Typical work includes support with washing and dressing, continence care, preparing meals, prompting or administering medication, short errands and companionship during daytime visits. Visits are usually hourly or short blocks, and the typical pay sits around £21.30–£30 per hour depending on the care needed and the hours you agree with a family.

PrimeCarers takes care of finding families, drawing up contracts, invoicing and processing payments so you can focus on care.

Carers choose when to accept visits and can cover Barrow in Furness, parts of south Cumbria and nearby towns such as Dalton in Furness, Millom, Ulverston, Broughton in Furness, Grange over Sands and Morecambe.

To join you’ll need at least one year of professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS (we can help arrange this if you don’t have one), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. You’ll also confirm you are self-employed; PrimeCarers supports that working model and provides the admin and insurance cover while you work on our platform.

Applying takes minutes: create a profile, provide your documents and references, and once verified your profile typically goes live within days. Profiles remain active for ongoing, self-employed opportunities rather than single fixed posts, so you’ll see multiple families and visit options to choose from.
