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.

Your role will include managing her complex clinical requirements and assisting with personal care and medication administration, while helping her enjoy her interests and maintain her quality of life.

Drivers are preferred due to the location, although applicants with reliable transport will also be considered.

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.
