PrimeCarers finds clients for you and handles the practical side: contracts, invoicing and payment processing are taken care of, and we include insurance while you’re working with a family sourced through the platform.

This work suits experienced carers who value continuity — people who prefer longer-standing relationships, predictable routines and supporting clients in their own homes. You’ll use listening, observation and patience to support memory, orientation and daily living. Tasks often include companionship, prompting with personal care and medication (as agreed), support with meals and safe mobility, and working with families to maintain routines that matter to the person with dementia.

To join you’ll need at least one year of professional care experience, the right to work in the UK, an Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange this if needed) and verifiable references.
