To win the award, Bluebird Care demonstrated the company’s excellent support to employees, strong company culture, and leadership in innovation in care services.



Roderick Miller, Director at Bluebird Care (Leeds North) commented:
 
I am very pleased that Bluebird Care has been honoured by the franchise sector in this way. The huge advantage of being part of a strong network lies in the sharing of best practice between individual care providers, in the pursuit of gold standard care in our local area.

With the support and guidance of colleagues in the network, we have been able to embrace innovative new technologies that underpin and enhance the care we deliver. This year, Leeds North have fully implemented the PASS  system, a communications tool that allows for a “real time” double check of every care activity, on each visit. Each member of the care team has access to the latest information on individual care plans, which flags up changes to medication requirements or other care activities instantaneously. Quite simply it ensures safer, better care.
Duncan Berry, COO at Bluebird Care commented:
 
We are absolutely delighted to have received this recognition from the franchise industry. It really endorses the strength of the brand, and level of support that is provided to help differentiate our network of franchisees. There is a huge amount of collaborative effort that goes into delivering in excess of 21000 home care visits each day and we feel very honoured that the Bluebird Care business has been recognised in this way.
