Description
If you have a calm, patient approach and experience supporting people living with dementia, PrimeCarers connects you directly with local families in Hoyland who want consistent, familiar care at home. You’ll work with clients who value routine, gentle prompts and companionship so they can stay comfortable in their own surroundings.
Right now, 19 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.
What the work involves: helping with personal care, medication prompts, supporting mealtimes, maintaining reassuring routines and offering companionship that respects memory loss. Much of the role is about patience, observation and knowing when to encourage independence and when to step in. You’ll be helping people stay in their homes and communities across Hoyland and nearby areas.
How PrimeCarers supports you: carers on PrimeCarers are self-employed and set their own rates, choosing their own clients, hours and service area. PrimeCarers finds clients, handles contracts, invoicing and payments, and provides insurance while you work. Typical rates for these roles are within £18.50–£20 per hour for many carers, so you can choose how to reflect your experience and the hours you provide.
This kind of work suits carers who want continuity with the same people, who prefer one-to-one support rather than short shifts, and who appreciate working in familiar, home settings. Many experienced carers from agency backgrounds choose PrimeCarers because it gives more control over time, workload and the relationships they build with families in Hoyland and South Yorkshire.
Requirements to join are straightforward and must be met before you begin:
- At least 1 year of professional care experience
- An Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange this)
- The right to work in the UK
- Verifiable references
