Work typically involves helping with personal care, prompting medication, supporting mealtimes, keeping to meaningful routines and offering calm company during good days and bad. People with dementia benefit from patience, steady pacing and small, reliable rituals — skills many experienced carers already have from agency or community work. You’ll be matched with families who want care at home so clients can remain in familiar surroundings across Haxby, with visits often within easy reach of York and other towns such as Easingwold, Thornton Hill, Tadcaster, Norton on Derwent, Pocklington and Malton.

As a PrimeCarers self-employed carer you set your own rate (many carers choose within £18.80–£22.70 per hour) and decide which clients, hours and parts of Haxby you’ll cover. PrimeCarers finds clients for you and handles contracts, invoicing and payments, with insurance included while you work. That means less time on paperwork and more on the care itself. You can offer regular hourly visits or live-in support depending on what you prefer and what the family needs.

Who this suits: experienced carers who value continuity, respect for people with dementia and the flexibility to build a work pattern that fits life in Haxby. It’s a good fit if you want to move away from rota-driven agency work but keep professional support for bookings and administration.

Requirements to join are straightforward: 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. You’ll need to show your experience supporting people with dementia or similar long-term needs.

Applying takes minutes and profiles typically go live within days of verification. Once you’re active you can review introductions and choose which families to accept. PrimeCarers will handle client contracts, invoicing and payments so you can focus on care with the reassurance of cover while you work.
