About Bluebird Care (Rushcliffe & Melton)

Bluebird Care Rushcliffe and Melton provides care at home for people across Nottinghamshire, working out of Nottingham. We support older people and adults living with dementia, autistic adults and people with a learning disability, people with physical disabilities or sight and hearing loss, and younger adults who need support to get on with their own plans. We think home care stands or falls on two things: turning up when we said we would, and sending someone the person actually gets on with. So we spend time on introductions before care starts, we keep teams small and local, and we tell people in advance when a regular carer is away rather than surprising them at the door. Visits can be a brief call to prompt medication and check all is well, or longer periods of support for personal care, meals, outings and company. Before anyone starts with us they train with us, and they keep training afterwards, particularly around dementia, moving people safely and recognising when someone is becoming unwell. Our office team is contactable rather than ornamental, and we would far rather hear a small concern early than a large one later. Our most recent inspection by the Care Quality Commission rated us good overall. If you are looking into care at home around Rushcliffe or Melton, we are glad to visit, talk things through and set out honestly what we can and cannot do.
