At Bluebird Care, we know that great care starts with great people. That’s why we’re on a mission to bring skilled, compassionate Nurses into our growing homecare teams across across Laois & Offaly.

What Makes Bluebird Care Laois & Offaly Different?

While acute settings demand fast-paced, high-pressure care, community nursing at Bluebird Care offers a different rhythm — one that gives you more time, space, and support to focus on each child’s individual needs.

You’ll be helping children and young adults live fuller lives in the comfort and safety of their own homes.

Here’s what sets us apart;

1. Real Relationships, Real Impact

You’ll have the opportunity to work closely with families, often supporting the same child or young person over weeks, months, or even years. That consistency allows you to build trust and deliver truly personalised care.

"It’s the kind of nursing I always wanted to do — where you actually get to know the family, not just the file."

 Full Training and Continuous Support

We understand that many nurses are new to the world of homecare. That’s why we provide comprehensive training tailored to each care package — as well as ongoing mentorship, clinical oversight, and access to CPD. Whether you’re an RCN, RGN, or RNID, we’ll make sure you feel confident and capable.

I was nervous about moving into homecare, but the training was so hands-on and supportive. I felt fully prepared before meeting any family, and I always know there's someone at the end of the phone if I need help."

Better Work-Life Balance

Enjoy flexible scheduling that fits around your life — with full-time, part-time, and night-time roles available. Whether you’re returning from maternity leave, reducing your hospital hours, or simply want more balance, we can help make it work.


Bluebird Care truly understands the importance of balance. The flexible hours mean I can be fully present for my patients without sacrificing time with my family. It’s the best of both worlds — rewarding work and a life that doesn’t feel overwhelming.
