Dementia Support Carer Jobs in Frome

Work supporting people living with dementia in their own homes across Frome, allowing them to stay settled in familiar rooms and routines. You’ll help keep days predictable, calm and purposeful — small, patient actions that make a big difference to someone’s quality of life. Right now, 8 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

These are ongoing self-employed opportunities rather than a single role. Typical roles pay between £19–£24 per hour. Short visits, companionship calls and personal care visits commonly sit within £19–£24 per hour, while live-in days are often within £145–£160 per day. Tasks focus on consistency: supporting morning and evening routines, prompting medication, reassuring through changes in memory, encouraging familiar activities and working closely with family members to follow known preferences.

This work suits carers with experience and a calm, measured approach. If you’ve spent at least a year in professional care and understand the importance of routine, validation and patience when supporting someone with dementia, you’ll find this role rewarding. Many experienced carers who want more control than agency work value the ability to choose who they support and when.

Requirements

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