Description
PrimeCarers connects self-employed carers with families offering live-in care in Kintore and the surrounding area. Live-in roles mean you live with a client in their home, supporting daily routines and providing overnight companionship and assistance, with agreed breaks and time off. Carers travel from across the country for live-in placements and many find the deeper relationships and continuity of care very rewarding. Right now, 5 live-in placements are currently open across the wider region.
Live-in work suits experienced carers who want stability and flexibility: you manage care plans day-to-day, help with personal care, meals, medication prompts, household tasks and offer companionship. Many carers come from agency backgrounds but prefer setting their own terms — on PrimeCarers you set your own rates, choose your clients, hours and service area, and can accept only the placements that fit your life.
Pay and practicalities: rates vary by client and need — you decide what to charge within the local ranges. Typical rates for this kind of work are £145–£160 per day. For clarity, you can consult the £18.80–£20 per hour and £145–£160 per day tokens when reviewing opportunities on the platform. PrimeCarers handles client introductions, contracts, invoicing and payments, and provides insurance cover while you work.
Who this is for:
- Experienced carers with at least one year of professional care experience.
- People with an Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange one if you need it).
- Those with the right to work in the UK and verifiable references.
