About Bluebird Care (New Forest)
Bluebird Care in the New Forest supports people in their own homes in Lymington and the surrounding parts of Hampshire. We visit older adults and younger adults, including people living with dementia, people with a learning disability, autistic people, people living with a physical disability, and people with sight or hearing loss. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is outstanding. We are glad of it and we treat it as something to keep earning rather than something settled. What sits behind it is unglamorous. Turning up when we said we would. Sending people who are familiar and properly briefed. Building visits around the person's day rather than the convenience of the rota. Saying so when something has gone wrong instead of hoping nobody noticed. Support can include personal care, prompting or administering medication, preparing meals, laundry and housework, shopping, and getting out to appointments, clubs or study. For people living with dementia we protect consistency above all, in who comes, when they come, and the order things are done. Where somebody communicates differently, or where sensory loss shapes how a visit should go, we work that out before the first call rather than afterwards. If you are weighing up care at home for yourself or for a relative, please get in touch and we will talk it through with you honestly.
