On PrimeCarers you work as a self-employed carer: you set your own rates, choose your clients, hours and service area, and can focus on hourly home care in and around Doune. Typical rates for this kind of work are £18.80–£19.20 per hour. You’ll be visiting people in their own homes across Doune, sometimes in neighbouring communities such as Dunblane, Bridge of Allan, Callander, Menstrie, Tullibody and Alva, and occasionally across Stirling for daytime support.
What the role involves: daytime visits helping people with personal care, getting dressed, washing, meal support and preparation, prompting medication, light domestic tasks and running errands like picking up shopping or prescriptions. Calls are generally short and practical — ideal if you want variety and autonomy rather than long shifts.
PrimeCarers handles the admin so you can concentrate on care. We find clients, arrange contracts, take care of invoicing and payments, and provide insurance while you’re working. You remain self-employed and in control of the hours you accept.
Requirements to join are straightforward: at least 1 year of professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS check (we can help arrange one), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. PrimeCarers will guide you through verification and documentation checks.
How it fits you: this is a good fit if you’re an experienced carer thinking about leaving agency rotas, or if you already work independently and want more straightforward admin support. Many carers choose PrimeCarers to keep the freedom of self-employment while having access to a steady stream of local clients in Doune and nearby towns.
