Live-in Care Assistant Jobs in Haltwhistle

If you have experience in professional care and want to work flexibly in Northumberland, live-in care assistant roles in Haltwhistle could be a great fit. Live-in care means staying in a client’s home to support their daily routines around the clock, with agreed breaks. You’ll be providing companionship and personal care, helping clients maintain independence in familiar surroundings. Carers travel from across the country for live-in placements here, making it a unique opportunity to support families in Haltwhistle and the surrounding area.

As a self-employed carer using PrimeCarers, you set your own rates and choose the clients and hours that suit you. Typical pay for live-in care roles ranges within £145–£160 per day per day, and for hourly care, it’s £15–£25 per hour. You decide how much you want to earn and when you work. PrimeCarers connects you directly with families and manages contracts, invoicing and payments, including insurance while you work.

To join, you need at least six months of professional care experience within the last two years. You must have an Enhanced DBS check on the Update Service, which PrimeCarers can help arrange and monitor. You also need the right to work in the UK, shown with a passport or share code, an NI number, and a verified email address. The final step is a recorded online interview with 14 questions that takes about 45 minutes. PrimeCarers verifies your identity, right to work and DBS before you start.
