About us

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

We are caring for an 11-year-old girl who lives at home. She is a creative and playful young person with a big personality and a naturally smiley, happy nature. She enjoys engaging with activities and sharing positive interactions with those supporting her.

We are looking for a compassionate and dedicated Healthcare Assistant to join her care team and provide ad hoc 1:1 support within her home. This is a rewarding role where you will step in as required to support her access to meaningful activities, daily routines, and to promote her safety, comfort, and overall wellbeing.

Your responsibilities will include providing personal care, supporting safe positioning, assisting with moving and handling, and responding to any clinical needs as required. You will also be actively involved in engaging her through play-based and sensory activities, helping to create a positive, nurturing, and enjoyable environment during each visit.

This is a fantastic opportunity for someone who is patient, caring, and enthusiastic, and who can quickly build a trusting and supportive relationship while making a genuine difference in her life on a flexible, ad hoc basis.

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."
