Dementia Carer Jobs in Banchory

If you have experience supporting people with dementia and want to work in or around Banchory, this could be the change you’re looking for. On PrimeCarers you work self‑employed, choose the clients and hours that suit you, and set your own rates — typical pay is £18.80–£20 per hour. There is 1 family currently looking for care in the wider area.

Your role will focus on supporting people to stay at home where they feel safest: keeping to familiar routines, offering calm companionship, prompting medication and meals, helping with personal care when needed, and noticing changes in mood or behaviour so families and clinicians can be informed. Much of the work is about patience, consistency and small, meaningful interactions rather than high volume tasks. Many local households in Banchory and nearby communities value carers who understand dementia and can maintain a steady, reassuring presence.

We’re looking for carers who prefer the continuity of home‑based dementia support and want control over how they work. You choose which clients to accept, which hours to do and the service area you cover — ideal if you currently travel between Westhill, Red Cloak, Stonehaven, Kemnay, Kintore and Portlethen or if you want to focus on Banchory itself.

PrimeCarers finds you clients and handles contracts, invoicing and payments so you can concentrate on care. Insurance is included while you’re working on a PrimeCarers placement. You remain self‑employed and set your own fees, with full control over rotas and availability.

• Requirements to join: at least 1 year of professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange one), the right to work in the UK, and verifiable references.
• How long it takes: applying takes minutes and profiles typically go live within days of verification.
• Type of opportunities: ongoing self‑employed roles supporting clients with dementia at home across Banchory and Aberdeenshire.

Moving away from agency shift patterns? Many carers choose PrimeCarers because it reduces back‑office admin while keeping flexibility. You’ll still manage your own diary and client relationships, but we take care of the paperwork so you can focus on quality, consistent care that helps people remain in familiar surroundings.

To apply, create a profile, upload your documents and references, and complete the short verification steps. Once approved your profile starts to connect with families looking for dementia‑aware carers in Banchory and the surrounding area. If you have questions about the process or the Enhanced DBS, we’ll support you through it.
