Dementia Support Carer Jobs in Longsight

If you’re an experienced carer who wants to support people living with dementia at home, PrimeCarers connects you directly with families across Longsight. The role is about patience, steady routines and helping people keep familiar surroundings—simple, consistent support that makes a real difference day to day in Longsight and nearby areas of Manchester. Right now, 23 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

The work typically focuses on in-home dementia support: offering companionship, prompting medication, supporting daily routines like bathing, dressing and mealtimes, helping with light domestic tasks and keeping clear notes for families. You’ll work with people who benefit from calm, predictable visits and a carer who can adapt to changing needs while keeping dignity and routine at the centre.

As a PrimeCarers self-employed carer you choose who you work with, the hours you accept and the area you cover. Many carers set rates in the range £18.50–£20 per hour; you set the exact rate that suits you. PrimeCarers finds clients, handles contracts, invoicing and payments, and provides insurance while you work so you can focus on care rather than paperwork.

This type of role suits carers who have a calm bedside manner, respect for routine, and experience supporting people with memory loss. If you’re currently working for an agency and want more control over clients and shifts, or if you’re returning to care after a break and want straightforward, local work in Longsight and places like Levenshulme, Belle Vue, West Gorton, Burnage, Ardwick and Fallowfield, this could be a good fit.

To join you’ll need at least one year of professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange this), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. Applying takes minutes and profiles typically go live within days of verification. We do not advertise a specific role here — this page promotes ongoing self-employed opportunities across Longsight and surrounding neighbourhoods.
