Description
Join PrimeCarers as a self-employed dementia support carer in South Molton and help people stay at home where routine and familiar surroundings matter most. You’ll be supporting clients who benefit from gentle, patient care, predictable patterns and the reassurance of continuity. We’re advertising ongoing roles for carers who prefer building relationships rather than shifting between short visits.
Right now, 2 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.
This work suits experienced carers who know how to create calm, meaningful days: keeping to routines, offering memory-friendly activities, supporting personal care sensitively and communicating clearly with families. Many of our carers enjoy providing companionship, helping with light household tasks, prompting medication as agreed and working with family members to preserve dignity and independence.
On PrimeCarers you are self-employed: you set your own rates, choose your clients, hours and the area you cover. Typical rates for this role are £19–£19.20 per hour. You can accept occasional visits, regular calls or live-in support where appropriate. We operate across South Molton and nearby towns including Chulmleigh, Barnstaple, Ten Acres, Dulverton, Great Torrington and Lynton, and we also cover other parts of Devon for carers who want to travel a little further.
PrimeCarers finds clients for you and handles contracts, invoicing and payments. While you work, insurance is included. That means less paperwork for you and more time on the things that matter — the people you care for. Applying takes minutes and verified profiles typically go live within days.
What we need from you
- At least 1 year of professional care experience, ideally including work with people living with dementia.
- An Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange one if you need it).
- The right to work in the UK and verifiable references.
PrimeCarers is designed for carers thinking about leaving traditional agency models: you keep control over your work, choose the support you give, and build longer-term relationships if you wish. We don’t promise specific shifts or incomes — you decide how much you work and which clients you accept.
If you’re a compassionate, experienced carer who values routine, patience and continuity, this could be the right next step. Apply now — it really does take minutes to create a profile, and you can be connecting with families in and around South Molton within days of verification.
