Choosing supported living
Supported living is your own home, usually a flat or shared house, with support staff who help you live as independently as you can. It is often used by adults with a learning disability, autism or mental health needs.
Things to check
- Ask who owns or rents the home, and what your tenancy rights are.
- Ask what support is included, when staff are on site and what happens at night.
- Ask how you are involved in planning your own support.
- Read the latest CQC report for the care provider.
Whoever ends up paying, you can ask your council’s adult social care team for a free assessment of what help you need. Our guide explains what to expect and what to ask.
