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 seeking a dedicated and compassionate Healthcare Assistant to support a lady in her early 70s living in Walkden. She enjoys watching TV, spending time with her family, visiting the town centre, and taking pride in her appearance, particularly when putting on her makeup as part of her daily routine.

As a key member of her care team, you will provide high-quality personal care, administer medication, and manage her clinical needs. You will also support her evening and night-time routines, as well as help her stay active and engaged in the community by assisting with outings and activities she enjoys.

This position requires someone who is caring, reliable, and committed to maintaining her comfort, safety, and overall wellbeing.

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.”

• Confident with medication, personal care, moving and handling
• Clear communication skills
