When we started Bluebird Care Essex West we knew from the begining that we were operating in an industry which is often portrayed in a negative light. Much of the mainstream press and media broadcast stories which show Care assistants being treated badly; Poor work conditions, hours, lack of training and support, as well as poor pay. Care assistants are too often undervalued and poorly rewarded for the most valuable work that they do.
Therefore when building the foundations for the Bluebird Care Essex West team we had a key strategic goal "To only recruit valuable individuals who like us want to be in the industry because they have a real passion for care".
To achieve our strategic goal we ensure all those we recruit adhere to our vision;
That being a care assistant is not "just a job" for our staff we ensure it is a vocation. Training is not just "compulsory paperwork" for our care team it is time to sit and chat with the recruitment supervisor, whilst learning more about their job role. Rota's are not just "the customers they go to" for our staff it is the people they visit to show love, care and compassion.
We work so hard to ensure we do not lose sight of what makes us the fantastic company we are, our passion is caring for people both our customers and our staff. Because of this we only attract the best and only choose the best people, who share our vision, values and passion to care to join our team. We support all individuals who work as part of our team to achieve true self actualization.
