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 kind and thoughtful gentleman who truly values spending quality time with his family. He has a wonderful sense of humour, a very patient personality, and is incredibly selfless, often thinking of others before himself. He brings warmth and positivity to those around him and is a pleasure to support.

He enjoys following football and horse racing, and in the evenings, he likes to relax and unwind with a good film. He also gains great enjoyment and benefit from sessions in the hydrotherapy pool, which form an important and meaningful part of his routine.

During day shifts you will be providing 2:1 care, supporting him with his daily needs while ensuring he feels comfortable, safe, and well supported. Your role will involve assisting with manual handling, providing personal care, administering medication, and supporting with any clinical needs as required.

Alongside his care needs, a key part of the role is helping him continue to enjoy the activities that mean the most to him. You will support him with visiting the hydrotherapy pool and spending time at his holiday cottage, helping him maintain a fulfilling and enjoyable lifestyle.

This is a truly rewarding opportunity to support someone with a kind heart who greatly values the care, companionship, and support provided by his team.

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.”

What You’ll Need

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