Description
Join PrimeCarers as a self-employed hourly care assistant supporting people in their own homes across Verwood and the surrounding area. You’ll visit clients for daytime support with personal care, meal preparation, medication prompts and light errands — the practical, hands-on help that keeps someone living independently. You set your own pace, choose the clients you want to work with and decide the hours that fit your life, while PrimeCarers handles contracts, invoicing and payments and provides insurance while you work. Right now, 14 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.
The work suits experienced carers used to agency or domiciliary care who want more control and fairer pay. Typical daytime visits can include help with washing and dressing, continence support, moving and handling where trained, preparing hot meals or snacks, supporting medication routines and short trips to shops or appointments. Visits are usually hourly or short blocks, and you’ll manage travel between visits yourself within the area you choose.
Pay and flexibility: Carers on PrimeCarers are self-employed and set their own rates. Typical pay for roles like these is £19–£25 per hour depending on the client and the services agreed. You choose when and how much you work: mornings, afternoons, or a mix through the week. PrimeCarers finds clients, handles the admin and collects payments so you can focus on care.
Requirements to join are straightforward and aimed at experienced, reliable people. You need at least one year of professional care experience, the right to work in the UK, verifiable references and an Enhanced DBS check — PrimeCarers can help arrange a DBS if you don’t already have one. You’ll also confirm the areas you’re willing to cover; many carers in Verwood also accept work near Ringwood, Fordingbridge, Ferndown, Wimborne Minster, Christchurch and Highcliffe.
How it works: create a profile, list your experience and set your rates. Applying takes minutes and profiles typically go live within days of verification, so you can start accepting work quickly. PrimeCarers gives you contract and invoicing support, handles payments and includes insurance during assignments, letting you concentrate on clients and care rather than paperwork.
If you’re ready to move away from agency constraints, keep full control of your schedule and deliver compassionate, practical support in Verwood and Dorset, this is a straightforward route to independent, flexible care work.
