Description
Support people living with dementia in their own homes around Kemnay and nearby villages in Aberdeenshire. This role is about patience, gentle routine, familiar surroundings and safe companionship — helping with daily tasks, prompting, meaningful conversation and reassurance rather than task-driven care. Right now, 2 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.
These are ongoing, self-employed opportunities across Kemnay and the wider area. You choose which clients you work with, your hours and the area you cover. Many carers prefer staying local and taking calls in and around Kemnay; you can also pick jobs in nearby towns such as Kintore, Inverurie, Westhill, Oldmeldrum, Insch and Banchory. PrimeCarers finds clients, handles contracts, invoicing and payments, and includes insurance while you work, so you can focus on delivering calm, consistent dementia support.
Pay is set by you — most carers offering dementia support on PrimeCarers work within £18.80–£20 per hour, though you can decide your own rate. You’ll work directly with families to support a routine at home, helping with everyday activities, medication prompts, reassurance during anxiety or confusion, and maintaining familiar rhythms that reduce distress. Work may include short visits, regular daily calls or longer live‑in arrangements depending on what you and a family agree.
This role suits experienced, compassionate carers who value continuity and relationship-based support. It’s ideal if you’re thinking of moving away from agency rosters and want more control over your work pattern and who you visit. To join you need at least one year of professional care experience, the right to work in the UK, an Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange one) and verifiable references.
Applying takes minutes: create a profile, upload your documents and references, and once verified your profile typically goes live within days. You remain self-employed, set your own hours and choose your clients. PrimeCarers will match you with local families, manage the paperwork and process payments, so you spend less time on admin and more time delivering good dementia care in the community.
