Dementia Carer Jobs in Shaw and Crompton

PrimeCarers is recruiting experienced, compassionate carers to support people living with dementia at home in Shaw and Crompton. These are ongoing self‑employed opportunities — not one specific posting — for carers who prefer to work with routine, patience and familiar surroundings. Right now, 19 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

Work typically focuses on keeping people comfortable and safe in their own homes. That can include companionship, gentle prompting with daily routines, personal care support, help with meals and medication prompts, and short local outings when a client wants them. Much of the role is about consistency: building trust through the same faces, predictable patterns and calm reassurance.

This kind of caring suits someone who already has hands‑on experience with dementia, who values small routines, clear communication with families and slow, steady progress rather than quick fixes. Many carers moving away from agency rotas choose self‑employment here because it lets them keep long‑term relationships with the people they support in Shaw and Crompton and nearby towns like Royton, Milnrow, Oldham, Rochdale, Chadderton and Littleborough.

On PrimeCarers you set your own rates and choose your clients, hours and service area. Typical roles for this work fall around £18.50–£20 per hour. We find you clients, manage contracts, invoicing and payments, and provide insurance while you are working on an assignment. You stay in control of when and where you work, and PrimeCarers handles the paperwork side so you can focus on caring.

To join you 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 will also ask about your experience supporting people with dementia so we can make suitable matches and brief families accurately.

Applying takes minutes online. Once you upload your documents and references and we verify them, profiles typically go live within days.
