Join Apollo Care Blackpool, rated Good by CQC with Outstanding for Caring

Care Work Done Properly

At Apollo Care Blackpool, we believe care should be personal, consistent, and rewarding for both our clients and our carers.

We're not interested in rushing people through visits or sending carers to unfamiliar clients without support. We do things differently, and that's why our carers stay with us.

Why Join Apollo Care Blackpool?

  • You'll be introduced to every client before providing care
No walking into a stranger's home on your first shift. You'll meet and get to know clients before working independently.
  • You'll have regular, consistent clients
Build meaningful relationships with the people you support instead of seeing different faces every day.
  • You'll have real support when you need it
Our responsive office team is always available to help. You're never left to manage difficult situations alone.
  • You'll have time to care properly
We create realistic schedules that allow you to focus on delivering quality care, not simply rushing from visit to visit.

What Does a Typical Day Look Like?

As a Care Assistant, you'll support people to remain independent in their own homes by helping with:

  • Personal care

  • Medication support

  • Meal preparation

  • Companionship and social interaction

  • Light household tasks

  • Supporting daily routines and independence
Most importantly, you'll help people live safely, comfortably, and confidently in the place they love most: their own home.

What We're Looking For

We're looking for caring, compassionate people who genuinely want to make a difference.

You don't need years of experience. We can teach skills.

What matters most is that you:

  • Care about people

  • Communicate well

  • Are reliable and trustworthy

  • Take pride in delivering excellent care

  • Want to build meaningful relationships with clients
Previous experience in care is welcome but not essential.

What You'll Receive

  • £14\.25 to £15\.00 per hour

  • Paid travel time between visits

  • Ongoing paid training and development

  • Career progression opportunities

  • Employee Assistance Programme (EAP)

  • Supportive and approachable management team

  • Consistent clients and regular work

  • A friendly team that genuinely values your contribution
What Our Carers Tell Us

  • Being rushed between visits

  • Seeing different clients every day

  • Struggling to get support when they needed it
At Apollo Care Blackpool, we focus on building lasting relationships, supporting our staff, and delivering care the right way.
