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 looking for a caring and engaging team to support a 10-year-old boy in Nottingham within his home and school environment.

He is a friendly and sociable young boy who enjoys spending time with his family and familiar carers. In his free time, he enjoys arts and crafts, playing with cars, reading, watching YouTube and playing on his PlayStation.

He benefits from carers who take an active interest in his hobbies and are happy to get involved in his activities and social play. Patience, consistency and building trust are important, as he may sometimes need gentle encouragement to engage.

This is a lovely opportunity for Healthcare Assistants who enjoy working with children and providing positive, person-centred support.

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 are happy to accept both male and female staff to join their team.

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

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.
