Visiting Carer Jobs in Rushden

PrimeCarers connects self-employed visiting carers with families across Rushden and the surrounding area. These are ongoing, flexible opportunities supporting people in their own homes with personal care, meals, medication reminders and light errands during daytime visits. Right now, 9 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

If you want more control than agency work gives, this could suit you. You’ll arrange short daytime visits and regular hourly calls, helping clients stay independent in Rushden and nearby towns such as Higham Ferrers, Irthlingborough, Wellingborough, Raunds, Burton Latimer and Thrapston. You set your own hours, choose which clients to accept and decide the area you’ll cover. Many carers who join PrimeCarers use the platform to build a sustainable, local patch of regular daytime work across Northamptonshire.

Pay is set by you — carers on PrimeCarers set their own rates and typically position themselves within £18.80–£20.20 per hour depending on experience and the service required. PrimeCarers handles the client match, contracts, invoicing and payments, and provides insurance while you’re working for a client, so you can focus on care rather than paperwork.

Typical visiting home care duties include: personal care (washing, dressing, toileting), meal preparation and support, prompting medication or administering simple medication where agreed, companionship and supervision, shopping or collecting prescriptions, and helping clients with small household tasks during a visit. Shifts are daytime visits on an hourly basis rather than live-in placements.

To join you need at least one year of professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange this if needed), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. You remain fully self-employed: you pick clients, set rates and choose hours. PrimeCarers does not employ carers — it introduces you to families and supports contracts and payments.

Applying takes minutes and your profile typically goes live within days of verification. Once your profile is active, families in Rushden and the neighbouring towns can contact you directly to arrange introductions and visits. If you’re used to agency life but want better control over who you care for and when, PrimeCarers makes the switch straightforward and supportive.
