Supported Living Insurance
Supported living provides care services for vulnerable people living independently. These can be older people, young adults, or adults with special needs or disabilities who do not have access to regular care.
Managing a supported living facility involves many responsibilities, compliance obligations, and risks. Supported living insurance protects such facilities against existing and evolving risks.

What is supported living insurance?
Supported or assisted living insurance is a critical form of coverage to consider, designed for organisations providing care to vulnerable sections of society in supported living facilities. It caters to the complex insurance requirements of supported living providers.
What can your Supported Living insurance cover?
A supported living insurance policy can cover various aspects, considering the diverse needs of these facility providers. But in most cases, the nature of the business, its assets, liabilities, and how it delivers its services will dictate the exact policy configuration.
Supported living insurance or assisted living insurance usually covers the following:
- Property damage: Cost of property repair against damage from fire, vandalism, and extreme weather events.
- Treatment risk: Service user’s claim for negligence or malpractice due to any adverse reactions caused by treatments received from the facility.
- Abuse claims: Claims by any service user on account of alleged abuse at the facility.
- Professional indemnity: Potential lawsuits of professional negligence by service users and their families.
- Employers’ liability: Compensation claim by any employee or volunteer due to work-related injuries or illnesses.
- Public liability: Compensationclaim by any member of the public or third-party member who is injured or has property damaged.
- Book debts: Financial losses due to unpaid fees or outstanding debts owed to the facility for services rendered.
