Description

Work supporting people living with dementia in their own homes around Inverurie. This role suits experienced carers who value patience, steady routines and keeping people comfortable in familiar surroundings. You’ll help with personal care, companionship, mealtime support, prompts for medication, meaningful activities and preserving daily rhythms—all at a pace that respects the person you’re supporting. There is 1 family currently looking for care in the wider area.

PrimeCarers connects self-employed carers directly with families across Inverurie and nearby areas. Carers set their own rates and choose which clients, hours and service area they accept, with typical roles falling in the range £18.80–£20 per hour. We support both regular hourly visits and longer live-in arrangements; the platform also shows ranges like £18.80–£20 per hour and £145–£160 per day for reference while you build your profile.

This work is for people who already have hands-on care experience and want more control than traditional agency work. You’ll do dementia-focused support that values routine, familiar cues and reassurance: maintaining day-to-day structure, encouraging independence where possible and using calm, consistent approaches when behaviours change. Inverurie families often ask for carers who can bring kindness, discretion and a steady presence into the home.

Requirements to join PrimeCarers are straightforward: at least one year of professional care experience, the right to work in the UK, verifiable references and an Enhanced DBS check (we can help arrange this). You remain self-employed — you set your rates, pick your clients and manage your diary — while PrimeCarers handles client introductions, contracts, invoicing and payments. Insurance is included for the time you’re working through the platform.

If you’re currently working through an agency and thinking about a change, PrimeCarers can offer more autonomy without the added admin. You’ll be visible to families in Kintore, Oldmeldrum, Kemnay, Westhill, Insch and Ellon and across Aberdeenshire, and you decide which requests to accept. Applying takes minutes; profiles typically go live within days of verification.

To apply, create a profile, add your experience and references, and tell us the areas and hours you prefer. Once verified you can start receiving enquiries from families looking for dementia support in Inverurie and the wider area. If you have questions about DBS checks or how self-employed care works on the platform, our team can talk you through the next steps.
