Dementia Support Carer Jobs in Falkland

Join PrimeCarers as a self-employed dementia support carer working in and around Falkland. You’ll help people living with dementia remain safe, calm and at home by keeping routines, offering patient companionship and supporting day‑to‑day tasks in familiar surroundings. Right now, 3 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

This work is about consistent, small acts that matter: prompting medication, gently encouraging meals and hydration, supporting morning and evening routines, using memory cues and distraction when behaviour changes, and working closely with families to keep home life steady. It suits carers who prefer to build trusting relationships, who value patience over speed, and who want to support continuity of care for people who know and recognise them. Many carers join from local agency roles because they want more control over who they support and how their time is organised.

All carers on PrimeCarers are self‑employed. You set your own rates and choose your clients, hours and service area. Typical rates for this type of role are £18.80–£20 per hour depending on needs and experience. PrimeCarers finds clients for you and handles contracts, invoicing and payments, with insurance included while you work. That means you can focus on compassionate dementia care, not paperwork.

Requirements to join

• At least 1 year of professional care experience supporting adults
• An Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange this)
• The right to work in the UK
• Verifiable references from recent care roles

PrimeCarers supports you with verification and practical onboarding, and can advise on DBS processing if you need it. You’ll also have access to briefings about dementia best practice and guidance on working safely in people’s homes across Falkland and nearby areas including Auchtermuchty, Collydean, Ladybank, Pitcoudie, Glenrothes and Markinch.

Applying takes minutes and profiles typically go live within days of verification.
