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

You will be caring for a lady in her 70s, who enjoys the comfort of her home and spending time in her garden, especially in good weather.

Her garden is a place she enjoys and finds relaxing.

Her care is delivered on a 1:1 basis and tailored to her individual needs which includes PEG feeding, medication, and personal care.

She is unable to communicate verbally and does so using a whiteboard.

Carers will need to be patient and attentive when supporting her communication, allowing her time to express her needs.

She has a close and supportive family, with two daughters who visit regularly and are involved in her care.

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

Our client has requested female carers only

“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
