Our Bury & Bolton Team

Mobishir Rawthore

Director

Mobi New

Bluebird Care Bury & Bolton homecare  is led by Mobishir Rawthore. Mobi started delivering homecare in Bury & Bolton to help support customers in the area to receive homecare and support while remaining in the comfort and familiarity of their own homes. Delivering the highest quality of homecare  in Bury & Bolton is Mobi's absolute goal and the team would be delighted to hear from anyone who is seeking homecare for themselves or for a loved one, or would simply like to talk to someone about the services we provide.

I decided to move into the care sector as I want to make a real difference to the lives of the people living in the community. Bluebird Care Bury & Bolton was the obvious choice for my business as I believe passionately in our mantra ‘a good old fashioned service'. When considering a care provider for my own loved ones, I would expect nothing short of the level of care which I would provide myself. Here at Bluebird Care Bury & Bolton we aim to deliver exactly that.

So how do I plan to ensure this? In the first instance by only recruiting carers and office staff who share the same ethos as Bluebird Care Bury & Bolton, and then providing excellent training and support. Staff retention, enabling continuity of care, is key for any care provider. This can only be achieved by a team, working in an excellent environment, where every member is encouraged to continually strive to be the very best at what they do.

I also bring with me a great deal of experience in the support, encouragement and management of a team.  The training and development of all of our staff is very important to us and I will endeavour to encourage the team to be continuously looking for ways in which they can develop their expertise.

I believe this will meet and exceed the expectations for all of our customers and their families who live in our community.

Michelle Milner 

Lead Care Coordinator 

Michelle

I started my career with Bluebird Care Bury & Bolton 12 years ago, and from the very beginning, I knew that care was something I wanted to build my career around.

I spent my first eight years working as a Care Assistant in the community, supporting customers in their own homes and gaining invaluable hands-on experience across a wide range of care needs. I then took the next step in my career and joined the office team as a Care Coordinator. Moving from delivering care in the community to coordinating services was a new challenge, but it has been one of the best decisions I have ever made.

Having worked directly with customers for so many years, I bring a wealth of practical knowledge and experience to my role. I understand first-hand the challenges our Care Assistants can face, as well as how important continuity, reliability and high-quality care are to our customers and their families.

In my role as Care Coordinator, I am responsible for ensuring our customers receive the right support from the right members of our team, carefully coordinating schedules while considering individual customer needs, preferences and continuity of care. I have built fantastic relationships with both our customers and Care Assistants and always try to be approachable, supportive and available to help whenever needed.

I am also an experienced trainer and support the ongoing development of our care team by delivering training in Moving & Handling, Medication, Dementia and Basic Life Support. I really enjoy sharing the knowledge and experience I have gained throughout my career and helping our Care Assistants develop their confidence and skills.

After 12 years with Bluebird Care Bury & Bolton, I am incredibly experienced in both the practical and operational sides of home care. The part of my role I enjoy most is working closely with our customers and staff, supporting the team and helping to make sure our customers receive the high-quality, compassionate and person-centred care they deserve.

I support new members of the team throughout their onboarding journey, helping to ensure they feel welcomed, prepared and confident as they begin their career with us.

Throughout my time with Bluebird Care, my role has continued to grow and develop, and I have taken on responsibilities across many different areas of the service. This has given me a wealth of experience and a broad understanding of how the business operates and how each part of the team works together to provide the best possible support to our customers.
