Description

PrimeCarers connects experienced, self-employed carers with families in Marazion and across Cornwall. These are ongoing opportunities for hourly home care — daytime visits helping clients in their own homes with personal care, meals, medication and errands. You choose which clients to work with, which hours to accept and the area you cover; you also set your own rates and availability. Right now, 2 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

What the daytime visits involve

  • Personal care: help with washing, dressing and continence support as needed.
  • Meals: meal preparation, prompting to eat and supporting people with dietary needs.
  • Medication: prompting and support with medicines, following care instructions.
  • Errands and practical help: shopping, pharmacy runs, light domestic tasks and companionship.

If you’re thinking of leaving agency work, PrimeCarers helps you keep the hands-on part of caring while letting you control your schedule and rates. You can work across Marazion and nearby towns such as Penzance, Newlyn, Hayle, St Ives, Porthleven and Helston, choosing clients that fit your skills and availability.
