Description
Work with people living with dementia in Limavady and around County Londonderry, supporting familiar routines, companionship and day-to-day independence in the home. These ongoing self-employed opportunities are for experienced carers who value patience, predictable routines and the small, meaningful comforts that make a house feel like home. There is 1 family currently looking for care in the wider area.
Your role will focus on support at home: cues to reduce confusion, consistent daily routines, simple meaningful activities, help with personal care where needed, and clear, calm communication. You’ll visit people in private homes in Limavady and nearby communities, building trust and continuity rather than short, rushed calls. Work suits carers who prefer time to settle in with each person, who know how to adapt to changing needs and who enjoy the quieter, relationship-led side of care.
Carers on PrimeCarers are self-employed and set their own hours and service area. Typical rates for this kind of dementia support are £15–£25 per hour; many carers list hourly rates within £15–£25 per hour or choose to offer live-in day rates in the range £145–£165 per day. You choose which clients you accept and how much you charge, while PrimeCarers finds clients, handles contracts, invoicing and payments and includes insurance while you work.
To join you’ll need at least one year of professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS check (we can help arrange this), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. If you’ve been working through agencies and want more control over your time and the people you support, PrimeCarers gives you the freedom to choose in Limavady and with clients across nearby towns such as Coleraine, Portstewart, Derry, Portrush, Ballymoney and Bushmills.
Applying takes minutes using our online profile form; most carers’ profiles go live within days of verification. You remain self-employed at all times and can accept shifts that suit your life. PrimeCarers manages the admin so you can focus on delivering calm, consistent dementia care in your community.
