We don't like to blow our own trumpet, so we'll let our customers and staff do it instead!

1)      “Please rest assured that what you do brings a great deal of comfort and relief to many families, every day”

“I wanted to say a huge thank you to all of you who cared for my mother, over the six weeks she was at home. We cannot speak highly enough of the kindness and compassion you showed to all three of us, at what was such a difficult time. You provided not only care for a vulnerable elderly lady but you also provided amazing support to both of us, even me when I was at my grumpiest! I wish that the support and care you provide could be recognised and valued more highly by society at large and in particular by the decision makers who fund care and support for those in need. Please rest assured that what you do brings a great deal of comfort and relief to many families, every day. We absolutely could not have cared for my mother, enabling her to spend her last days in her home, if it had not been for all of you.”

 

2)      “The Bluebird team made a very hard time easier.”

Having the Bluebird Team visit my granddad during the last few weeks of his life was truly a blessing. The supervisors and care team were so compassionate and caring, they were respectful of his wishes and also the needs of my grandmother and family. The Bluebird team made a very hard time easier.

3)      “Singing to my dad, holding his hand and telling of jokes as he slipped in and out was just a few of those touches that will forever be in my heart.”

Thank you to team Oswestry for the fantastic care they gave my dad in his final weeks. Anyone can do the mundane bits and bobs but not everyone can give the little touches like the staff did. Singing to my dad, holding his hand and telling of jokes as he slipped in and out was just a few of those touches that will forever be in my heart. I can’t thank you enough for being there for not just dad but the family.

4)      “Bluebird Care has been so supportive of everything I go through and I can't thank them enough”

As the team know I've been working for bluebird since 2013, (this is my 3rd time back working for them since I started) but this time I feel so much more settled and this is the longest time I'm worked for the company, and as a reward I've got a lovely certificate!!
This company has been so supportive of everything I go through and I can't thank them enough for the 3rd opportunity to work for them again!! Love you guys loads! I always find it hard with anxiety etc but there is always someone for me to talk to they are brilliant! 

5)      “With all the training but inside the office and out shadowing you learn everyday life skills as well as how to fully help customers”

I couldn't wish for a better employer they were so understanding and a joy to work for. Seeing customers was amazing and you are fully trained before you go out and meet those customers. There isn't really a typical day at work as each day is different you go to your first customer and then you follow your rota. You can see the same customer 4 times in the same day and each visit is totally different from the last time you saw them as you can't expect everything to run like clockwork because it doesn't but that's what make working with bluebird so interesting because you don't want every day to be the same. With all the training but inside the office and out shadowing you learn everyday life skills as well as how to fully help customers such as simple things as bathing someone, cooking skills, medication and all sorts. It’s a very rewarding place to work and would recommend them to anyone who was interested in working in the care industry.
