Bluebird Care celebrate immediate availability

“It’s a brave new world... I’m still adjusting to operating without a waiting list,” muses Tim Rowland Jones, Director of Bluebird Care Bristol. As the owner of a CQC Outstanding home and live-in care company, he is accustomed to running at full capacity. “Bristolians are discerning –they won’t accept just any care company –so we’ve always held an orderly waiting list for our services. Two out of three new customers find us via word of mouth, recommended by a friend, neighbour, GP, or hospital discharge team.”

For the first time in a decade, the Bristol Bluebirds have immediate availability to start care thanks to herculean recruitment and training efforts.

Bristol Health Hub: Is it time that you had a health MOT?

Bristol Health Hub specialises in women and men’s health checks and is run by a group of nurse consultants who are passionate about health and wellbeing.

Life can be extremely busy and stressful, leading us to neglect our physical, emotional and mental health. Health checks can detect problems early, which can lead to earlier treatment options. They can also help identify any risk factors for chronic diseases such as type 2 diabetes, raised blood pressure or heart disease and encourage lifestyle changes that can prevent them. If you have an existing health condition, health checks can help you better manage it by providing personalised lifestyle and medication advice. Just think, you can stop worrying about your health and continue your busy lifestyle knowing that you have had that important health check.

Are you feeling deaf at times? Did you know that using AirPods, ear defenders and headphones can lead to impacted ear wax? The Health Hub has the gold-standard Tympa equipment, which not only removes ear wax but can also take photographs and videos of your ear canal. If the team see any problems, they can refer you immediately to a specialist who can provide further help and guidance.
