Dementia Support Carer Jobs in Wylde Green

Help people living with dementia stay safe and calm at home in Wylde Green. This role is about more than tasks: it’s patience, steady routines and keeping familiar surroundings comfortable. You’ll be supporting people to remain independent for as long as possible, working with families and tailoring care around a person’s history and preferences. Right now, 28 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

Typical dementia support includes companionship, prompts for personal care, meal support, medication reminders, helping maintain daily routines and noticing changes that need family or healthcare input. You’ll be expected to work with kindness and respect, using techniques that reduce distress and promote calm. Much of this work happens in people’s own homes across Wylde Green and nearby areas such as Boldmere, Maney, Walmley Ash, Driffold, Walmley and Thimble End in the West Midlands.

PrimeCarers connects you directly with families while you remain self-employed: you set your own rates, choose your clients, hours and service area. Typical pay for dementia support sits around £18.50–£20 per hour, with common hourly and live-in ranges shown as £18.50–£20 per hour and £145–£160 per day. PrimeCarers finds clients for you, handles contracts, invoicing and payments, and provides insurance cover while you’re working.

This opportunity suits experienced carers who value continuity and relationship-led support.

You’ll work closely with families to maintain routines, keep familiar objects in use and reduce unnecessary change.
