Live-in Carer Jobs in Broughton

Live-in care in Broughton offers continuity, companionship and the chance to work closely with a family in their own home. These ongoing self-employed opportunities suit experienced carers who want to choose their clients, hours and service area while enjoying the stability of a live-in placement. Right now, 37 live-in placements are currently open across the wider region.

Live-in roles typically involve supporting daily routines, personal care, medication prompts, meal preparation and practical companionship across waking hours, with agreed breaks and time off. Carers travel from across the country for live-in placements, and many find the deeper relationship with one household more rewarding than shift-to-shift agency work. You can expect variety: some households in Broughton need day-to-day support, others want overnight companionship or morning and evening help.

Pay is set by you — carers on PrimeCarers are self-employed and set their own rates. You’ll see assignments that typically sit within £145–£160 per day depending on the needs and level of support. PrimeCarers handles the contracts, invoicing and payments for every placement, and insurance is included while you work.

This type of work suits carers who already have at least one year of professional care experience, reliable references and the legal right to work in the UK. An Enhanced DBS is required to join PrimeCarers; if you don’t already have one we can help arrange it as part of verification. You’ll also need verifiable references so families can feel confident inviting you into their homes.

Many carers who move from agency work appreciate being able to set their own hours, pick clients that fit their strengths and travel to placements in and around Broughton and nearby towns such as Preston, Penwortham, Longridge, Kirkham, Garstang and Wesham. Applying takes minutes — you create a profile, upload documents and submit references. Profiles typically go live within days of verification, so you could be matched with local families in Lancashire quickly.

If you’re ready to take control of how, where and with whom you work, PrimeCarers makes the transition straightforward: you remain self-employed, choose who you work with, and we take care of the administrative side so you can focus on care. Start by creating a profile and we’ll guide you through verification and matching.
