Live-in roles suit carers who want continuity of care and deeper relationships with clients — perhaps to support someone waking and sleeping patterns, medication routines, personal care and companionship through the day and night. Placements often involve household tasks, meal support, mobility assistance and liaising with family or healthcare professionals. Carers who prefer fewer travel nights and predictable blocks of time often favour live-in work in Pendlebury and the surrounding area including Swinton, Salford, Prestwich, Eccles, Strangeways and Worsley.

As a self-employed carer on PrimeCarers you set your own rates and choose the clients and hours you accept. Typical pay falls in the range £145–£160 per day; for reference, you may see day rates and hourly care ranges such as £145–£160 per day for live-in days and £18.50–£20 per hour for hourly care when clients need daytime-only support. PrimeCarers lists the match and handles contracts, invoicing and payments, with insurance included while you work.

To join you’ll need at least one year of professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS check (we can help arrange one), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. We’re looking for reliable, experienced carers who can work respectfully in someone’s home and who understand the responsibilities of a live-in role.

Applying takes minutes: complete a profile, upload documents and references, and our team will verify you. Profiles typically go live within days of verification. Once live you can browse client requests, agree terms directly and travel for placements across Pendlebury, wider Manchester and nearby towns.
