Supporting someone with dementia at home is about patience, quiet routines and keeping familiar surroundings.

Right now, 11 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

As a carer on PrimeCarers you set your own terms. You choose who you work with, which hours you take and the area you cover around Hythe and across Kent. Typical rates for this kind of work are £18.80–£20 per hour; roles can be hourly (see £18.80–£20 per hour) or live‑in (see £145–£160.50 per day), and you decide the exact rate you charge. This is not one specific post — it’s a way to find ongoing clients who need dementia care at home, rather than moving between short shifts.

PrimeCarers finds clients, handles contracts, invoicing and payments, and includes insurance while you work — so you can concentrate on consistent, person‑centred care. Many carers switching from agency work tell us they value the continuity: building routines, noticing small changes and supporting families in Hythe, Folkestone and beyond. Profiles take minutes to create and typically go live within days of verification, so you can start seeing suitable matches quickly.

Who we’re looking for

• At least one year of professional care experience, ideally with dementia or older‑adult support.
• An Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange this if needed).
• The right to work in the UK and verifiable references.
• A calm, patient approach and experience supporting routines, memory loss, and agitation de‑escalation.

If you’re used to building trust over weeks and months rather than rushing between tasks, PrimeCarers can help you find families in Hythe and nearby towns such as Folkestone, New Romney, Ashford, Dover, Lydd and Canterbury. You remain self‑employed, set your own rates and keep control of your diary. PrimeCarers takes care of the paperwork, payments and insurance so you can focus on the care.

Applying takes minutes — create your profile, submit your documents and references, and once verified your profile usually goes live within days. If you’d like reliable, relationship‑based dementia work around Hythe with full flexibility and background support, join PrimeCarers and start choosing the clients and hours that suit you.
