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 cheerful and engaging young girl who lives at home with her family and their friendly Labrador. She loves singing along to her favourite songs, playing with stacking and building toys, and watching her favourite TV shows — especially CBeebies, Baby Shark, and Mr Tumble. She thrives on interaction and play, and you’ll play an important role in encouraging her to engage and have fun.

This is a 1:1 role where you’ll be supporting her with all aspects of her care, including tracheostomy care, while also offering reassurance and recognising when she may be unwell.

Shifts are available during the day or night, giving you the chance to support her daily routines, clinical needs, and play activities, helping to make each day enjoyable and full of interaction. During night shifts, you’ll assist with her overnight routine, including feeds, nappy changes, and nebulisers when needed.

Please note: Due to the nature of our vacancies, our clients have the right to request either female or male staff.

Our clients family have specified a preference for female only carers.

“This isn't just a job – it’s your opportunity to make a real difference in someone’s life.”

What You’ll Need

• 3 months’ care experience
• Confident with medication, personal care, moving and handling
• Clear communication skills

What We Offer

• Competitive hourly pay with enhancements for nights and weekends
• Regular confirmed rotas and flexible scheduling
• Reward & recognition programme
• Supportive management and 24/7 on-call support
• Opportunity to grow within a values-led, national care provider

Our funded training, including clinical skills, comes at no cost to you, though attendance is unpaid.
