Dementia Support Carer Jobs in Billingham

This role suits carers who value patience, routine and continuity of care — helping with personal care, companionship, medication prompts and maintaining familiar daily rhythms so clients can stay at home for longer.

Right now, 7 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

PrimeCarers connects you directly with families in Billingham and nearby areas such as Stockton on Tees, Fairfield, Thornaby on Tees, Ingleby Barwick, Eston and Eaglescliffe. You remain self-employed: you choose your clients, hours and service area and you set your own rates. We handle the practical admin — matching you with families, managing contracts, invoicing and payments, and providing insurance cover while you work.

Typical hours are flexible and can include short visits, longer daytime support or live-in days. Pay varies by arrangement; typical rates are £18.50–£20 per hour and you decide what you charge within that range when you create your profile. This role is ideal for experienced carers who want the rewarding relationship-based work of home dementia care without agency shift-roster constraints. Many carers tell us they prefer the chance to build routines, keep the same faces around the person they support and work at a pace that suits them and their client.

The basics to join PrimeCarers: at least one year of paid professional care experience; an Enhanced DBS check (we can help arrange this); the right to work in the UK; and verifiable references. We verify your documents quickly so your profile can go live within days of verification. Applying takes minutes — create a profile, upload documents and choose your availability.

If you’re based in Billingham or nearby and are ready to move away from agency rota work, PrimeCarers helps you keep the care focused on the person, not the shift pattern. We support carers with straightforward contracts, timely payments and a simple way to agree rates and hours direct with families. Many carers who move to PrimeCarers stay working locally, including into Hartlepool and surrounding towns, keeping continuity for the people they support.

To apply, create your profile, add your experience and references, and choose the kind of dementia support you provide. Once verified, families can see your profile and contact you directly. If you want consistent, respectful home-based dementia care work in Billingham while staying in control of your working life, PrimeCarers is built for you.
