“I was very sceptical 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.” – Current HCA
About This Role
We are looking for a caring and compassionate Healthcare Assistant to support a young boy with autism and epilepsy who is non-verbal.
