Description
Work supporting people living with dementia at home in Brecon, helping them keep routine, familiar surroundings and dignity. These roles suit carers who bring patience, observational skills and the confidence to build dependable daily routines rather than task‑led visiting. You’ll be working with people who benefit from consistency — often the same faces, places and rhythms each week.
There is 1 family currently looking for care in the wider area.The day-to-day can include companionship, supporting familiar mealtimes and bedtime routines, prompting with personal care, helping with gentle activity and liaising with family to keep plans consistent. This is not about rushing tasks: it’s steady, attentive support that helps people stay safely in their homes.
PrimeCarers connects you to families across Brecon and surrounding areas of Powys, but you remain self-employed and set your own terms. Carers choose their own clients, hours and service area and set their own rates. PrimeCarers finds clients and handles contracts, invoicing and payments; insurance is included while you work. Typical pay ranges are shown on the platform as £18.50–£22.50 per hour, with more detailed hourly and live‑in ranges such as £18.50–£22.50 per hour and £145–£160 per day available in your profile.
This type of role is right for you if you have at least a year of professional care experience, value continuity for the people you support, and want more control than agency shifts usually allow. You’ll often support people for regular slots so you can build relationships and a calm routine that really helps.
Requirements to join are straightforward:
- At least 1 year of professional care experience.
- An Enhanced DBS check — PrimeCarers can help arrange this if needed.
- The right to work in the UK and verifiable references.
Applying takes minutes and your profile typically goes live within days of verification. PrimeCarers will introduce you to suitable families; you decide which introductions to accept. You can find work across Brecon and nearby towns such as Llangors, Talgarth, Tafarnaubach, Crickhowell, Tredegar and Builth Wells as well as elsewhere in Powys.
