Questions families ask
Does Genesis Care Home offer nursing care?
No. Both homes provide residential care for people over 65 who need help with daily life, personal care and medication, but neither is a nursing home.
Do Genesis and Ashfields accept local authority funding?
Yes. They welcome both self-funding residents and those funded by the local authority, and explain how the arrangements work.
Can someone move straight from hospital into the home?
Yes. They regularly welcome people discharged from hospital, provided they do not need nursing care. Emergency stays may sometimes be available.
What is the difference between Genesis and Ashfields?
Genesis is a modern purpose-built home with 42 en-suite rooms, a lift and a bistro. Ashfields is a period house with a homely, close-knit feel.
How much does Genesis Care Home cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask Genesis Care Home for its weekly fee. As a guide, Cheshire East council paid on average £849 a week for a residential care place for people aged 65 and over in 2024-2025, against £982 across England (GOV.UK adult social care finance report). People who pay for their own care are usually charged more than councils pay.
