Many carers set their own rates within a typical range of £18.50–£20 per hour, and you can offer hourly or live‑in support depending on what suits you and the families you work with.
Dementia care at home often includes: structured daily routines, supporting personal care with dignity, prompting and companionship, meal routines, medication prompting, light domestic tasks and working with families to maintain familiar triggers and memory cues. You’ll be expected to work sensitively around a person’s life story and routines, using patience and clear, calm communication to reduce anxiety and promote comfort.
This work is ideal for experienced carers who are tired of agency rotas and want more control over their time and relationships with clients. If you prefer continuity rather than constantly changing shifts, value building rapport and enjoy working within the community in Birches Green and the wider West Midlands, PrimeCarers is designed for you.
