Review from Jean B (Daughter of Client) published on 13 March 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My mother has received care from Bluebird Care since October 2020. We chose them initially because of their person-centred care and commitment to sending a regular team of carers as my mother has dementia and familiarity is important. They have delivered on this commitment. The carers coming to Mum have been kind, conscientious, respectful and gentle, but also fun, many said they really enjoyed caring for her and working for Bluebird. Their care enabled her to remain healthy and content in her own home for far longer than many professionals anticipated. She especially enjoyed companionship calls, when she was taken out on trips to a variety of places, which made her very happy. The company is very easy to deal with, communication is easy and prompt and everyone in the office, including the managers, knows and cares about their customers, their circumstances and their welfare. We will always be grateful to Bluebird for being an important support for Mum and for us as a family.

Would just like to say how happy we are with the excellent service and care we receive from all the carers and team at Bluebird. They treat my father with great care and respect. We can not fault any of your carers. It's a very hard decision when a loved one has an illness and you have to find care for them thinking who can you trust, but with Bluebird, the trust is there and wouldn't go with any other company.

Reply from Abigail Walford, Marketing Manager at Bluebird Care Dudley, Kidderminster & Malvern
Hi Kerry,
Thank you for your wonderful review, we take great pride in our incredible carers and are so happy you see this too. The care of our customers is our priority and allowing them to stay in the comfort of their own homes is beautiful to watch.

This Home Care Provider is excellent. They went out of their way to get care in place to get my husband out of hospital. We only used them for a very short time but each of the care team was so helpful. Never rushing my husband to do anything. And so patient. Such a lovely bunch of people to deal with, I can't praise them enough. Thank you.

Bluebird Care cared for my sister who is disabled and has dementia.
The whole team do a magnificent job.
Nothing is too much trouble. Everything I asked for was provided.
Every team member is kind, compassionate, reliable and professional. I cannot thank them enough for the care they gave to my sister and to me over the past few years.
I hope they know how appreciated they are and what a valuable job they do. You all can be very proud of the service you provide.

Thank you so much

Mom was very reluctant to agree to carers in the home but since Bluebird carers have been supporting her she looks forward to their visits and praises them constantly. I love the way they make her tea in the morning - just the way she likes it, it’s the simple things that really matter and they really do care.

Reply from Adrian Witt, Owner at Bluebird Care Dudley, Kidderminster & Malvern

Thank you so much for that lovely review. It is great that your mum has taken so well to our carers coming into her and that she now looks forward to their visits. We look forward to continuing to make her tea, just as she likes it!

Review from Carol G (Wife of Client) published on 15 March 2021 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

I have reviewed the wonderful Bluebird Care Company before, but have to add a comment about their recent reaction to our changing needs. Following advice from carers who have called recently, and been concerned for my husband's welfare, I asked if the time of his calls could be altered. This is going to happen immediately, and we quite simply cannot thank the carers and the admin team enough. The new timings will make a huge difference to my husband's well-being. I have to once again, stress what an outstanding company Bluebird is. Carers are unfailingly punctual, courteous, respectful of my husband and his needs and yet also very friendly, lighthearted and always smiling. We have every confidence in them. They begin and end our days in peace and comfort. They are clearly committed to the company and to the people they care for. Thank you, Bluebirds!

Review from Paul F (Client / Service User) published on 8 February 2021 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
The service received from the carers for our elderly mother who has dementia is very good. They have been able to assist with the routine requested admirably. Any "tweaks" in the service they provide or "one-off" requests have been undertaken.
Carers also give feedback on any potential health issues.
Administration is very good, invoices are always correct, timetables delivered in advance and any alterations in service are advised in advance.
Bluebird Care also update us on other services available.

We would encourage Bluebird Care to give advice on interactive activities that would improve our mother's mental health and also on better products that would help e.g. a better phone system. We have stopped services momentarily due to Covid but will return - an update on carers' injections may speed this up.

Thank you very much for this review. I'm happy to report that all of our existing carers have been given their first vaccine and will have been given a date for their second one.

Overall Experience
During the Christmas period my brother, who is normally the main carer for my father contracted Covid and was unable to provide our father with his care needs. At short notice over the holiday period the field supervisor arranged support for my father. At this stressful time Bluebird Carers ensured my father ate hot meals and made him hot drinks.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank the field supervisor and all the carers who helped and supported my father at this time.

