About Bluebird Care (& Bradford South)
We are Bluebird Care (Calderdale & Bradford South), a home care agency working with people across Halifax and the wider Calderdale area. We visit people in their own homes, from short daily calls through to more involved support several times a day, and we plan each round of visits so that people see carers they recognise rather than a different name every morning. The people we support are varied. We care for older people and for adults living with dementia, where a calm and familiar routine makes the difference between a good day and a difficult one. We support adults with a learning disability and autistic adults, people living with mental health conditions, people with a physical disability, and people with sight or hearing loss, where small practical adjustments matter enormously. We also work with younger adults and with people in recovery from alcohol or drug misuse, and we approach that work without judgement. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission was requires improvement. We would rather say so plainly than talk around it. We have taken the findings seriously and the changes we are making are aimed at the things families notice, which is reliable timekeeping, clear records and carers who know a person well enough to spot when something has changed. If you are looking into care in Calderdale, we are glad to answer questions honestly, including the awkward ones.
