At Care1 Professional offers personalised, compassionate supported living for adults in Inverclyde & across Scotland
Supported living you can rely on
At Care1 Professional, we believe everyone deserves to live with dignity, choice and independence. Our supported living service supports vulnerable adults across Inverclyde and throughout Scotland to thrive in their own homes. Whether you’re in Greenock, Port Glasgow, Gourock or elsewhere in Inverclyde, we’re here to help.
Our approach is warm, professional and deeply rooted in local knowledge. We understand the unique challenges and strengths of communities in Strathclyde, and we design support around you, not the other way around.
What is supported living?
Supported living is designed to help adults live as independently as possible — with just the right level of support to stay safe, confident and connected. Unlike residential care, supported living means you live in your own home — with flexible assistance that fits your needs and lifestyle.
At Care1 Professional, we offer supported living services across Inverclyde and throughout Scotland, helping people with learning disabilities, mental health needs, autism, physical disabilities and other support needs enjoy meaningful, independent lives.
At Care1 Professional, our supported living often includes:
One-to-One help (As Needed)
We provide tailored, one-to-one support so you always get help from someone who understands your needs, preferences, and routines. Whether you need assistance a few hours a week or around the clock, our local support workers in Greenock, Gourock, and Port Glasgow are ready to assist.
Overnight or 24/7 support
For those who need reassurance or regular care throughout the day and night, we offer waking-night or sleep-in staff who are always nearby to respond quickly. You’ll never feel alone — knowing help is there when you need it most.
Help managing your tenancy and home
We’ll support you with everything from reading letters and managing bills to reporting repairs and communicating with landlords or housing associations like River Clyde Homes or Cloch Housing. Our goal is to help you feel confident maintaining your home and tenancy.
Support with finances, budgeting & bills
Managing money can be stressful — but we can make it easier. We help with budgeting, setting up direct debits, keeping track of expenses, and accessing benefits or financial advice. With our support, you’ll stay in control of your finances and avoid unnecessary worry.
Assistance with personal care & health needs
Our team offers discreet, compassionate help with personal care tasks like washing, dressing, or medication prompts. We can also help you attend GP or hospital appointments in Inverclyde or nearby areas, ensuring your health and dignity are always a priority.
Social support, hobbies & community connection
Life isn’t just about tasks — it’s about belonging. We’ll help you find local groups, hobbies, or activities that bring joy and connection — from walking clubs along the Esplanade in Greenock to art groups or community cafés. Supported living is about helping you live well, not just live.

FAQs — Supported Living in Inverclyde & Scotland
Adults who require support with daily living tasks (e.g. personal care, budgeting, tenancy duties) but want to maintain independence. Eligibility often involves assessment via social services or the HSCP in Inverclyde or your local council.
Many placements are funded through local authority social care budgets, Self-Directed Support (SDS), or via Health and Social Care Partnerships. We help you and your social worker explore the right funding option.
Not at all. We aim to support people in or near their current towns — Greenock, Port Glasgow, Gourock, etc. If a different property is needed, we strive to keep you connected to your existing community.
Yes. We regularly review support plans and can scale them up or down as needed. If your needs change — due to health, life events, or goals — your care adjusts accordingly.
That’s excellent — in many cases we can deliver support in your existing home, helping with adaptations and liaising with your landlord if needed.
