Description

Work as a live-in care assistant in Alport Town and support someone in their own home with daily routines, personal care and companionship. Live-in care means you will live with the client in their house, supporting daily routines around the clock with agreed breaks; many carers travel from across the country for live-in placements. Right now, 85 live-in placements are currently open across the wider region.

This kind of role suits experienced carers who want continuity of care and deeper relationships with clients rather than short shifts. In Alport Town you could be helping with morning and evening routines, meal support, medication prompts, mobility assistance and companionship — while being on hand overnight if needed. Live-in placements often involve predictable, steady arrangements that fit carers who prefer a home-based setting to community shift work.

You are self-employed on PrimeCarers: you set your own rates, choose your clients, hours and service area, and accept only the placements that fit you. Typical earning indicators appear as £145–£160 per day and more detailed ranges are shown for hourly or live-in day work where relevant: £18.80–£21.90 per hour / £145–£160 per day. PrimeCarers finds you clients, handles contracts, invoicing and payments, and includes the insurance cover you need while you work.

Requirements to join are straightforward: at least one year of professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange this), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. If you already live in or near Alport Town, or commute from surrounding areas such as Gratton, Bakewell, Darley Dale, Matlock, Wirksworth and Clay Cross, your profile will show families looking for local live-in support. Derbyshire carers and those willing to travel are both welcomed.

Getting started takes minutes. Create a profile, upload or book assistance with an Enhanced DBS and references, and once verified your profile typically goes live within days. You remain self-employed at all times and choose which introductions to accept. PrimeCarers manages client matching, contracts and payments so you can focus on care, not paperwork.

We’re advertising ongoing self-employed opportunities rather than one specific post. If you’re an experienced carer thinking about leaving agency shift work and want more control and longer placements in Alport Town, this is designed for you. Apply in minutes and start seeing suitable introductions in and around Alport Town — many carers from farther afield also travel for live-in posts if the match is right.
