Care Homes and Supported Living​

If living at home is becoming difficult, there are different housing and care options available. Care homes provide accommodation and round-the-clock support for people who need a higher level of care, while supported living and extra care housing allow people to have their own home with access to support when they need it. This page helps residents choose the option that best meets their care and support needs.

• Care Homes – Residential settings that provide accommodation, personal care and support for people who are no longer able to live independently or whose care needs cannot be met at home.
• Supported Living and Extra Care Housing – Accommodation options that enable people to live more independently while still having access to care and support when needed. These services are designed to help people maintain control over their lives while receiving the assistance they require.​
