Description

Live-in care in Falconwood means living in a client’s home and supporting daily routines around the clock, with agreed breaks so you can rest and recharge. These roles suit carers who want to build genuine relationships, work one-to-one and offer continuity of care in a familiar community. Right now, 97 live-in placements are currently open across the wider region.

This is an ongoing platform for self-employed carers who want control. You set your own rates and choose the clients, hours and service area you accept. Many carers on PrimeCarers quote within £145–£160 per day, and you can compare typical rates for hourly care £18.80–£20 per hour or live-in days £145–£160 per day when you create your profile. You could work with families in Falconwood and nearby Blackfen, Welling, Crook Log, East Wickham, Blendon and Lamorbey or travel from elsewhere in the UK for longer live-in placements.

Live-in care is for experienced, adaptable carers who can support personal care, medication prompts, meal preparation, companionship and household routines while living with the client. It often suits people who prefer predictable continuity rather than frequent short shifts. Carers travel from across the country for live-in placements and agree rest breaks and time off with the family from the start.

Minimum requirements to join PrimeCarers:

  • Experience: at least 1 year of professional care experience.
  • Checks: an Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange one).
  • Right to work: the legal right to work in the UK.
  • References: verifiable professional references.

PrimeCarers is designed for carers leaving agency-style work who want more autonomy. We introduce you to families, handle contracts, invoicing and payments, and provide insurance while you work. That means you can focus on caring and let us take care of the administration and billing.

Applying takes minutes and your profile typically goes live within days of verification. Once live, you can review client requests, agree terms directly with families and accept only the roles that suit you.
