Description
PrimeCarers connects experienced, self-employed carers with families in East Wemyss and nearby areas. These ongoing opportunities are for hourly home care — daytime visits helping people in their own homes with personal care, meals, medication prompts and light errands. On PrimeCarers you set your own rate, choose which clients you work with, and control your hours and service area while the platform handles client-finding, contracts, invoicing and payments.
Right now, 5 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.
Day-to-day you might help with personal care such as washing and dressing, supporting with meals and hydration, prompting or administering medication as instructed, companionship, and running essential errands. Visits are typically hourly and aimed at keeping people independent in their own homes across East Wemyss and the surrounding parts of Fife, including Buckhaven, Methil, Balcurvie, Dysart, Leven and Levenmouth.
- Type of work: Short daytime visits and hourly home care focused on personal support, practical tasks and emotional presence.
- Who this suits: Carers with at least one year’s professional experience who want more control than traditional agency shifts.
- Flexibility: Choose the clients, times and areas you want to work in — you’re self-employed and in charge of your diary.
Typical rates are £18.80–£20 per hour and you set the rate that works for you when you create your profile. PrimeCarers includes insurance while you are working through the platform, and we handle the paperwork so you can focus on care.
To join you need a minimum of one year’s professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS check (we can help arrange this), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. We verify profiles quickly: applying takes minutes and profiles typically go live within days of verification.
