10 of the 12 with grades from the Care Inspectorate (83%) have Good, Very good or Excellent as their lowest grade across the key questions graded. 2 have no grades shown, usually because the Care Inspectorate has not graded them yet. Care Inspectorate data as at 31 August 2026.

How do I choose a supported living service in Midlothian?
Start with the help the person needs now and might need later, and shortlist a few services near the people who will visit. Check each one’s latest Care Inspectorate grades and how old it is, read its latest inspection report, and where you can, visit or meet the team more than once before you decide. Ask what is included in the fees and what happens if needs change. This is general information, not advice.
Who pays for care in Midlothian?
It depends on the person’s needs and finances. Some people pay for all of their own care, some get help from their council, and the NHS pays for some health care. The first step is to ask your local council for a free assessment of care needs: that is the council’s social work service. We do not show prices and this is general information, not advice.
How up to date is this information?

Choosing supported living
Housing support is help to live in your own home, a flat or shared house, from support staff who help you live as independently as you can. We list it here as supported living. 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 Care Inspectorate 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.
