Description

PrimeCarers connects experienced, self-employed carers with families across Radcliffe for daytime hourly home care. You’ll visit clients in their own homes to help with personal care, meals, medication prompts, shopping or small errands, and friendly companionship. Work is local to Radcliffe and the surrounding area, with many opportunities close to home in and around Manchester and nearby towns such as Whitefield, Kearsley, Bury, Prestwich, Farnworth and Swinton.

Right now, 27 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

This type of role suits practical, reliable carers who want to move away from shift-led agency work and take control of their diary. You set your own hours, choose clients who fit you, and decide the service area you work in. Carers on PrimeCarers are self-employed and set their own rates; typical hourly work is in the range £18.50–£20 per hour. PrimeCarers finds people who need care, handles contracts, invoicing and payments, and includes insurance while you’re working.

Typical daytime hourly visits include:

  • Personal care: assisted washing, dressing and continence support as agreed with the client.
  • Practical help: cooking simple meals, shopping, medication reminders and light household tasks.
  • Companionship: supporting social needs, accompanying to appointments or short outings.

Requirements to join are straightforward: at least one year’s professional care experience, the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. You’ll also need an Enhanced DBS check — PrimeCarers can help arrange this if you don’t already have one. We don’t post single, fixed roles here; instead we advertise ongoing, self-employed opportunities across Radcliffe so you can build the pattern of work that suits you.

Applying takes minutes and profiles typically go live within days of verification. While you’re listed, PrimeCarers will introduce you to families in Radcliffe and nearby areas; you remain in control of which introductions you accept. Insurance is included while you’re working through the platform and PrimeCarers manages the invoicing and payments so you can focus on care.
