Description
Join PrimeCarers to support people living with dementia at home across Eaglescliffe. You’ll be helping clients keep familiar routines and surroundings, offering patient, person‑centred care that values consistency, small comforts and clear communication. Work might include companionship, supporting daily routines, prompting medication, gentle personal care and working with families to maintain structure and calm. Right now, 4 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.
These opportunities suit experienced carers who prefer continuity and the chance to build trusting relationships rather than short, reactive shifts. Many carers who move from agency work to self‑employment tell us they value being able to plan visits that follow a person’s routine and to work with the same client over weeks and months. You’ll be based in Eaglescliffe and can also choose to work across the wider area including Yarm, Ingleby Barwick, Thornaby on Tees, Fairfield, Stockton on Tees and Billingham and around Stockton-on-Tees.
Pay and flexibility: PrimeCarers carers are self‑employed and set their own rates — typical roles sit in the range £18.50–£20 per hour. You choose the clients you accept, the hours you work and the service area you cover. PrimeCarers finds clients for you and handles contracts, invoicing and payments, with insurance included while you work.
Who this is for:
- Experienced: at least 1 year of professional care experience supporting adults with care needs, ideally with dementia.
- Checked and ready: an Enhanced DBS is required — PrimeCarers can help arrange one — plus the right to work in the UK and verifiable references.
- Person‑centred: you prioritise patience, routine and dignity, and you communicate clearly with families.
How it works: create a profile, include your experience and references, and choose the areas and clients you’re interested in around Eaglescliffe.
