Live-in Care: Case Study 2
Live-in care is a popular alternative to residential care where a care assistant stays with a customer in their own home. We truly believe that our job is to support the families and friends of our customers who cannot always be there for their loved ones, and we can do this through our live-in care service.
Below is a case study of one of our live-in care customers that discusses why they chose Bluebird Care, and what kind of care they receive.
The Customer – William
William was already a customer of Bluebird Care receiving hourly care with a different care package, and chose Bluebird Care as his care provider as he heard great things about Bluebird Care online!
William has been a customer for over 8 years and decided to switch to Live-In care after discovering the benefits.
Through the Live-In care service, William receives help with cleaning, food preparation and walking from his Live-In carer expert.
William thinks that our Live-In care service is very good! He likes that Live-In care allows him to have independence, and he enjoys that he is able to remain in his own home.
The Family Member – Ben (William's Son)
Ben discovered the option for Live-In care through discussions with William's care supervisor.
When Ben was looking for what would be best for his father, he wanted to be able to trust the care provider, and he trusts Bluebird Care.
Ben also thinks the Live-In care service is very good, as he has the peace of mind and confidence that his dad is ok when they are not around. Ben and his family treat the Live-In caree as part of the family, so there were no issues when the carer moved in.
The care expert - Emily
Emily is Williams Live-In care expert and was interested in working in Live-In care as she likes caring and found an interest in giving support 24/7 to those who need it.
Emily chose to work for Bluebird Care as she saw it as a good opportunity to work in the care sector.
As part of Emily's role, she supports William to stay in his own home, takes him out on occasion, helps prepare food and keeps his home clean.
She thinks Live-In care is a great option for many customers, as most will be more comfortable in receiving care when they are in their own home.
