25 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 = 4.65
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Home Care Provider does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.

Jamie Hickson

Job Title: Managing Director Joined: 2010

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.

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.

Job Title: Recruitment Resourcer Joined: 2016

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.
