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 seeking kind and compassionate Healthcare Assistants to support a delightful 3-year-old girl in her family home.

She lives with her mum and brother and, although non-verbal, communicates beautifully through her expressions. With a joyful, playful personality, she loves cuddles, reassurance, sensory play, music, Disney films, and calm activities such as walks and pampering.

In this rewarding role, you will support her clinical care needs, follow her daily routine, and engage her in the activities she enjoys both at home and during nursery. You will also assist with her evening bedtime routine and provide overnight care, offering observation and reassurance if she wakes.

We are looking for someone patient, attentive, and nurturing, someone who can help her feel safe, happy, and supported every day. This is a truly meaningful role where you can make a real difference in a child’s life.

Please note, candidates must have proven hands-on skills and experience in children’s tracheostomy care, including performing routine tube changes

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

What You’ll Need

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