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.

We’re hiring across multiple locations, so even if this position isn’t your perfect match, we’d encourage you to apply today to hear about other opportunities in your area.

Meet Our Client

We are supporting a creative lady in her mid‑30s living in March, Cambridgeshire. She lives independently with the support of her family and dedicated care team. We’re looking for caring and reliable carers to join her 1:1 team for day or night shifts.

Her condition can vary day to day — some days she’s more independent, while others she needs a little extra support. You’ll assist with personal care, medication, light household tasks, and day‑to‑day living to help her feel comfortable & supported.

She shares her home with three friendly dogs, so being pet‑friendly is a must! She enjoys art and attends a weekly class to express her creativity and aid her social interaction. She’s also learning Italian and is looking forward to returning to her classes after the summer break.

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 females only to join their care team.

“This isn’t just a job – it’s your opportunity to make a real difference in someone’s life.”

What You’ll Need

• Minimum 3 months’ care experience
• Confident with medication, personal care, moving and handling
• Clear communication skills
• Drivers required for days (aged 25+ due to insurance)
• Pet‑friendly (3 dogs in the home)

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.
