How long can respite care at Astbury Mere last?
Respite stays start from a minimum of one week, but the length is flexible and can be tailored to the person’s circumstances.
Is a pre-admission assessment needed for respite care?
Yes. The team carries out a pre-admission assessment to ensure it can provide the right level of care from the start.
How much does Astbury Mere Care Home cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask Astbury Mere Care Home for its weekly fee. As a guide, Cheshire East council paid on average £1,055 a week for a nursing care place for people aged 65 and over in 2024-2025, against £1,102 across England (GOV.UK adult social care finance report). People who pay for their own care are usually charged more than councils pay.
