She kept her mind active and by playing games such as dominoes, she also instituted a movie night, which my mother still enjoys.

Vetted means we check identity and right to work and require an enhanced DBS certificate before a carer can use the platform, and we interview carers about their experience and approach to care. You choose your carer, and remain responsible for checking their skills, training and documents suit your needs. See what we check, and what you check.

Dec 2025

She listened diligently to what my mother wanted/was saying and always managed to come up with a solution that seemed to placate her.

I cannot speak highly enough of Magreth. She looked after my mother so well for six or so months, and she loved her. "She (Magreth) has a lovely smile", she used to say. Magreth is kind, good fun, and very good at soothing anxious people. She has a great sense of humour. She listened diligently to what my mother…

The Checks

How Do We Check
Private Carers?

Full ID Check

A Full ID check including right to work in the UK. We use a government approved service called Yoti to verify carer ID applications online.

Enhanced DBS Certificate

We ask carers on the platform to hold an enhanced DBS certificate on the update service, and we re-check those certificates against the update service for any new items.

Professional Interview

We interview every carer online to understand their experience, communication style and approach to care. This is not a clinical assessment or a guarantee of suitability. Check a carer’s skills, experience and training with them before booking.

PrimeCarers is an introductory platform and does not provide, manage, supervise or clinically assess care.

Clients remain responsible for checking carer documentation, interviewing carers, checking suitability for their specific needs, and agreeing the scope of care directly with the carer.

See every check carers complete in the checks carers complete.
