They have followed personal care with a series of exercises when able. Further physiotherapy will hopefully mean a further exercise regime can continue with the assistance of the carers who are willing and able.
A very good team of support
Thank you for your lovely comments. Bluebird Care Southend and Rochford strive on our amazing carers and the work they do, they all are such a great credit to us.
Very reliable service, very friendly and helpful carers, always respectful.
Dear Adele, thank you for your lovely comment. Bluebird Care Southend and Rochford strives on our amazing carers and the work they do; they all are such a great credit to us.
Carers are polite, smart, and on time. They find time to have a chat with my mum which has helped her during these difficult times as she has at times become lonely. The carers always ensure all mum's needs have been met before they leave her. Having Bluebird Care involved has given the family peace of mind as I know they will contact me if there are any concerns over mum's welfare. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Bluebird Care to others.
Thank you for your lovely comment. Bluebird Care strives on our amazing carers and the work they do, they all are such a great credit to us.
Mum has been very happy with the service provided and all carers have been very friendly and helpful. Nothing is too much trouble! Thank you for everything you do for her.
Thank you for your review and 5-star rating, we are glad you are happy with our services.
All the care staff is excellent. I have had some problems with the office staff. The care staff are very efficient and obviously well trained, perhaps just as important, they are pleasant with it.
I find the carers very kind and very helpful. What more can I say? They are all lovely.
Thank you from all at Bluebird Care Southend and Rochford for your kind words and review.
Bluebird Care takes care of my mother-in-law with such professionalism and respect. All seem to be very well trained despite the carers being various different ages. They make me and my husband a tea if we are visiting mum which they really do not have to do. She has a number of ailments and can some times be quite rude, the carers never seem to take it personally and remain patient and calm. I cannot fault the carers or the ladies in the office who I speak of mum as if she is a member of their own family, that is all we ever wanted.
Very professional and courteous. Was able to help me with everything I needed as well as treating me with full respect and dignity.
Bluebird Care staff supporting our customers to remain independent and safely in their own homes with our experienced trained staff.
I have found all the ladies very good, polite, helpful and on time (near enough). The office staff have been fine. So far it's working well.
Bluebird Care Trained Staff supporting our customers at home with dignity and respect a better alternative to Residential Care.
I find the overall standard very responsive and attentive and particular attention is paid to ensuring continuity of staff and their understanding of the current needs - which now change more frequently!
Many thanks for your review.

I have worked in the care industry since I was 18 years old and I joined Bluebird Care in March 2017 as a care assistant, then progressed to a Senior Care Assistant role and in February 2019, and now I am the office manager. I joined the office team and became the Care Co-ordinator. During my time with Bluebird Care, I have gained my Level 3 NVQ in Health & Social Care and currently studying level 5 NVQ in Health and Social Care management. I am a Trained Trainer in Manual Handling, Risk Assessments, Oral Hygiene, Autism Awareness, and Parkinson’s Awareness, I am also a Mental Health First Aider.
My name is Charlotte, I am a Supervisor at Bluebird Care, I assist our wonderful customers in all aspects of life, from personal care to taking them out for weekly shopping trips and everything in between! I started with Bluebird Care in January 2018 which was my first ever care job! I always thought I could never do care work as I didn't feel the personal care side of things was for me! I'm glad I took the jump, as I've been on some amazing training and the support you receive from the team is outstanding. I feel that since I started working at Bluebird that Care I have found my calling! I love everything about my job (well most of it!) but I really wouldn't be in my job if I didn't enjoy it. The most satisfying part of my job is seeing the customers being as independent as possible within the home and supporting them as required! I have also, just completed my Level 3 NVQ in Health & Social Care.
I have worked at Bluebird Care since 2023 and really enjoy my role and working with our customers.
It is important to us all that we dedicate our full-time roles to the management of Live in Care for our customers and our Live in Care assistants, to ensure this aspect of our business is managed effectively and to the highest of quality standards.
Live in Care is classed as a significant purchase, and whilst more cost-effective than a residential setting the management of each individual Live in Care package requires a lot of time and attention. If you would like to learn more about how we manage our Live in Care Package and support our Live in Care assistant please navigate to our Live in Care FAQ's under the useful information tab on our website.
Whilst we are all well experienced in this service, we never lose sight of the difference we make in our customers ’ lives. Being able to remain safe at home is a dream of many of our customers and their families. We work to make that dream a reality, ensuring that the customer is safe, happy and living their life to their full potential in the familiar surroundings of their own home.
I have been at Bluebird Care since 2014 and I am fortunate to love my job and be a part of an ‘outstanding’ team. My role is more than a “traditional finance” role, which makes it a very rewarding role – I get the opportunity to meet customers and employees and it’s an amazing feeling knowing that as a team we have made a positive difference to someone’s life and been there to support them – may that be our customers, their families or a Bluebird Care employee.
