Dementia Support Carer Jobs in Chudleigh

PrimeCarers is matching experienced, self-employed carers with families in Chudleigh who need patient, routine-focused dementia support at home. If you prefer to support people in familiar surroundings and to help maintain daily rhythms rather than rush through tasks, this role could suit you. You’ll work with people living with dementia — offering companionship, personal care, memory prompts, comfort through routine and calm, and close liaison with families. Right now, 8 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

These are ongoing self-employed opportunities across Chudleigh and nearby towns such as Bovey Tracey, Kingsteignton, Newton Abbot, Teignmouth, Dawlish and Topsham. You set your own rates and choose the clients and hours that fit your life; many carers list a typical range of £18.89–£23 per hour. PrimeCarers finds clients for you and takes care of the admin — contracts, invoicing and payments are handled by the platform, and insurance is included while you work.

What the role involves day-to-day depends on each client’s needs. Typical tasks include supporting morning and evening routines, helping with personal care where required, prompting and administering medication as agreed, preparing meals, encouraging familiar activities, and providing a reassuring, consistent presence. The best matches are calm, patient carers who understand how routine, familiar cues and gentle reassurance help people living with dementia stay settled at home.

Who this suits: experienced carers who want to move away from agency rota pressures, take more control of their time, and build ongoing relationships with clients. You must have at least one year of professional care experience, the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. An Enhanced DBS check is required; PrimeCarers can help arrange one if you need it. You remain self-employed, choose your service area around Chudleigh and Devon, and set the hours that work for you.
