“I was very sceptical about leaving my old job but I’m so I glad I took the leap and applied for my position at Apollo. Best thing I ever did, I get to spend more time with my children and watch them grow. Everyone is so friendly and easy to approach if you have a problem.”

About This Role

We’re looking for compassionate and reliable Healthcare Assistants to join our dedicated care team, providing person-centred support to a gentleman in his 50s with complex clinical needs in his family home.

He enjoys spending time in the community, making memories with his loved ones, and relaxing with audiobooks and the radio. As part of his care team, you’ll play an important role in supporting him to enjoy the things he loves, while promoting his independence, comfort and quality of life.

You’ll provide high-quality care across both day and night shifts, supporting with personal care, daily living and clinical needs. You’ll also assist with community outings and meaningful activities, helping him stay engaged with the people and activities that are important to him.

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 care staff to join their team.
