Description

Work supporting people living with dementia in their own homes across Campbeltown and the surrounding area. This is ongoing, self-employed work focused on gentle, routine-led care that keeps people comfortable and secure in familiar surroundings. You’ll be helping with practical tasks, companionship, personal care where needed and maintaining consistent daily routines to reduce confusion and anxiety.

New care jobs in the area are posted on PrimeCarers throughout the year.

What the role involves: providing patient, predictable support to people with dementia in their own homes in and around Campbeltown. Shifts can be short calls or longer visits, and often centre on maintaining routine, encouraging independence and reassuring people when memory makes things harder.

Who this suits: experienced carers who value continuity of care and prefer working directly with families rather than through an agency. If you’ve got at least a year of professional care experience and want more control over the hours you work and the people you support, this could be a good fit. Many carers who move to PrimeCarers appreciate working locally in Campbeltown and nearby towns including Ballycastle, Saltcoats, Rothesay, Maybole, Troon and Ayr.

Pay & flexibility: carers on PrimeCarers are self-employed, set their own rates and choose their own clients, hours and service area. Typical rates for this kind of role are £15–£25 per hour. PrimeCarers finds clients for you, handles contracts, invoicing and payments, and provides insurance while you work — so you can focus on care, not paperwork.

  • Minimum requirements: at least 1 year of professional care experience; an Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange one); the right to work in the UK; and verifiable references.
  • What we manage: client matching, contracts, invoicing, payments and insurance while you’re working on assignments.
  • What you control: your rates, which clients you accept, the hours you work and your service area within Campbeltown and beyond.

Applying takes minutes and profiles typically go live within days of verification, so you can be visible to local families quickly. We’re advertising ongoing self-employed opportunities across Campbeltown rather than a single role; choose the work that fits your life and the kind of dementia support you do best.

If you want consistent, person-centred dementia work close to home, register with PrimeCarers and start building a local caseload in Campbeltown that suits you and the people you support.
