“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.” – Current HCA

About This Role

We are looking for a caring and enthusiastic Healthcare Assistant to support a wonderful 6-year-old boy at home and at school.

He is a happy, sociable child who enjoys interaction, conversation and being sung to. He also loves school and enjoys the routine of his day.

You will start your shift at the family home, supporting him to get ready before travelling with him to school using provided transport. At school, you will support his engagement, interaction and participation, alongside his clinical and care needs. You will then travel back home with him and continue supporting him until the end of your shift.

The role includes personal care and clinical interventions, with full training provided where required, including specialist respiratory care.

If you are warm, patient and passionate about supporting children, we would love to hear from you.

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

Our client’s family has requested female candidates to join their team.

“This isn't just a job – it’s your opportunity to make a real difference in someone’s life.”

Clinical Experience

Previous experience supporting children with complex healthcare needs is desirable.

Where required, specialist clinical training will be provided by our highly skilled, in-house nursing team.

• Have a minimum of 3 months' paid experience working in a professional care setting within the UK.

• Be comfortable working in a school environment and supporting the child throughout the school day.
• Be flexible and available to pick up ad hoc night shifts during school holidays and non-term time.
