Description
Looking for live-in care work around Overton on Dee? PrimeCarers connects experienced, self-employed carers with families who need someone to live in and support daily routines in the client's home. Live-in roles mean you're part of the household—helping with personal care, meals, medication prompts, companionship and day-to-day tasks while agreed breaks are taken. Right now, 72 live-in placements are currently open across the wider region.
Live-in placements attract carers from across the UK; many travel to Shropshire and surrounding towns such as Ellesmere, Wrexham, Chirk, Rhosnesni, Rhosllannerchrugog and Malpas to take longer stays. As a self-employed carer on PrimeCarers you set your own rates and choose the clients, hours and service area that suit you. Typical pay for care work is shown as £145–£160 per day; for clarity you may also see listings with £16–£20 per hour for hourly care and £145–£160 per day for live-in day rates.
This way of working suits experienced carers who value control and predictability. If you’re used to agency rota changes and want fewer short shifts, live-in roles offer continuity: you get to build a relationship with one family, support routines over time, and work with agreed breaks in place. PrimeCarers handles client introductions, contracts, invoicing and payments — and provides insurance cover while you work.
To join you’ll need at least one year of professional care experience, the right to work in the UK, an Enhanced DBS check (we can help arrange one) and verifiable references. We do check documents and references as part of verification; applying takes minutes and most profiles go live within days of verification. You remain self-employed: you set your rates, pick the roles you want and manage your diary.
