Questions families ask
How do they assess whether someone needs care?
They carry out a full assessment to determine which type of care is best suited to the person or their loved one, including when difficulties with daily tasks, memory or personal wellbeing arise.
Can residents keep their own GP?
Yes, provided the GP is within the home's catchment area. Otherwise, the home can recommend suitable GPs in the local area.
Can residents bring their own furniture and personal items?
Yes. Residents can bring soft furnishings, photographs and other personal possessions, provided the items pass a fire safety risk assessment carried out by the home staff.
Are activities tailored to each resident?
Yes. Each home has at least one activities coordinator, and activities are tailored to residents so they can participate according to their interests and abilities.
How much does Greenacres Residential Care Home cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask Greenacres Residential Care Home for its weekly fee. As a guide, Wigan council paid on average £807 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.
