Description
Live-in care in Malvern means living with a client in their home, supporting daily routines and overnight needs while taking agreed breaks. You’ll help with personal care, medication prompts, mealtimes, mobility and companionship, and work closely with families to shape a consistent day-to-day plan. Right now, 136 live-in placements are currently open across the wider region.
This work suits experienced carers who want control over where and how they work. On PrimeCarers you are self-employed: you set your own rates, choose clients, hours and your service area. Many carers based in Malvern or travelling into Worcestershire find the variety and continuity of live-in placements more rewarding than shift-based agency work.
Pay and practical flexibility are clear: carers on the platform set their own pay within typical ranges such as £145–£160 per day. For reference, typical hourly care shifts fall in £18.80–£20 per hour and live-in day rates are shown as £145–£160 per day — but you choose the rate you’re comfortable with. PrimeCarers makes it straightforward to agree terms with families without being tied to a rota or employer contract.
To join you’ll need:
- At least 1 year of professional care experience — hands-on experience supporting adults or older people.
- An Enhanced DBS check — PrimeCarers can help arrange one if you don’t have a current check.
- The right to work in the UK and verifiable references.
Live-in placements often mean travelling from elsewhere in the UK to stay with a client for an agreed period. You’ll agree rest and break times with the family before you start, and many carers travel from across the country for these roles. We connect carers in Malvern with families across Great Malvern, Upton upon Severn, Ledbury, Worcester, Bromyard and Pershore, making placements around the town and the wider Worcestershire area easier to find and manage.
