Description

PrimeCarers connects experienced, self‑employed carers with families supporting someone living with dementia at home in Telscombe and the surrounding area. You’ll be working where clients are most comfortable: in familiar surroundings with routines and patience at the centre of care. Right now, 2 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

The work typically focuses on companionship, daily living support, medication prompts, gentle personal care and keeping a predictable routine that reduces anxiety for people living with dementia. If you enjoy building relationships, adapting activities to the person’s history and supporting families, these ongoing roles will suit you. Opportunities cover daytime care, short visits and live‑in support — typical hourly care and live‑in ranges are shown as £19–£21 per hour and £148–£165 per day — but as a self‑employed carer you set your own rate within the local market (typical £19–£21 per hour).

Telscombe carers who join PrimeCarers choose their own clients, hours and service area, so you can work close to home or travel to nearby towns such as Peacehaven, Newhaven, Lewes, Brighton, Seaford and Hove. PrimeCarers finds suitable clients and handles contracts, invoicing and payments on your behalf, and insurance is included while you work. Applying takes minutes and profiles typically go live within days of verification.

To join you’ll need at least one year of professional care experience, the right to work in the UK, an Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange one) and verifiable references. We don’t advertise one specific placement here — this page advertises ongoing self‑employed opportunities across Telscombe and neighbouring areas, so you can pick roles that match your skills and availability.
