Dementia Carer Jobs in Lichfield

If you’re an experienced carer who knows the value of patience, gentle routine and preserving familiar surroundings, there are ongoing opportunities supporting people living with dementia in Lichfield and the surrounding area. Many families want carers who understand how small, calm daily rituals and continuity can keep someone safe and at ease. Right now, 14 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

PrimeCarers connects self-employed carers directly with families across Lichfield and nearby towns such as Burntwood, Brownhills, Hill Hook, Aldridge, Roughley and Perry Crofts. You set the care you offer, choose the clients you accept, and decide when and where you work. Typical pay for this kind of role is £18.80–£20 per hour, and you can set your own rate within that market when you create a profile. For reference we also show £18.80–£20 per hour for hourly care and £148–£162.50 per day for live-in work.

What dementia support looks like in the home: companionship and reassurance, maintaining familiar routines, practical help with personal care, meal support, medication prompts, and gentle engagement that reduces agitation. The role suits carers who are calm under pressure, observe changes, and can build trust with consistent, respectful care. It’s ideal for people who prefer one-to-one support in the comfort of someone’s own home rather than shifts in institutional settings.

PrimeCarers is designed for experienced professionals moving away from agency models. Carers on the platform are self-employed and set their own rates, choose their clients, hours and service area. PrimeCarers finds families for you and handles contracts, invoicing and payments — insurance is included while you work. You remain in control of who you accept and how you organise your diary across Lichfield and Staffordshire.

To join you need at least 1 year of professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS check (we can help arrange one), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. Applying takes minutes; profiles typically go live within days of verification.
