Work includes personal care, help with meals, medication prompts and light errands for people remaining in their own homes across Oadby and nearby suburbs. Right now, 5 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.
This is ongoing self-employed work, not a single role. You set your own hours, choose which clients you accept and define your service area around Oadby and across Leicestershire. Carers on PrimeCarers set their own rates — expect typical packages around £18.50–£20 per hour for hourly home care — and you remain in control of the work you do.
PrimeCarers finds clients for you and takes care of contracts, invoicing and payments so you can focus on care. While you’re working on a live booking, insurance is included. Many carers who have left agency models appreciate the clarity of handling their own rota while having administrative tasks taken care of.
Typical daytime duties include:
- Personal care such as washing, dressing and continence support;
- Preparing meals and supporting with nutrition and mealtimes;
- Medication prompting and assisting with prompts;
- Light household tasks, shopping or local errands to keep people independent.
