Description

Work with families in Stourbridge to support people living with dementia in their own homes, keeping routines, familiar surroundings and calm company at the centre of care. These roles suit calm, patient carers who prefer one‑to‑one support and value continuity of care for clients and their families. Right now, 24 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

As a self‑employed carer on PrimeCarers you choose who you work with, what hours you do and the streets you want to cover in and around Stourbridge. Many carers focus on companionship, establishing gentle routines, supporting meals, prompting medication, helping with mobility and providing meaningful conversation to reduce confusion. Working in someone’s home lets you see the difference steady, familiar support makes for both the person with dementia and their family in the West Midlands.

Pay is set by you; typical rates for these roles are £18.50–£20 per hour. Typical hourly and live‑in ranges are shown on our platform: £18.50–£20 per hour and £145–£160 per day. PrimeCarers finds you clients and takes care of contracts, invoicing and payments, and includes insurance while you work so you can focus on care rather than paperwork.

These ongoing, self‑employed opportunities are spread across Stourbridge and nearby areas including Lye, Brierley Hill, Cradley Heath, Netherton, Halesowen and Gornal. If you’re used to agency work but want more control — over clients, shifts and earnings — PrimeCarers makes the switch straightforward. Applying takes minutes and profiles typically go live within days of verification.

We’re looking for experienced carers who bring patience, respect for routine, and a steady presence for people with dementia. If that sounds like you, creating a profile is quick and puts you in touch with families who want home‑based support delivered with compassion and consistency.

  • Who this suits: experienced carers with at least a year of professional care experience who prefer home visits and continuity of care.
  • Support offered: companionship, daily routines, personal care assistance, meal support, safe transfers and observation/reporting changes to family and healthcare professionals.
  • Onboarding requirements: at least 1 year’s care experience, an Enhanced DBS (we can help arrange one), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references.

To apply, set up a profile — it only takes a few minutes. PrimeCarers will guide you through verification and, once complete, your profile can be live within days so families in Stourbridge and the surrounding area can find you.
