Covid-19 Bluebird Care's approach to the COVID-19

Fully prepared to continue high quality care for our customers and support our carers - 1 min read

As you will be aware from national news, the number of cases of coronavirus in the UK is growing.

At Bluebird Care we are taking the potential impacts of coronavirus very seriously, and as an organisation we are taking the necessary precautions to protect both our customers and our workforce.

As well as maintaining our strict policy guidelines on hygiene and infection control, we are also putting contingencies in place in the case that COVID-19 does lead to staff shortages. Currently, we are not affected by staff shortages due to COVID-19.  If staff shortages result we will be operating a stream lined service. Upon implementing this you will receive further communication on how this could affect you from our Registered Care Manager. 

Currently none of our customers have been diagnosed with or showing sypmtoms of COVID-10.  Further, if any of our customers show symptoms of Covid-19, or if they have been in physical contact with someone whom has been has been diagnosed with the virus – we will follow guidance from the NHS and Public Health England.
