Description
Are you an experienced carer in Widmore who specialises in supporting people living with dementia at home? PrimeCarers connects self‑employed carers with local families who want patient, routine‑based care that keeps loved ones in familiar surroundings. Right now, 190 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.
Work typically involves companionship, help with personal care, supporting daily routines, medication prompts and gentle encouragement to take part in activities that reduce anxiety and maintain independence. You’ll be helping people remain safe and calm at home — perhaps keeping a familiar morning routine, using visual cues, or guiding mealtimes so the day stays predictable.
This role suits carers who have the patience to repeat tasks kindly, who value continuity and can spot small changes in mood or function. If you’re used to building trusting relationships, explaining things clearly and adjusting pace to the person in front of you, you’ll fit well. Opportunities in Widmore and the surrounding area, including Widmore Green, Bromley Common, Bickley, Chinbrook, Grove Park and Beckenham, often need carers with dementia experience to provide consistent, longer‑term support rather than short one‑off visits. You’ll see Bromley families on our platform too.
As a self‑employed carer on PrimeCarers you set your own rate and choose your clients, hours and service area — typical pay sits around £18.80–£20 per hour. We find clients for you and take care of contracts, invoicing and payments, and insurance is included while you work. Some carers offer hourly care; others prefer live‑in patterns. Typical ranges for these are £18.80–£20 per hour and £145–£160 per day respectively.
To register you’ll need at least 1 year of professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS check (we can help arrange this), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. We verify applicants, and profiles usually go live within days of verification. Applying takes minutes and the profile setup guides you through each requirement.
PrimeCarers is designed for carers who are ready to move away from agency shifts and manage their own time and relationships with clients. You remain self‑employed: choose who you work with, pick hours that suit you, and keep control of how you deliver care. If you want meaningful dementia work in Widmore that values routine, patience and continuity, creating a profile is the first step.
