Dementia Support Carer Jobs in Redcar

If you’re an experienced carer in Redcar who prefers patience, routine and familiar surroundings when supporting someone with dementia, PrimeCarers connects you directly with local families seeking ongoing home support. You remain self-employed, choose your clients, hours and service area, and set your own rates. Right now, 3 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

Work typically involves supporting people with memory loss to stay comfortable and confident at home: gentle reassurance, maintaining daily routines, prompting medication and meals, companionship, safe moving and personal care where needed. Much of the work is about knowing the person — their preferences, favourite songs, habits and small cues that reduce confusion. You’ll be based in Redcar and often travel short distances across the borough and nearby towns such as Eston, Saltburn by the Sea, Skelton in Cleveland, Guisborough, Loftus and Billingham.

This role suits carers who value continuity of care and want to build lasting relationships rather than turn up for a rota. It’s a good fit if you already have experience in dementia care, are calm under pressure, and enjoy creating predictable routines that help people stay connected to home and memory.

Practical points:

• Self-employed: You set your rates and choose the hours you work.
• Pay: Typical rates for this kind of role appear as £18.60–£20 per hour.
• Flexibility: Choose short visits, longer calls or live-in arrangements within the area you want to cover.
• Support from PrimeCarers: We find you clients, handle contracts, invoicing and payments, and include insurance while you work.

To join you’ll need at least one year of professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS check (we can help arrange this), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. We do not list one-off shifts here — PrimeCarers advertises ongoing self-employed opportunities across Redcar and Cleveland for carers who want steadier relationships with clients.

Applying takes minutes and most profiles go live within days of verification. Once your profile is active you can review matches and choose clients that suit your skills, availability and preferred neighbourhoods in and around Redcar.

If you’re thinking of leaving agency work to focus on dementia support in the home, sign up to get matched with local families who value continuity, kindness and experience.
