Although my friend was only in the home for two weeks before he died he was looked after very well indeed. The staff are very efficient but also very kind. He was made very comfortable. The staff were upset at his passing.

We would like to thank the staff for their care and attention in looking after our brother in his final months.

Sarah has been the administrator at Bluebell since September 2012, and has worked in accounts since leaving school. She really enjoys working at Bluebell and the variety of work that being an Administrator entails.
In her spare time, she enjoys reading, gardening and following Derby County football club.

I have been working here at Bluebell Park since 2014. No two days are the same here and I enjoy the challenge of working with the residents and their families. Here at Bluebell, there is a very homely, friendly atmosphere.

I have worked in the Care Industry for over 20 years and know how important it is to maintain a safe environment for the residents and staff in the Care Home.
Normally you will see me walking round the home so please say “Hello”.

My priority is to make sure that the residents know that their homes are well cared for and kept clean and tidy to the highest of standards. I love my role here at Bluebell Park and being part of a team that puts residents first.

Before getting into music therapy, I was a violinist and conductor. Through this career, I had experienced the enormous enrichment that music provides and the idea of working in music therapy had been bubbling in me for some time. However, it was a conversation in a pub which finally spurred me to do it; I was talking to a violinist who plays in an orchestra I conduct. She is a music therapist and asked if I would like to spend a day with her as an assistant. I did this and it is true to say it was a life changing experience. I came straight home, got on the internet and tracked down a course with Nordoff Robbins.I graduated with my Master's degree in 2013 and have been working at Bluebell Park ever since. It wasn’t my first time at the home though, as I spent my placement year working here!
