Description
Work with people living with dementia in Aylsham, helping them remain safe and comfortable at home by keeping to familiar routines, offering patient support and encouraging meaningful moments. Many families want a carer who values calm, predictable days and the small, consistent gestures that make life easier at home. Right now, 4 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.
As a dementia support carer through PrimeCarers you’ll deliver personalised home care: companionship, prompting with medication and meals, support with personal care where needed, gentle encouragement with activities and maintaining routines that reduce confusion and distress. This role suits experienced carers who prefer one-to-one time, slow-paced visits and building trust with people over weeks and months. You’ll often be working with older adults who benefit from predictable patterns and familiar faces across Aylsham and surrounding areas such as North Walsham, Reepham, Wroxham, Rackheath, Cromer and Sheringham in Norfolk.
Carers on PrimeCarers are self-employed: you set your own rates and choose your clients, hours and service area. Typical rates for this kind of work are £19–£22.50 per hour, with common ranges shown for hourly or live-in care: £19–£22.50 per hour and £145–£160 per day. PrimeCarers finds clients, handles contracts, invoicing and payments, and provides insurance while you work — so you can focus on care, not admin.
Who this is for:
- At least 1 year of professional care experience supporting adults with complex needs or dementia.
- An Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange one if you need it).
- The right to work in the UK and two verifiable references.
We’re looking for carers who value independence for the person they support, who can work with empathy and patience, and who enjoy creating calm daily routines. If you’re thinking of moving away from agency rosters, PrimeCarers can be a simpler way to control your work life while keeping the meaningful aspects of hands-on dementia care in Aylsham.
Applying takes minutes. Create a profile, add your documents and references, and once verified your profile typically goes live within days — after that you can review client requests and accept work that fits your schedule.
