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 supporting a young man in his late teens with clinical and complex care needs. He is a calm, happy individual who lives at home with his family in Blackburn.

He enjoys watching cartoons, listening to music, and engaging in sensory play. He particularly enjoys soft textures, such as his favourite blanket and fluffy toys, which provide him with comfort and enjoyment. He requires full assistance with personal care, mobility, and clinical interventions. Overnight, you will need to be highly attentive to his needs, providing regular monitoring to ensure his safety, comfort, and wellbeing throughout the night.

He will usually be settled in bed before the care team arrives. He may occasionally wake during the night for a short period of play before returning to sleep.

If you are dedicated to making a meaningful difference and enjoy working within a nurturing, family-home environment, 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 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.”

What You’ll Need

  • 3 months’ care experience
  • Confident with medication, personal care, moving and handling
  • Clear communication skills

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.
