Dementia Support Carer Jobs in Street

PrimeCarers connects experienced, self-employed carers with families in Street who need patient, routine-based support for people living with dementia at home. You’ll be helping people stay in familiar surroundings, using gentle prompts, consistent routines and compassionate companionship — ideal for carers who prefer one-to-one, relationship-led care rather than rushed shifts. Right now, 7 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

Roles are ongoing self-employed opportunities across Street and nearby towns such as Glastonbury, Somerton, Langport, Wells, Shepton Mallet and Castle Cary. Carers set their own hours, choose clients and define their service area. Rates vary by carer and assignment; typical work in this role falls in the range £18.80–£20 per hour. PrimeCarers introduces you to families and handles contracts, invoicing and payments, with insurance included while you work.

What the work looks like: supporting daily routines, helping with personal care where needed, prompting meals and medication, reassuring and redirecting when confusion arises, and spending time engaging with life skills or meaningful activities. It’s often quieter, slower-paced care that values patience, consistency and small, predictable rituals.

Who this suits: carers with at least one year’s professional care experience who prefer building steady relationships rather than changing rota-driven shifts. If you’re leaving agency work because you want more control over who you support and when, PrimeCarers gives you that flexibility while taking care of the paperwork side.

Requirements to join are straightforward: at least 1 year of professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange one), the legal right to work in the UK and verifiable references. PrimeCarers will verify your documents and references so your profile can go live — applying takes minutes and profiles typically go live within days of verification.

How matching works: you create a profile, indicate your availability and the area around Street and Somerset you’re happy to work in, and PrimeCarers introduces you to families looking for long-term dementia support. You remain self-employed: you choose which introductions to accept, set your own rate and manage your diary.
