About Bluebird Care (South)
We provide care in people's own homes in Cramlington and across south Northumberland. Our aim is to make staying at home workable, with support that turns up when it should and is delivered by carers the household knows. Most of the people we visit are older. We help with washing and dressing, medication, meals, shopping and the practical jobs around the house that have become awkward. We support people living with dementia, where continuity of carer and a steady routine can decide how a whole day goes. We also work with adults who have a learning disability, autistic adults, people with a physical disability and younger adults needing help to live independently. We put thought into matching. Somebody coming into your home every morning needs to be a person you are glad to see, so we introduce carers properly and we listen if a match is not working. Everything begins with a home visit and an unhurried conversation about what is wanted. The plan we write from that is in plain language, agreed with the person and reviewed as circumstances move on. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. Please ring if you would like to talk through the options.
