Description
Join PrimeCarers to offer dementia support at home in Driffield and the surrounding East Riding of Yorkshire. You’ll support people to stay in familiar surroundings, working with patience, gentle routine and small practical adaptations so each day feels safe and known. Right now, 5 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.
These ongoing self‑employed opportunities are for carers who want to keep dementia support person‑centred and steady — not rushing from one short call to the next. You’ll be helping with companionship, meal support, prompts for personal care, activity and routine, and supporting families with clear, compassionate communication. Working at home with someone living with dementia often means building predictable rhythms, noticing small changes and keeping the environment reassuring.
This kind of role suits experienced care professionals who value continuity and relationship‑based support. If you’re thinking of moving away from agency shifts, PrimeCarers lets you choose the clients, hours and service area that fit your life. You set your own rates and availability — typical roles fall around £19–£19.60 per hour — and you can work locally in and around Driffield, including Beswick, Bridlington, Beverley, Hornsea, Market Weighton and Pocklington.
