Description

This page advertises ongoing self-employed opportunities across Dunmore and Stirling, not one specific position. On PrimeCarers you remain self-employed: you set your own rates, choose your clients, and decide your hours and service area. Typical hourly roles sit in the range £18.80–£20 per hour. You pick the work that fits you, whether you want a few daytime calls each week or a regular block of daytime hours.
Who this suits: experienced carers who want more control than agency work often do. You’ll be visiting people at home to support washing and dressing, continence care, simple meal preparation, prompting or administering medication as agreed with the client, and running errands such as shopping or collecting prescriptions. A calm, respectful approach and at least one year of professional care experience are required. If you’re thinking of moving away from block rostering or travel between distant clients, PrimeCarers helps you build a local caseload centred on Dunmore and the towns around it, including Airth, Clackmannan, Alloa, Kincardine, Tullibody and Carron.
- Minimum experience: At least 1 year of professional care experience.
- Checks: An Enhanced DBS check is required; PrimeCarers can help arrange one if you need it.
- Eligibility: Right to work in the UK and verifiable references.
