Description
PrimeCarers connects experienced, self‑employed carers with families in Dingwall who need overnight support. Nights can be waking shifts — hands‑on personal care, medication prompts or repositioning — or sleeping nights where you provide reassurance, monitoring and occasional assistance so families can rest. We work with carers who want to build a reliable evening and overnight roster in Dingwall and nearby communities, including Alness, Fortrose, Inverness, Invergordon, Cromarty and Tain. Right now, 2 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.
As a self‑employed carer on PrimeCarers you set your own terms: you choose clients, hours and the service area you cover. Many carers set rates that reflect their experience and availability; typical rates for this kind of role are £15–£25 per hour. PrimeCarers finds clients, handles contracts, invoicing and payments, and includes insurance while you’re working on a booking. This means you can focus on care without agency-style rota pressures.
Overnight care suits carers who are calm, observant and confident working independently. Common duties include personal care, assistance with transfers, recording observations, supporting sleep routines and following care plans agreed with families. You will often be the first point of contact for relatives and may need to liaise with other professionals when necessary. Nights demand patience and reliability; if you’ve done agency or homecare shifts before, this role is a natural fit.
To join PrimeCarers we ask for at least one year of professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS check (we can help arrange this), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. You remain self‑employed, set your own hourly rate and choose bookings that work for you. We do not list one specific position here; instead we advertise ongoing self‑employed opportunities across Dingwall and the surrounding area.
Applying takes minutes — create a profile, upload your references and DBS, and we typically publish profiles within days of verification. Once live, families can see your profile and request you for nights that suit. If you want to stop agency rotas and build a steadier, more flexible night‑shift offering in Dingwall, this is a practical way to do it.
