Premium Home Care in Burslem & Tunstall

Home care in the heart of northern Stoke-on-Trent

Burslem and Tunstall are proud communities with deep roots. The Mother Town and its neighbour are places where people have lived their whole lives — and when care is needed, most people want to stay right where they are. With the right support, they can.

We provide home care across Burslem, Tunstall, Smallthorne, Bradeley, Chell, Packmoor, Goldenhill, Sandyford, Norton, Sneyd Green, and the surrounding areas. Whether your loved one looks forward to a morning at the market, enjoys a walk through Burslem Park, or values the simple comfort of their own armchair and their own routine, our carers are there to help — not to take over.

At Bluebird Care, premium means care that's done properly. Carers who are carefully matched to your loved one. Visits that are never rushed. Pricing that's completely upfront. And a local team who know your family and actually answer when you call.

Our care services in Burslem and Tunstall

Visiting home care — Regular visits from a familiar carer your loved one knows and trusts. Support with personal care, medication, meals, companionship, housekeeping, and getting out and about locally. Every visit is given proper time — we don't cut corners.

Live-in care — A dedicated carer lives in your loved one's home, providing continuous one-to-one support around the clock. It's a real alternative to a care home — one that preserves independence, routine, and familiar surroundings. For couples who both need care, it's often the most practical and cost-effective option.

Respite care — Professional short-term cover so family carers can take a proper break. Same standard of care as our ongoing clients receive — planned or at short notice.

Night care — Waking or sleeping overnight support for those who need active care, medication management, or reassurance through the night.

Companionship care — Real human connection for people living alone. A chat, a walk, a trip to the shops, help with correspondence — simple things that make a genuine difference to wellbeing and quality of life.

Specialist care at home in Burslem and Tunstall

Our carers bring specialist training to support people with complex conditions at home:

Dementia and Alzheimer's disease — As proud partners of the Alzheimer's Society, we provide specialist dementia care with consistent, familiar carers who understand the condition and adapt support as needs change.

Parkinson's disease — Supporting medication timing, mobility, tremor management, and the daily fluctuations that make knowledgeable care essential.

Stroke recovery — Helping people regain independence at home after discharge from Royal Stoke University Hospital, working alongside local rehab teams.

Other complex conditions — Including multiple sclerosis, motor neurone disease, acquired brain injuries, learning disabilities, and other long-term conditions.

Palliative and end-of-life care — Compassionate care at home, working alongside Macmillan nurses, the Douglas Macmillan Hospice, and local palliative teams to ensure comfort and dignity.

How much does home care in Burslem and Tunstall cost?

We're upfront about pricing. After a free home assessment, you'll receive a clear, itemised quote — no hidden fees, no surprises. The average new Bluebird Care customer receives around six visits per week, with average weekly costs starting from under £260.

Live-in care is often comparable to or less than residential care home fees — with the benefit of one-to-one attention in your own home. Stoke-on-Trent City Council funding may be available, and we can help you through the assessment process.
