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're hiring across multiple locations, so even if this position isn't your perfect match, we'd encourage you to apply today to hear about other opportunities in your area.

Meet Our Client

A wonderful young woman who loves to get out and about She enjoys bowling, theatre trips, pantomimes, cinema outings, and seaside visits. When at home, she keeps busy with arts and crafts or relaxing in front of the TV. This is a fulfilling opportunity to support her both with her daily care needs and her favourite activities.

Our client requires close care due to her complex medical needs and can display challenging behaviours when feeling frustrated. We're looking for someone confident, patient, and resilient who can provide reassurance and calm, and offer positive distractions like her favourite beads or activities. She can find it tricky to settle at night and often only sleeps for a few hours, so she'll need gentle support, regular check-ins, and help with personal care during the night.

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.

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