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

A 17-year-old with a love for music, especially pop stars like Taylor Swift, Katy Perry, and Little Mix. He finds joy in the glow of sensory lights and watches programmes like the Little Mermaid and Bluey.

We require a caring and confident individual to provide personal care and clinical support to help him get ready before or after school, with transport provided via the school bus. During school holidays, you’ll accompany him into the community, engaging in the activities he enjoys most—whether it’s music, lights, or simply spending quality time together.

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.
