Description

Working with people living with dementia in their own homes is rewarding and requires patience, reliability and a gentle, routine-led approach. On PrimeCarers you’ll support clients in Cannock to stay comfortable and familiar in the place they know best — helping with day‑to‑day tasks, creating predictable routines, encouraging memory aids and providing calm companionship.
Right now, 23 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

These are ongoing, self-employed opportunities across Cannock and the wider Staffordshire area. You’ll choose which clients, hours and streets you work in, so you can prioritise continuity of care — something many people living with dementia respond to best. Typical care work ranges are shown as £18.50–£20 per hour depending on the visit type and level of support needed.

Who this suits: experienced carers who value relationship-based dementia support, who prefer working independently rather than through a rota-driven agency. You’ll already have at least a year of professional care experience, verifiable references and the right to work in the UK. You must hold an Enhanced DBS check; PrimeCarers can help you arrange one if needed.

PrimeCarers handles the admin so you can focus on care. We introduce you to local families, take care of contracts, invoicing and payments, and provide insurance cover while you’re working through the platform. You remain self-employed: you set your own rates, accept the clients you want and choose the hours that fit your life. Many carers who leave agency life find they can keep routine-driven, consistent dementia support without the shift churn.

Opportunities are available across Cannock and nearby communities including Hednesford, Penkridge, Burntwood, Pelsall, Brownhills and Rugeley. Roles can be regular daytime visits, evening calls or longer live-in support depending on what carers and families agree. We never advertise a single job here — this page describes ongoing chances to connect with families seeking dementia-focused home support in Cannock and the surrounding parts of Staffordshire.

How to apply: it takes minutes to create a profile. Add your experience, upload checks and references, and we’ll verify details. Profiles typically go live within days of verification. Once live, PrimeCarers will match you with local families who need dementia care in Cannock and nearby towns; you then choose which introductions to accept.
