Below are just a few of the terrific comments received from both employees and customers;
 
Bluebird has consistently provided well-above standard care. Carers are kind, considerate and professional, plus Bluebird management have invited clients to annual social events free of additional cost where we have been well hosted and entertained. Above and beyond [the] norm.
I was particularly impressed when a different care worker was allocated. On each occasion, the area supervisor came as well to introduce the newcomer. This demonstrated to me great attention to detail.
I am extremely happy and pleased to be part of [this] family. I feel that our customers are at the centre of our everyday work. Our services are focused on their needs, always taking into account their wishes, preferences and feelings. As a member of staff I feel very appreciated.
