Right now, 11 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.
The kind of work varies with each family. Expect to support everyday living through patient, consistent approaches — mealtime prompts, prompting and supervising medication, gentle mobility support, structured activities that suit a person’s history and interests, and practical household help. Much of the role is about routine, reassurance and small, meaningful interactions that preserve dignity and independence. Roles are based in Market Drayton and across Shropshire.
These opportunities suit carers who prefer continuity: building trusting relationships, working to predictable plans and helping maintain familiar days for people with dementia. Carers on PrimeCarers are self-employed, set their own rates and choose their clients, hours and service area. Typical rates fall in £18.70–£20 per hour, and you decide what works for you between hourly or live-in arrangements.
