Visiting Carer Jobs in Forfar

PrimeCarers connects experienced, self-employed carers with families across Forfar and the surrounding Angus area. These are ongoing visiting carer opportunities supporting people in their own homes with daytime visits — personal care, meals, medication prompts and errands. You’ll be choosing who you work for and when, rather than taking rostered shifts from an agency. Right now, 2 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

What the role involves: short daytime visits or longer support calls in people’s homes, helping with personal care, preparing meals, supporting medication routines and running small errands. Visits are focused on keeping people comfortable, independent and safe in their own homes. You’ll see a mix of practical tasks and companionship — the balance depends on the clients you choose.

Who this suits: carers with at least a year of professional care experience who want more control over their working day. If you’re used to agency structures but want to pick your own clients, set your own hours and work closer to home in Forfar, this could fit. Many carers join PrimeCarers to move away from fixed rotas without losing the benefits of organised bookings and secure payments.

Pay and flexibility: carers on PrimeCarers are self-employed and set their own rates. Typical rates for visiting care in the area are £19.50–£20 per hour and you choose the clients, hours and service area that suit you. PrimeCarers finds clients, handles contracts, invoicing and payments, and provides insurance while you work.

Requirements to join: you need at least 1 year of professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange one), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. We verify documents quickly so applying takes minutes and profiles typically go live within days of verification.

Where you could work: many carers cover Forfar and nearby towns such as Letham, Kirriemuir, Brechin, Monifieth, Carnoustie and Arbroath. You can limit the distance you travel and build a local patch of clients that fits your life in Angus.

How to get started: create a profile, confirm your experience and checks, then start choosing bookings. There’s no single advertised post here — PrimeCarers advertises ongoing self-employed opportunities and supports you to build the client list you want while taking care of the admin side.
