Description
If you’re an experienced carer in Shirebrook looking to move away from agency rotas, PrimeCarers connects you directly with families for daytime visiting care. You’ll support people in their own homes with personal care, meals, medication prompts and errands, choosing the clients and hours that suit you. Right now, 9 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.
Visiting care in and around Shirebrook and Derbyshire is varied: some visits are short check-ins and medication support, others are longer calls for personal care and meal preparation. You’ll work with adults who want consistent, compassionate help at home — the kind of practical, respectful support that experienced carers provide day to day. Many carers who join PrimeCarers prefer the variety and continuity that visiting work brings, and the chance to build relationships rather than churn through shifts.
PrimeCarers is designed for self-employed carers. That means you set your own rates, choose your clients, and plan your own service area. Typical pay for this sort of work sits at £18.80–£20.30 per hour. PrimeCarers finds clients for you and handles contracts, invoicing and payments. While you’re working with a family through the platform, insurance is included.
This way of working suits people with at least a year’s professional care experience who want more control over their hours and who value a straightforward runner for admin and payments. To join you’ll need an Enhanced DBS (we can help arrange this), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. We don’t invent shifts for you — you choose who you work with and when.
If you live near Shirebrook you may also find opportunities close by in Warsop, Bolsover, Mansfield, Sutton in Ashfield, Netherthorpe and Kirkby in Ashfield. Applying takes minutes and your profile typically goes live within days of verification, so you can start seeing suitable clients quickly.
