Dementia Support Carer Jobs in Dundonald

Join PrimeCarers to support people living with dementia in their own homes in Dundonald. You’ll help keep days calm and familiar: sticking to routine, using gentle prompts, encouraging activities that make sense to the person, and offering patient companionship so they can stay at home longer and with dignity. Right now, 2 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

This work suits carers who value continuity and relationship-based support. You may already work for an agency but want more control over who you visit and when. On PrimeCarers you are self-employed: you set your own rates, choose your clients, hours and service area, and can focus on dementia support in Dundonald and across Castlereagh and surrounding areas.

Pay and shifts vary because you set your rate and pick the work. Typical rates for this kind of role are £18.80–£20 per hour, with hourly and live-in options shown on each client profile as £18.80–£20 per hour and £145–£164.50 per day. PrimeCarers finds families for you, manages contracts, invoicing and payments, and includes insurance while you work, so you spend more time caring and less time on admin.

Typical support tasks include gentle personal care, medication prompts, meal support, accompaniment to local activities, creating or following simple daily routines, reassurance during episodes of confusion, and keeping familiar objects and photos accessible. You won’t be asked to change care plans alone — families and PrimeCarers help keep things coordinated, and you can accept only the assignments that suit your skills and schedule.

Requirements to join are practical and straightforward:

• At least 1 year of professional care experience, ideally including dementia care
• An Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange one)
• The right to work in the UK and verifiable references

Applying takes minutes. You create a profile, submit your documents and references, and once verified your profile typically goes live within days. Families in Dundonald and nearby areas such as Holywood, Comber, Newtownards, Merville Garden Village, Carryduff and Greenisland use PrimeCarers to find consistent, experienced carers — meaning you can build ongoing relationships rather than one-off calls.

If you want work that values patience, routine and the comfort of home, join PrimeCarers and list yourself for dementia support in Dundonald and Castlereagh. It’s flexible, practical and centred on doing the right thing for people living with dementia.
