Dementia Carer Jobs in Druids Heath

If you’re experienced in dementia care and prefer to work in the community, supporting people in their own homes around Druids Heath can be deeply rewarding. You’ll help maintain routine, familiar surroundings and meaningful relationships — the small, steady things that make a big difference for someone living with dementia. As a self-employed carer on PrimeCarers you choose your clients, hours and service area while we find the families, handle contracts, invoicing and payments, and provide insurance while you work. Right now, 26 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

Work here is focused on consistent, person-centred support: gentle prompts for daily tasks, companionship, encouraging familiar routines, and helping families to keep loved ones comfortable at home. Many shifts involve building trust through patience, repetition and small cues rather than rushing tasks. If you prefer predictable visits where you can follow a familiar routine and see progress over time, this role in Druids Heath will suit you.

Pay is flexible because carers on PrimeCarers are self-employed and set their own rates within typical ranges. You’ll see roles advertised around £18.50–£20 per hour for hourly care and £145–£160 per day for live-in days, and you can choose what works for you. The platform makes billing simple: PrimeCarers handles contracts, invoicing and payments so you can focus on care.

We’re looking for people with at least one year’s professional care experience, the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. You’ll also need an Enhanced DBS check — PrimeCarers can help you arrange one if you don’t already have it. Applying takes minutes and profiles typically go live within days of verification. Many carers who move from agency work to PrimeCarers value the greater control over hours and the opportunity to build longer term relationships with families across Druids Heath and nearby areas such as Highters Heath, Brandwood End, Warstock, Kings Norton, Yardley Wood and Lifford.
