Visiting Carer Jobs in Truro

If you want daytime visiting care work in and around Truro that fits your life, PrimeCarers connects you directly with local families. The role is straightforward: short, regular home visits helping people with personal care, meals, medication prompts and light errands. You’ll be working with adults in their own homes, building relationships and supporting independence across Truro and nearby communities.

New care jobs in the area are posted on PrimeCarers throughout the year.

Visits are typically hourly and flexible, suited to carers who prefer variety and control over their diary. On PrimeCarers you’re self-employed, choose your clients, decide your service area and set your own rates. Typical rates range from £15–£25 per hour depending on client needs and travel. You’ll meet people who need help with bathing and dressing, meal preparation, prompt-taking of medication, companionship, and shopping or posting letters.

This work suits experienced carers who value autonomy. Many people join us after agency work because they want clearer control over hours, the people they support and their local rounds across Truro, Penryn and Falmouth. You’ll need at least one year of professional care experience, the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. An Enhanced DBS check is required; PrimeCarers can help arrange this if you don’t already have one.

PrimeCarers handles the practical side so you can focus on caring. We find clients, prepare the contracts, manage invoicing and process payments. While you’re working with an arranged client, insurance is included. Applying takes minutes and profiles typically go live within days of verification, so you can start choosing shifts quickly.

Work areas include Truro and the surrounding towns such as Penryn, St Mawes, Falmouth, Redruth, Camborne and St Columb Major. You’ll be free to accept short daytime calls or a regular patch of visits that suit your week. If you prefer fewer longer calls or several short visits, you decide — families contact carers directly through your profile.

How to apply: create a short profile, upload ID and references, and request help with DBS if needed. PrimeCarers verifies information, then your profile goes live and families can contact you. The whole process is built for experienced carers who want flexible, reliable visiting care work in Cornwall without agency constraints.
