Respite Carer Jobs in Lisnaskea

If you already provide care and want flexible, short-term work in and around Lisnaskea, PrimeCarers connects self‑employed carers directly with local families needing respite cover. Work can be anything from a few hours over a weekend to a couple of days when a family carer needs a proper break. New care jobs in the area are posted on PrimeCarers throughout the year.

Respite care often includes sitting, companionship, personal care, household tasks and supporting routines so the main carer can rest or attend appointments. Much of the work is local to Lisnaskea and the surrounding area, including families who travel from Enniskillen, Fivemiletown, Clogher, Fintona, Castlederg and Coalisland and across Fermanagh when they need short-term help.

This type of work suits experienced carers who want to move away from rigid agency rotas. On PrimeCarers you are self‑employed, choose your own clients, hours and service area, and set your own rates — typical roles fall within £15–£25 per hour. You’ll pick the bookings that fit your life in Lisnaskea, whether you prefer weekend shifts, evening cover or occasional multi-day stays.

To join you’ll need at least one year of professional care experience, the right to work in the UK, verifiable references and an Enhanced DBS check. If you don’t yet have an Enhanced DBS, PrimeCarers can help arrange one. While you work through the platform, insurance is included and PrimeCarers handles contracts, invoicing and payments so you can focus on care.

Pay varies by the role and how you set your rate; many carers use £15–£25 per hour for hourly visits or £148–£175 per day for live‑in day rates as a guide when creating their profile. Remember, you set your own price, and families contact you directly through the site — PrimeCarers then supports the paperwork and payment flow.

Applying takes minutes and profiles typically go live within days of verification. If you’re an experienced carer in Lisnaskea or elsewhere in Fermanagh looking for flexible respite work, creating a profile is the quickest way to start hearing from local families who need trusted short‑term cover.
