Description
Working with people living with dementia in their own homes is about patience, routine and keeping familiar surroundings as steady as possible. In Neath you’ll help people stay connected to the life they know — supporting daily routines, offering calm companionship and assisting with personal care when needed. There is 1 family currently looking for care in the wider area.
The day-to-day work varies: you might support morning and evening routines, reassure a client through memory difficulties, prompt medication, or help keep meaningful activities part of the day. Much of the role is about building trust and recognising the small, steady things that make a home feel safe. These are community-centred roles across Neath and the wider Neath Port Talbot area.
This work suits carers with at least one year’s professional care experience who value continuity and relationship-based support. On PrimeCarers you’re self-employed: you set your own rates, choose your clients, hours and service area, and keep the control over how you work. To join you’ll need an Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange one), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references.
PrimeCarers finds families and handles the paperwork so you can focus on care. We take care of contracts, invoicing and payments, and provide insurance while you work. Typical roles for dementia care in this area sit around £19–£24.10 per hour, with options across hour-based and live-in shifts.

Getting started takes minutes. Create a profile, upload your references and DBS, and once verified your profile typically goes live within days. You remain free to accept or decline any request — that flexibility is central to working through PrimeCarers. If you’re ready to move away from agency routines and give long-term, person-centred dementia support in Neath, this is set up to make that change straightforward.
