Description
Support people living with dementia to stay safely and comfortably at home in Ealing. This work is about patience, predictable routines, familiar surroundings and being the calm, consistent face in someone’s day-to-day life. You’ll focus on companionship, guiding daily routines, personal care where appropriate and keeping the home familiar and reassuring for the person you support.
Right now, 212 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.
This page advertises ongoing self‑employed opportunities across Ealing and the surrounding parts of Greater London — not one specific role. It suits carers who’ve built practical experience and want more control than traditional agency work gives. You’ll often be chosen for longer visits and continuity of care, which is especially important for people with dementia: regular routines, familiar faces and small, thoughtful approaches make a real difference.
What the work typically involves
- Supporting familiar daily routines and activity prompts to reduce confusion.
- Providing personal care and dignity-focused support where needed, and prompting medication or appointments when asked to.
- Light household tasks, meal preparation, companionship and purposeful activity.
- Working patiently with family members to maintain continuity and a calm environment.
