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.

Shamillah prepared and cooked delicious and interesting meals for Dad, and coaxed him to eat & drink, even when he was reluctant to do so.

Shamillah provided live-in care for my 89 year old father in 2019, and I have no hesitation in giving her a 5-star review. She was extremely conscientious and diligent in all aspects of her role, and was great at communicating with us. Shamillah prepared and cooked delicious and interesting meals for Dad, and coaxed…

Pordou is very patient with Dad who can be very difficult and she remains cheerful when going about her duties.

Pordou has been caring for my father for about a month. When I was searching for a carer, I was drawn to her friendly face and thought she looked caring. My first impression was right . She travels by public transport, which can sometimes take a while, but is always reliable. She does exactly what we ask of her and…

We couldn't have hoped for more positive, supportive and pleasurable care experience.

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.
