Why Bluebird Private Home Care?
Bluebird Care was founded in 2004 with a mission to bring care to those in our society who need it most, without expecting them to leave the comfort and familiarity of their own homes. This enriches Bluebird Care with a different type of care model to typical residential care homes – care that offers flexibility in help at home and personal care, and allows people to maintain independence and dignity.
What Is Private Home Care?
Private home care means that your loved ones can have help at home and be cared for by highly qualified care experts without having to leave their own homes. You can have flexible, day-based private home care, or a full-time live-in carer to help those with complex needs.
Respite care at home is also provided by Bluebird Care, enabling existing family and friend carers to have a physical and mental rest from caring, whilst knowing that their loved ones are safe at home with trusted, trained carers. Having help at home ensures your loved ones are safely looked after.
Is Private Home Care for Complex Needs Available?
Since 2024, Bluebird Care have been a proud partner of the Alzheimer's Society, caring for those with dementia and Alzheimer's Disease. We care for those with disabilities, as well as those who suffer from Arthritis, Huntington’s Disease, Motor Neurone Disease, Multiple Sclerosis, and Parkinson's Disease. Bluebird Care also accommodate those with diabetes, injuries and other debilitating physical conditions.

What Does A Private Home Carer Do?
Private Home Care Experts provide help at home with 1-2-1 support, assisting with everyday chores such as shopping, medication, cooking, laundry, hygiene, socialising and exercise, as well as providing companionship, emotional wellbeing and mental stimulation – all from the comfort of home, with no need for a residential care home placement.
You can also get 24-hour care as part of private home care. To find out more about this, please explore our 24-hour live-in care service.
Is Private Home Care Better Than A Care Home?
Every individual is different, so there is no straight answer to this question, and there are some very high-quality residential care homes. But, not only does 24-hour care and private home care allow your loved one to continue their normal life and maintain relationships, but getting help at home, enabling you to stay at home, has been proven to delay the onset of age-related diseases, such as dementia.
With private home care, you don’t have to uproot your life, share communal areas, or compete for care attention from often overworked staff. Furthermore, if you have a furry companion, you can stay at home with your pets, you’re still free to follow your usual routines, and you are less likely to catch an illness or an infection.
Aside from the physical benefits of continuing to live at home, the comfort and familiarity of your surroundings work miracles for people's emotional well-being and mental health.
How Can I Get Started With Private Home Care?
Planning care can be a daunting and overwhelming task. A great place to start is using The Good Care Guide, a free booklet which will help you plan future care and help at home for you or your loved one. However, it’s likelier that you’ll wish to speak to someone who can answer your questions and guide you to the next steps of the process. If you’d like to discuss living the life you want for yourself or your loved one, and the personalised private care plan you desire, get in touch with us today.
