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 committed and compassionate Healthcare Assistants to support a gentleman in his 50s in his own home on a 2:1 basis. He is an active and sociable individual who enjoys spending time in the community and engaging in meaningful activities.

At home, he likes to relax with Netflix boxsets, with a particular love for Grey’s Anatomy, and music is a big part of his life, bringing him joy and relaxation. Evenings are spent following his night-time routine, which includes personal care and getting ready for bed, followed by winding down with television or music. He wakes naturally in the morning to begin his day.

During the night, he may require assistance and alerts staff via his landline through Alexa. Staff are expected to carry out regular checks and document accordingly.

We are looking for carers who are reliable, patient, and enthusiastic about making a positive difference in his life. This is a fantastic opportunity for those who enjoy providing personalised, high-quality support in a home setting.

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.”

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