Job description
At Apollo Home Healthcare, we provide high-quality, person-centred care to people in the comfort of their own homes. Every individual we support has unique needs - we tailor every care package to them, building a compassionate and skilled team around their requirements.
We live and work by the 6 Cs: Care, Compassion, Competence, Communication, Courage, and Commitment - and we're looking for people who share those values.
Meet Our Client
An 18-year-old young man with a big personality and a love for music, particularly pop stars such as Taylor Swift, Katy Perry and Little Mix. Music plays a huge part in his day and he enjoys listening to a variety of songs, but these artists are his firm favourites.
He also loves sensory experiences and enjoys having his lights and other sensory lighting on.
At home, he likes to relax by watching various programmes including Numberjacks, Teletubbies, LazyTown, Bluey and The Little Mermaid.
He thrives on interaction and really enjoys having someone who will talk to him, engage with him and give him their full attention.
We are looking for a caring, confident and reliable individual to provide personal care and clinical support, helping him to get ready before and after school during term time.
Morning shifts start at the family home, where you will carry out personal care and support his daily routines before accompanying to school on the school bus.
You won't be required to remain with him during his school day however, for afternoon shifts, the school bus will collect you from the family home, take you to the school to collect him, and return you both home. You will then continue supporting him either at home or out in the community.
During school holidays, you'll help him enjoy his time by getting out and about in the community and taking part in the activities he loves.
This is a rewarding role for someone who enjoys building meaningful connections, has a calm and positive approach, and wants to make a real difference to a young person's daily life.
Please note: Due to the nature of our vacancies, our clients have the right to request either female or male staff.
Our client has specifically requested female care staff to join their team.
This isn't just a job - it's your opportunity to make a real difference in someone's life."
