Description

PrimeCarers finds clients and handles contracts, invoicing and payments, with insurance included while you work.

Tasks are typically non-clinical: prompting, reassurance, light domestic help like making drinks or tidying, and keeping company. If you’re leaving agency care because you want more control over who you work with and when, Tokyngton offers regular opportunities close to home and in nearby areas including Wembley Park, Brent Park, Alperton, Wembley, Neasden and Park Royal.