Overall Experience

Bluebird have been supporting my Mum over the last couple of years and she has always been satisfied with the care that she has received. My Mum is extremely vulnerable and therefore feels happier when she has familiar faces and staff entering her home - especially during an evening. She realises this can sometimes be difficult having a consistency of staff to care for her, and appreciates this when possible.

Overall Experience
I have been using Bluebird Care now for around a year and I took great care in choosing a provider due to the failings of another care company. I have to say that Bluebird provide an exceptionally brilliant service. All of the care staff and office staff are so polite and nothing is too much trouble for them. I have been provided with a rota every week without fail so I know which carer is due on which day. I can honestly say that also the carers have always come at the agreed time and are never late.

I have complete trust in all of the careers and the company as a whole, I am just so happy that I made the move to Bluebird.

Overall Experience

Bluebird Care carers visit my parents weekly. My mum tells me that all the carers are friendly and efficient in all the cleaning tasks requested of them. Once, when I rang, Mum told me that the carer was listening to some music with my dad. He has one CD that he listens to over and over again! A fresh pair of ears - great for my mum and him! As I live 3 hours away, it is very reassuring for me to know that they are being supported by a caring team. I have spoken with several members of staff on a number of occasions and have found everyone to be empathetic, knowledgeable and most professional. Thank you!

Overall Experience
The two ladies are amazing, from the get-go they put me and my sister at ease, we have never had to use a care company before and we were unsure of the process or even what to do for my moms best interests, and they helped us and discussed my mom's needs until we all come to the best solution.
The carers are professional and are mindful of my mom's needs and conditions, a lovely group of trustworthy carers.
They have really given me and my family peace of mind, and often an ear to bend which is much needed!

Fantastic service, and team. Highly recommend to all.

The provision of care for my very elderly mother with Vascular Dementia and many mobility problems was excellent. It was provided at very short notice, within 24 hours. The carer was respectful, punctual, considerate, helpful and safe in all she did. I would recommend Bluebird and the service it provides with no concerns.

Overall Experience

Mother in Law, who is profoundly deaf and has been diagnosed with Vascular dementia, has been receiving care from Bluebird for about a year now. Carers come 2 days a week around lunchtime and cook lunch for her. I know she also really enjoys the company and the "chats" with them (it must involve a lot of writing on their part!). She often tells us what news she has of them. Even in the recent difficult circumstances (COVID restrictions), they have provided a really good service.

Review from Lisa P (Daughter of Client) published on 31 July 2020 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

After coming out of the hospital with terminal cancer, my mum and the family had to come to terms with the diagnosis. In addition, previous existing mental health conditions were exacerbated. A care agency was organised, but this did not go well, and they were complaining about my mum and writing things into the notes which did not seem reflective of the situation. Their approach was that we were an annoyance to them, and they gave notice on providing care. The new agency identified was Bluebird care. What a difference in approach from the moment of the first contact. The thing which shines through is that Bluebird does actually care about their clients. The clients are people to them, and they want to support them to be the best they can - they go out of their way to make life better. My mum has gone from cutting herself off from the world; to enjoying eating and gardening again and she looks forwards to the carers visits. She is enjoying living again. Thank you, Bluebird.

Reply from Nicola Witt, Owner at Bluebird Care Dudley, Kidderminster & Malvern

Hello. What a lovely thing to say and it is particularly great that our carers see your mum as someone for whom they actually want to care and as a result, your mum has gone from someone cutting herself off from the world to being someone who is able to enjoy things again.

Nicola Witt

Nicola comes to the Care profession having worked as a Solicitor for over 20 years. In her role as a Solicitor, she was able to see at first hand how the lives of people could be enhanced significantly with the right care provision being made and just as importantly how the wrong care could hold people back.

With Bluebird Care Dudley, Wyre Forest and Malvern Hills, she is able to put into practice what she has seen in her career as a Solicitor. Her time in the law also means that she has experience of running a business and a team of people, to ensure that everyone is working together to achieve the goal of providing excellent care.

Adrian comes to the company having spent over 20 years in the legal profession as a Solicitor.

He is also not afraid of spiders and he is therefore able to fulfil a vital office role; that of being able to go into the cupboard and to get unwanted spiders from the office. He can also handle a Daddy Long-Legs at the right time of the year.

Adrian can also make tea and coffee.
