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.
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 Clients
We are currently recruiting Healthcare Assistants to support two valued clients in the Stockport area.
Client 1:
We are supporting a male in his 20s who requires 1:1 support on a full time basis during the day. He enjoys sensory activities and interactive experiences, with music being a big part of his daily life; singing nursery rhymes and listening to familiar tunes make him feel happy and relaxed. He enjoys watching TV, DVDs, and using his iPod or iPad for entertainment. Playful interaction makes him happy, and he enjoys fun, engaging moments with his care team.
You'll provide essential, person-centred care, manage his clinical needs, and support him as needed. You'll also offer companionship and encourage his involvement in activities to keep him engaged and fulfilled.
Client 2:
We are also supporting a lady in her 40swho requires 1:1 overnight support (10pm-8am). She enjoys pampering sessions, shopping, watching reality TV and rom-coms, and cheering on her favourite football team, Manchester City.
She is non-verbal and is fully reliant on her care team for personal care and clinical routines during the night. She has a cat, so carers must be comfortable in a pet-friendly home.
Please note: Due to the nature of our vacancies, our clients have the right to request either female or male staff. Both our clients have requested females only to join their care team.
This isn't just a job - it's your opportunity to make a real difference in someone's life.
What You'll Need
Minimum 3 months' care experience
Confident with medication, personal care, moving and handling
Clear communication skills
Pet-friendly for Client 2
What We Offer
Competitive hourly pay with enhancements for nights and weekends
Regular confirmed rotas and flexible scheduling
Reward & recognition programme
Supportive management and 24/7 on-call support
Opportunity to grow within a values-led, national care provider
Our funded training, including clinical skills, comes at no cost to you, though attendance is unpaid.
