Our Supervisors & Clinical Nurse Manager

Caiti Lynch - Care Supervisor

After finishing secondary school, I completed health care courses in Pre nursing, Community & Health and Pre paramedics. My friends and family always thought I would do something with animals as I am a big animal lover however, while doing these courses, they led me into doing work experience in nursing homes and day centres and I knew I would like a career working with older people. In April of 2019 I started working as a health care assistant with Bluebird Care and it helped me practice my skills I developed during my college courses. Throughout my time as a healthcare assistant, Bluebird Care have offered extra support and knowledge by doing monthly policies and procedures and online courses that would give the carers up to date information about best practice and I have learned so much from working here!

Sandra Kane - Care Supervisor

Sandra originally started working for Bluebird Care as a Care Assistant in 2018. Together with her experience gained working in the field and many years experience with the order of Malta, Sandra has since July 2020 been a huge success as our Care Supervisor for the Dun Laoghaire and North Wicklow areas.

Christine Byrne - Clinical Nurse Manager

I graduated in 2012 with a BSc Intellectual Disability Nursing. I loved every bit of my training and gained valuable experiencing caring for people with intellectual disabilities, particularly those who presented with reactive behaviours and those with severe/profound intellectual disabilities and high dependency needs. I have had the opportunity to take part in further training since completing my degree, including Epilepsy management with temple street hospital, certified MAPA instructor training and Safeguarding vulnerable adults instructor training. I began working in a nursing home in 2014 and it is then that my love for caring for older people developed. I went on to stay working in long term care until 2019, initially starting as a Staff Nurse and working my way up to Assistant Director of Nursing. I made the move to homecare in 2019 when I started my career with Bluebird Care DSE and Wicklow. It has been a challenge but I love working with our customers and staff to ensure that the customers receive the care they need to continue living at home independently.
