Description

PrimeCarers is connecting experienced companionship carers with families across Stenhousemuir who want friendly, reliable company.

Companionship roles are ideal if you enjoy building steady relationships rather than shifting between different care tasks.

Pay is set by you; typical rates for this kind of work are £18.80–£20 per hour.

On PrimeCarers you work as a self-employed carer: you set your own rates, choose your clients, hours and service area, and keep control of your diary.

This work typically includes:

  • Friendly conversation and regular visits
  • Accompanying clients on short outings and to local groups
  • Helping with hobbies, household tidying and reassurance
  • Being a steady, calm presence for people who need company

Requirements to join are straightforward: at least one year of professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange this), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. PrimeCarers will ask to verify these before your profile goes live.
