Support people living with dementia in their own homes across Swadlincote and surrounding areas.

Work in Swadlincote, pick the calls you want and keep the relationship personal. Carers on PrimeCarers set their own rates and choose their own clients, hours and service area — many carers charge within £18.50–£20.70 per hour depending on the support needed. PrimeCarers finds clients, handles contracts, invoicing and payments, and provides insurance while you are working.

This role suits someone with at least one year of professional care experience who prefers steady, relationship-based support rather than quick shifts. You’ll be confident working around familiar routines, able to build trust with people living with dementia, and happy to provide practical help alongside gentle conversation and activities that support memory and wellbeing. Working across Swadlincote and nearby towns such as Ashby Woulds, Ashby de la Zouch, Burton upon Trent, Willington, Melbourne and Hatton you’ll often be supporting people in their own home, keeping continuity and reducing unnecessary moves into unfamiliar settings.

Requirements to join are straightforward: at least 1 year of professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange one), the right to work in the UK, and verifiable references. PrimeCarers will ask for ID and references during verification; applying takes minutes and profiles typically go live within days of verification.

What you will manage as a self-employed carer: set your own hours and rates, choose the clients you want to work with, and plan visits that suit you and the person you support. PrimeCarers supports you administratively — we manage client introductions, contracts and payments so you can focus on care. Insurance is included while you work through the platform.

If you’re an experienced carer in Swadlincote or elsewhere in Derbyshire and you want to move away from agency structures while keeping security and support, PrimeCarers could be the right step. Create a profile in minutes, state the kind of dementia care you specialise in, and start choosing work that fits your life and skills.

Apply now — it’s quick to start, and you can continue delivering calm, consistent support to people who prefer to stay at home in Swadlincote and the wider community.
