Live-in Care Assistant Jobs in Cookstown

Live-in care in Cookstown means living with a client in their home and supporting daily routines around the clock with agreed breaks. Many carers travel from across the country for live-in placements that suit their lifestyle and strengths, providing companionship, personal care and practical support. PrimeCarers connects experienced self‑employed carers with families across Cookstown and the wider County Tyrone area.

Right now, 2 live-in placements are currently open across the wider region.

As a self‑employed carer you set your own rates and choose which clients, hours and service area to accept. Typical pay falls within £145–£170 per day, with common hourly and daily ranges shown as £15–£25 per hour and £145–£170 per day. That flexibility helps if you want to prioritise longer live‑in placements or shorter stays close to home. Many carers who leave agency work find they regain control over when and where they work while still getting steady, meaningful placements around Cookstown and nearby towns like Coalisland, Dungannon, Magherafelt, Randalstown, Portadown and Craigavon.

Who this suits — you’ll do best if you already have at least one year’s professional care experience, can work respectfully in someone’s home and want to build trusting relationships. Live‑in care requires sensitivity, routine‑setting and the stamina for a responsible, round‑the‑clock role with agreed breaks.

• Minimum experience: 1 year of professional care experience.
• Checks: Enhanced DBS — PrimeCarers can help arrange this if you need it.
• Right to work: You must have the legal right to work in the UK.
• References: Verifiable references are required.
