Description

If you have experience supporting people living with dementia and want to work more independently in Loddon, PrimeCarers connects you directly with families who need calm, patient care at home. You remain self‑employed: you set your own rates, choose clients, hours and your service area, while PrimeCarers handles client matching, contracts, invoicing and payments — with insurance included while you work. Applying takes minutes and profiles typically go live within days of verification.
Right now, 7 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

Work typically focuses on keeping life familiar and calm for people living with dementia. That can mean helping keep routines consistent, offering companionship and meaningful activity, supporting personal care with dignity, prompting medication, and spotting small changes in mood or health to share with families and professionals. The role suits carers who are patient, observant and confident working in someone’s home to preserve independence and routine rather than in busy institutional settings. All care is delivered in the client’s home to help them stay comfortable and connected to their community in Loddon.

PrimeCarers is built for experienced carers who want flexibility and a closer relationship with the families they support. You must have at least one year of professional care experience, the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. An Enhanced DBS check is required; PrimeCarers can help you arrange one if you don’t already have it. As a self‑employed carer you decide your availability and areas you will travel to; typical rates fall within £19–£22.40 per hour and you can set your own hourly rate within that local range.

Many carers on the platform support families across this part of Norfolk, serving Loddon and nearby communities such as Bungay, Beccles, Acle, Thorpe St Andrew, Norwich and Carlton Colville. Some carers offer short visits and companionship, others provide longer calls or live‑in days. If you prefer a particular pattern of hours — mornings, evenings or longer weekend support — you can advertise that in your profile and choose the clients who match your preferences.

PrimeCarers does the administrative heavy lifting: we find clients, manage contracts, handle invoicing and payments, and provide insurance while you are working. You create a profile, upload your documents and references, and once verified you can start reviewing client requests. Applying takes minutes, profiles typically go live within days of verification, and you remain in control of which families you work with in Loddon. If you’re ready to work supportively with people living with dementia and want more control than traditional agency work, create your profile today and see what local family requests match your skills and availability.
