Description
Looking for flexible visiting carer work in Wednesbury and the surrounding area? PrimeCarers connects experienced, self-employed carers with families who need daytime visits for personal care, meal support, medication prompts and errands. You choose the clients you want to work with, the hours you accept and the area you cover. Right now, 19 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.
What the role involves: daytime, hourly home care visits to help people in their own homes with tasks such as personal care (washing, dressing, continence support), preparing meals, supporting medication routines, companionship and shopping or collecting prescriptions. Visits are typically short, scheduled calls during the day rather than live‑in work, and you’ll be able to accept work that fits your availability across Wednesbury and nearby towns including Moxley, Darlaston, Ridgacre, Bilston, Tipton and Willenhall.
Who this suits: experienced carers who want to move away from agency rotas and reclaim control over their work. If you have at least one year of professional care experience, enjoy building relationships and want to work with dignity and consistency, this is a practical way to keep delivering great care while setting your own terms.
Pay and flexibility: carers on PrimeCarers are self‑employed and set their own rates. Hourly care typically falls in the range £18.80–£20 per hour but you decide what to charge and which bookings to accept. PrimeCarers handles client introductions, contracts, invoicing and payments, and provides insurance cover while you’re working on a booking.
What we ask: a minimum of 1 year’s professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS (we can help arrange this), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. You do not need to be tied to fixed shifts — you pick the hours and neighbourhoods that suit you, whether that’s across central Wednesbury or elsewhere in the West Midlands.
How to join: applying takes minutes. Create a profile, upload your documents and references, and once verified your profile typically goes live within days. PrimeCarers then introduces you to families and manages the practical admin so you can focus on care.
