Description
Live-in care assistant roles in Radstock suit experienced carers who want to be at the heart of someone's daily life. As a live-in carer you’ll stay in the person's home, supporting routines around the clock with agreed breaks, travelling from across the country for placements when needed. You set your own hours and rates and usually see the deeper impact of continuity of care in a way that shift work rarely allows. Right now, 114 live-in placements are currently open across the wider region.
Work on PrimeCarers is self-employed and flexible: you choose your clients, the area you cover and the rates you set. Typical pay is in the region of £145–£160 per day for this kind of role, with daytime and hourly care commonly within £19–£24 per hour and live-in day packages often shown as £145–£160 per day. PrimeCarers finds clients, handles contracts, invoicing and payments, and provides insurance while you are working with a client.
This style of work suits carers who want more control than traditional agency work gives. You’ll be helping with personal care, medication prompts, meal routines, companionship and household support within a live-in setting. Good observational skills, kindness and the ability to work independently are vital. Many carers who start with PrimeCarers come from agency backgrounds and appreciate choosing who they work for and when.
To join we require at least one year of professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange this), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. You’ll be asked to create a short profile showing your experience and availability. Applying takes minutes and profiles typically go live within days of verification. You may be matched with opportunities around Radstock and nearby towns such as Norton Radstock, Midsomer Norton, Frome, Bath, Shepton Mallet and Keynsham and across Bath and North East Somerset.
How to apply: set up a profile on PrimeCarers, add your experience and references, and choose the hours and service area you prefer. Once verified you’ll be able to browse and choose clients who fit your skills and preferences. If you prefer live-in placements, make that clear on your profile and accept roles that match your travel and availability needs.
If you want more control over your work, clearer paperwork and support with contracts and payments while remaining self-employed, PrimeCarers is built for carers like you. Create a profile and start seeing suitable live-in care opportunities in Radstock and the surrounding area in days.
