Join Apollo Home Healthcare

We are seeking compassionate and reliable Healthcare Assistants to join the team supporting a friendly teenage girl in her family home in Darlington.

We are looking for dedicated individuals with excellent attention to detail who are committed to promoting her safety, comfort, wellbeing, and quality of life. She is home-schooled, enjoys taking part in a variety of activities throughout the day, and loves spending time outdoors when the weather allows.

Alongside providing her clinical care, you will play an important role in supporting her to enjoy these meaningful experiences and make the most of each day.

As part of this role, you will support our client with a range of complex clinical interventions, as well as providing personal care and mobility support. You will also support her learning, play, and daily activities, helping to create a positive and engaging environment.

This is a specialist role, and, due to the complexity of her medical needs, you will receive comprehensive training within the family home. Working closely with her family and established care team, you will help deliver safe, high-quality, person-centred care that enables her to thrive at home.
