What live-in care looks like: you’ll live in the client’s home and help with daily routines such as supporting personal care, prompting medication, preparing meals, companionship and light household tasks. Live-in care involves being available through the day and night with agreed rest breaks; many carers alternate sleep-in time with active support. Carers travel from across the country for live-in placements and often stay for weeks or months at a time. Typical hourly-care and live-in guidance: £18.50–£20 per hour for hourly care and £145–£160 per day for a live-in day.

Who this suits: experienced, reliable carers with at least one year of professional care experience who want more control than agency rosters allow. If you’re thinking of moving away from agency work to run your own self-employed care practice, PrimeCarers gives you the platform to pick clients who match your skills and preferences.

What PrimeCarers handles for you: we find clients and manage contracts, invoicing and payments on your behalf, and insurance is included while you work through the platform. You remain self-employed, set your rates, and accept or decline any booking. To join you’ll need an Enhanced DBS check (we can help arrange this), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references.
