“I was very skeptical about leaving my old job but I’m so I glad I took the leap and applied for my position at Apollo. Best thing I ever did, I get to spend more time with my children and watch them grow. Everyone is so friendly and easy to approach if you have a problem.”

About This Role

Our client is a vibrant young woman in her late teens who lives at home with her family. She loves sharing her passions and interests with her care team, values socialising with friends, enjoys outings, and makes the most of every opportunity life brings.

She is creative, with a passion for fashion, beaty, social media (especially TikTok), and art, as well as enjoying concerts, theatre, and musicals.

As a healthcare Assistant, you will support her wellbeing, engage in her interests, and help her live life to the fullest. A genuine interest in her hobbies and a positive, enthusiastic approach is highly desirable.

You will support her both at college and at home, assisting with learning, personal development, social activities, daily care needs, and encouraging independence.

At night, you will provide attentive overnight care at home, meeting personal and clinical needs. This included offering reassurance, comfort, and support if she wakes during the night, ensuring she always feels safe and secure.

This is a rewarding opportunity for a compassionate, engaging Healthcare Assistant who is passionate about supporting a young person to thrive.

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.

Clinical Experience

Previous experience supporting children or young people with complex healthcare needs is desirable. Where required, specialist clinical training will be provided by our highly skilled, in house nursing team.

Essential Requirements

To be considered for this role, applicants must:

  • Have a minimum of 3 months' paid experience working in a professional care setting within the UK.
  • Have the right to work in the UK.
  • Be committed to delivering safe, compassionate and child-centred care.
  • Be willing to complete client-specific, clinical training where required.
  • Confident with medication, personal care, mobbing and handling.
  • Pet friendly – our client does have a pet dog.

We do not hold a sponsorship licence and are therefore unable to consider applicants requiring sponsorship.

About You

We're looking for someone who is:

  • Caring, kind and compassionate
  • Patient and reliable
  • Friendly and engaging
  • Passionate about supporting children and young people
  • Able to build positive relations with children and their families
  • A strong communicator
  • A positive team player
