As Registered Care Manager I am responsible for ensuring we are compliant with all regulatory requirements.

Caring for the elderly is my passion. Having cared for so many wonderful people over the years has been a privilege, and I am so very proud to be a carer at heart.

I’m excited about the future, to build our Live-in Care services and to work closely with our customers and our care team.

Evette Jones
Field Care Supervisor

Evette began her career as a Care Assistant with Bluebird Care in 2020.  This was her first job within the care sector, and she instantly loved it! In 2022, Evette’s efforts did not go unnoticed as her Manager nominated her for the Staffordshire Dignity in Care Awards.  Thrilled by this recognition, Evette was named a finalist and was highly commended for her exceptional service.

Over time, Evette has undertaken various training to develop her knowledge and skills, allowing her to progress to the role of Care Mentor, and in 2024 Evette was promoted to the role of Field Care Supervisor, which involves meeting new customers and completing their initial care assessments.

Seeing different people every day and making a positive difference to them gave me a real sense of achievement, as a Care Assistant. Working in the role of Field Care Supervisor now, I get to hear people’s life stories and what is important to them, which I am then able to include in their care and support plan to ensure they get a truly personalised service from our care team.
