Description
Join PrimeCarers as a self-employed dementia support carer in Turves Green and help people remain safe, comfortable and known to the people who matter to them. This is home-based work that values patience, routine and familiar surroundings — supporting people with memory loss through day-to-day tasks, companionship, gentle prompts and the small, steady things that keep a life connected.
Right now, 25 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.
A typical day might include supporting morning or evening routines, helping with personal care where needed, prompting medication, keeping a calm pace during activities and sharing memories or life stories to reduce anxiety. You’ll work to a person-centred plan, encourage consistency and respect the rhythms that matter to someone living with dementia. Turves Green families often ask for carers who can bring quiet confidence, creative patience and reliable routines.
If you’re thinking of moving away from agency rounds, PrimeCarers lets experienced carers set their own working patterns while keeping professional safeguards in place. Carers on PrimeCarers are self-employed: you choose your clients, hours and service area, and you set your rates. Typical earnings fall in the range £18.50–£20 per hour depending on the care required and the hours agreed.
PrimeCarers finds clients for you and handles contracts, invoicing and payments — plus insurance is included while you work through the platform. That means you can focus on care, not paperwork. Many carers working in Turves Green also pick up calls in nearby areas such as West Heath, Longbridge, Northfield, Rednal, Rubery and New Frankley, making it easy to build a practical, local diary.
You’re right for this if you have at least one year’s professional care experience, a calm approach to memory loss, and respect for the value of routines and familiar surroundings. To join you will need an Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange this), the right to work in the UK, and verifiable references. We ask for experience and references because families depend on continuity and proven skills when supporting someone with dementia.
Applying takes minutes. Once you’ve created your profile and completed verification, profiles typically go live within days — then you can begin to browse and accept ongoing self-employed opportunities in Turves Green and the wider West Midlands. This page advertises ongoing roles across the area, not one specific post. If you want quieter hours, regular visits or longer live-in arrangements, you choose what suits you and the people you support.
