Bluebird Care started as a small family business in 2004, and today we are proud to be one of the largest providers of home care services across the UK. But what makes us different?

Here at Bluebird Care Mid & West Cornwall we’re committed to keeping people in the comfort of their own home. Our Live-In care aim is to keep people independent in their own homes for as long as possible, so we take care of everyday tasks around our customers’ homes all the way through to complex care needs. We appreciate that every customer is different, and this is why every day will be different.

We were awarded ‘Outstanding' by CQC/Care Inspectorate and for that reason, we pride ourselves on selecting the very best team. If you are passionate about providing the very best care, then this role could be the role for you.
