About Bluebird Care (North)
We are the Bluebird Care office covering north Cornwall, based in Camelford, and we provide care to people in their own homes. We support older people, people living with dementia, autistic adults and adults with a learning disability, people with a physical disability, people with a visual or hearing impairment and younger adults. Working across a rural area shapes how we plan. Visits take travelling time that has to be built in honestly rather than squeezed, because a carer arriving late and leaving early helps nobody, and in scattered communities the person who comes through the door may be the only visitor that day. We plan rotas with that in mind and we keep the same carers going to the same households, since familiarity is what makes this work, particularly for people living with dementia. Every package begins with a proper conversation covering what somebody still wants to do for themselves, what makes a day difficult and who to contact when things change. Our carers are trained for the conditions they will actually meet. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is outstanding, and the measure we watch more closely is what the people we visit tell us.
