Dementia Support Carer Jobs in Settle

PrimeCarers connects experienced, self-employed carers with families in Settle who want dementia support at home. This page advertises ongoing, flexible opportunities to support people living with dementia in familiar surroundings — helping maintain routine, dignity and small daily pleasures. Right now, 3 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

Work you’ll do often includes companionship, supporting daily routines, prompting or assisting with meals and medication, reassuring clients through calm, consistent interaction and encouraging activities that suit a person’s history and capabilities. These roles suit carers who prefer one-to-one, relationship-based support rather than hospital or rota-driven work. Many carers from Settle find they can offer steadier continuity of care because they focus on patience, repetition and predictable rhythms.

PrimeCarers is built for self-employed carers who want control. You set your own rates and choose your clients, hours and service area; typical rates for this type of support are £19–£21.50 per hour. PrimeCarers finds you clients and handles contracts, invoicing and payments. Insurance is included while you work, and we take care of the paperwork so you can concentrate on care rather than admin.

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. You must be self-employed to use the platform. Applying takes minutes and profiles typically go live within days of verification. You’ll be able to accept or decline any booking so you keep flexibility.

Many carers prefer supporting people at home because it keeps routines familiar and reduces distress for someone with dementia. In Settle you’ll meet families who want home-based, patient support that respects a person’s history and preferences. Work can be local to Settle or spread across nearby towns such as Hetton, Bentham, Grassington, Barnoldswick, Downham and Skipton in North Yorkshire, depending on the clients you choose to accept.

If you’re thinking of moving away from agency schedules or want to be selective about your work, PrimeCarers gives you practical support to make that change. There is no single advertised post here — instead, you’ll join a pool of ongoing self-employed opportunities across the Settle area. Create a profile, upload references and any training certificates, and start receiving enquiries once verified.
