Description
Live-in care in Malden Rushett means staying with a client in their own home and supporting daily routines around the clock, with agreed breaks. These ongoing self‑employed roles suit experienced carers who want continuity of care and the deeper relationships that come from living in a client’s home. Right now, 115 live-in placements are currently open across the wider region.
The work typically includes personal care, medication prompting, meal preparation, companionship and help with mobility and daily tasks. Live-in placements often require flexibility and common sense more than specialised nursing — many carers travel to live-in roles from across the country to take on placements in Malden Rushett and surrounding areas.
If you’re used to agency life but want more control, PrimeCarers lets you choose your own clients, hours and service area. You set your rates and availability, and many carers on the platform work within a range of £148–£164.50 per day depending on the support required. We handle client introductions, contracts, invoicing and payments, and provide insurance cover while you are working with a client.
This kind of role suits carers who have at least one year of professional care experience and who want predictable routines and a closer working relationship with a household. Live-in care often involves quiet night waking, assistance with morning and evening routines and shared mealtimes. Breaks are agreed with the client and managed according to the care plan.
