“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

We are looking for caring and dedicated Healthcare Assistants to support a young woman in her 20s who lives at home with her family in Wigan.

As a Healthcare Assistant, you will provide person-centred care, supporting with personal care, medication administration, moving and handling, and clinical interventions.

You will also encourage her to enjoy the activities she loves, including hydrotherapy, listening to music, watching The Chase and Tipping Point, accessing the local community, and spending time around animals.

You will occasionally support her during respite stays, ensuring her routines are maintained and her care needs continue to be met with consistency and compassion.

Please note: Due to the nature of our vacancies, our clients have the right to request either female or male staff.

Our client has requested female care staff to join their team.

Clinical Experience

Previous experience supporting adults 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.
  • Pet friendly - dog in property

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
  • Reliable and professional
  • An excellent communicator
  • Committed to delivering person-centered care
  • A positive team player
