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 compassionate and experienced Healthcare Assistants to provide dedicated day and night support for a gentleman in his 50s living at home with his family.

This role is ideal for someone calm, patient, and reliable, with a person-centred approach to care. You will support a gentleman living with a spinal cord injury, assisting with clinical and personal care needs including repositioning, respiratory support, and ongoing monitoring to ensure his safety, comfort, and wellbeing.

Day shifts may also include supporting him to access the community and enjoy meaningful activities. He enjoys a relaxed home environment, has a passion for music and superhero films, and values spending time with his family. There are also cats in the home, so applicants must be comfortable around pets.

This is a rewarding opportunity to make a genuine difference by supporting him to maintain comfort, independence, and quality of life within his own home.

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.
