Job description
At Apollo Home Healthcare, we provide high-quality, person-centred care to individuals in the comfort of their own homes. Every care package is tailored, with a compassionate and skilled team built around each person's needs.
We live by the 6 Cs: Care, Compassion, Competence, Communication, Courage, and Commitment.
We're hiring across multiple locations, so even if this role isn't quite right for you, we'd still encourage you to apply to hear about other opportunities in your area.
The Role
We are looking for compassionate and reliable Healthcare Assistants to support a young man in his 20s within his family home in Bawtry.
You will be part of a 2:1 care team during the day and provide 1:1 support overnight, assisting with his daily routine while promoting comfort, safety, and overall wellbeing.
He thrives on routine and consistency and is non-verbal, communicating through expressions and behaviours. This means a patient, observant, and intuitive approach is essential.
He enjoys sensory-based activities, watching colourful programmes such as Minions, listening to music, and spending time in a calm and reassuring environment.
This is a highly rewarding opportunity to build a positive and trusting relationship while delivering person-centred care in a supportive home setting.
