In January 2011, Blue Sapphire Care opened its doors and started supporting people in the local community to continue living in their own homes, established by 3 local ladies with many years of experience in the home care industry.
We are passionate about providing a quality service that delivers person centred care to those that need it.
Our intention is to remain small in order that you do not become just another service user.
We will provide a service that you are proud to use, and that we are proud to provide.
The service user is always our number one priority.
Continuity, understanding, communication and reliability are very important factors in creating a successful partnership between Blue Sapphire Care Ltd and the service user.
We are a small team of dedicated people who are passionate about providing the best possible outcomes for anyone who chooses to use our service.
