What the work looks like: visits are usually short daytime calls providing practical help and companionship — assistance with washing, dressing, continence care where needed, cooking or reheating meals, supporting medication routines and running small errands. You’ll build relationships with the same clients when you want continuity, or take single visits if that suits your diary. Many carers find this kind of hourly care a good step away from agency rotas while keeping hands‑on care at the centre of their work in Bovey Tracey.
Who this suits: experienced care assistants with at least one year of professional care experience who want more control over when, where and with whom they work. Ideal if you’re considering leaving agency work, want to set your own pace, or already provide care and want more choice in your local patch around Bovey Tracey and nearby towns such as Chudleigh, Kingsteignton, Newton Abbot, Moretonhampstead, Ashburton and Teignmouth.
Pay and flexibility: carers on PrimeCarers are self‑employed and set their own rates. Typical care ranges are shown as £19–£25 per hour for hourly care and £148–£162.50 per day for live‑in day rates. PrimeCarers makes finding clients straightforward, and you only accept the visits that fit your schedule.
Checks and support: to join you’ll need at least one year of professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange one), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. PrimeCarers handles client introductions, contracts, invoicing and payments, and includes insurance while you work, so you can focus on care rather than paperwork.
How to apply: creating a profile takes minutes. Upload your references and DBS, choose your service area and availability, and PrimeCarers will verify your details — profiles typically go live within days of verification. If you’re already working in Devon and want a more flexible, self‑directed way to deliver hourly home care in Bovey Tracey, this could be the change you’re looking for.
