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 a sociable little boy who lives at home with his family in Skelmersdale. He enjoys watching Bing on the TV, listening to music and nursery rhymes, engaging in creative play, and spending time with other children, especially at nursery.

Overnight care is required to support his mobility and personal care needs, as well as any clinical care he may need.

He is likely to be settled in bed and asleep upon the arrival of his care team, and your role is to ensure his safety and comfort and help him settle back to sleep if he wakes.

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

“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
• Pet Friendly
