Dementia Carer Jobs in Redruth

If you support people living with dementia with patience, routine and careful attention to familiar surroundings, there are ongoing opportunities in and around Redruth to work as a self-employed carer. Roles are centred on keeping people safe and supported at home — spending time with them, maintaining routines, helping with personal care, medication prompts, meal support and companionship. Families often value calm, predictable visits that preserve dignity and memory through everyday activities.

There is 1 family currently looking for care in the wider area.

This work suits experienced carers who prefer continuity: repeat visits, predictable hours and getting to know the same people over weeks and months. You choose the clients you work with, the hours and the service area, and you set your own rate. Typical pay for this kind of work is £18.89–£20 per hour depending on the support needed and your experience. Many carers coming from agency roles in Redruth find the control over their diary and clients makes this a better fit long term.

PrimeCarers introduces you to families in Redruth and nearby towns such as Camborne, Penryn, Truro, Falmouth, Hayle and Helston and across Cornwall. We handle the practical side: client introductions, contracts, invoicing and secure payments so you can focus on care. While you’re working with a family through PrimeCarers, insurance is included.

To join you must have 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 post one-off listings here; this page advertises ongoing self-employed opportunities across Redruth and the surrounding area.

How it works in practice:

• Flexible hours: choose early mornings, evenings or set daytime visits that fit your life.
• Familiar routines: support clients to stay at home with consistent carers who know their preferences.
• Professional support: contracts, billing and payments arranged by PrimeCarers, plus insurance during booked shifts.

Applying takes minutes. Create a profile, upload references and DBS, and once verified your profile typically goes live within days. You remain self-employed: you set your availability, accept the clients you want and manage your diary.
