Description
Work with people living with dementia in their own homes across Jewellery Quarter, bringing patience, routine and familiar surroundings to each visit. This is home-based, relationship-led care: gentle prompts, companionship, supporting daily routines and keeping the day calm and predictable. PrimeCarers connects you directly with families while taking care of the admin so you can focus on care.
Right now, 29 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.
The kind of support families ask for varies. You might be helping with personal care, prompting medication, keeping to mealtimes and bedtimes, joining in familiar activities, or spending time simply being present and reassuring. A lot of work is about listening to the person, adapting routines and working with relatives to understand what makes each client feel safe at home. Much of this happens in and around Jewellery Quarter and neighbouring areas of the West Midlands, so local knowledge helps.
Who this suits – experienced carers who prefer steady relationships with the same people. You should have at least one year of professional care experience and a calm, patient approach. We expect an Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange this), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. You’ll be self-employed, setting your own working pattern and bringing your experience to families who need continuity.
- Set your rates: carers are self-employed and choose how much to charge. Typical rates in the area are £18.50–£20 per hour.
- Choose your hours and area: you pick the clients, shifts and service area — whether you prefer the Jewellery Quarter itself or nearby streets and town centres like Cofton Common, Ladywood, Brindleyplace, Birmingham City Centre, New Town Row and Gun Quarter.
- Admin handled: PrimeCarers finds clients and manages contracts, invoicing and payments, with insurance included while you work.
Applying takes minutes and many profiles go live within days of verification. Once your profile is live, families contact you and you decide which introductions to accept. You keep control of your availability and your client list while PrimeCarers handles the paperwork that often ties carers to long agency routes.
If you want steady, relationship-focused dementia work in Jewellery Quarter and the wider West Midlands, this route gives you autonomy without having to manage every administrative detail alone. Create a profile, upload your checks and references and you could be visible to families across Jewellery Quarter within days.
