Description
Overnight care in Bentham means providing waking or sleeping nights supporting a client in their own home so families can rest. You’ll be a familiar, trusted presence — helping with personal care, comfort checks, medication prompts and companionship during the night. Right now, 6 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.
This work suits experienced carers who want control over their working life in Bentham and the surrounding area of North Yorkshire. Many carers move away from agency rotas because they prefer picking the clients they support and the hours they work. On PrimeCarers you remain self-employed, set your own rate and choose shifts that fit your life. Typical rates for overnight care are in the region of £19–£24 per hour depending on the client and the arrangement.
We find you clients so you can focus on care. PrimeCarers handles client introductions, contracts, invoicing and payments, and provides insurance while you work. You decide your service area and can accept night duties only in Bentham or extend to nearby towns such as Wennington, Kirkby Lonsdale, Settle, Carnforth, Lancaster and Milnthorpe if you wish. That flexibility helps you balance other commitments or combine nights with daytime work.
To join you’ll need at least one year of professional care experience, the right to work in the UK, an Enhanced DBS check (we can help arrange this) and verifiable references. We don’t invent shifts or promise outcomes; we present ongoing self-employed opportunities and put you in touch with families seeking overnight support. Applying takes minutes and once we’ve verified your documents your profile typically goes live within days.
Overnight roles vary: some clients need a waking carer for active support through the night, others need a sleeping carer who stays in the home and responds when required. You’ll agree the duties and handover directly with each family so the arrangement fits your skills and boundaries. If you’re used to agency life but want greater clarity, safer paperwork and direct relationships with families in Bentham, this approach can work well.
