About Bluebird Care and South Lakeland

We are Bluebird Care covering Lancaster and South Lakeland, supporting people in their own homes across the area. The people we visit include older people and younger adults, people living with dementia, adults with a learning disability and autistic adults, people with a physical disability or a sensory impairment, and people managing a mental health condition. Continuity is where we put most of our planning effort. Sending whoever is nearest is easier to arrange and produces a procession of strangers arriving at the most personal moments of somebody's day. Building a small regular team around each person takes more work, and it means the person at the door knows the household, knows where things are kept and knows what the person is normally like. Covering a partly rural area also means being straight with families about the times we can genuinely commit to. A call promised at an hour we cannot keep is worse than no promise at all. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. If you are arranging care at home locally, please get in touch and we will come out and talk it over.
