Meet The Manager
Patience Mvubu is Home Manager at The Arkley Care Home.
This comfortable, happy home welcomes people with short and long-term care needs. This includes care for those living with Huntington’s or Parkinson’s, and care for dementia as a secondary condition.
The Arkley has a huge atrium with a glass roof, letting light pour into the social areas below. Among all the indoor palms, it feels like the perfect place to sit and enjoy tea and cake with a visitor.
Residents can get their hair done in our salon, chat with friends in the tea room and even get creative in our activity room before sitting down to a tasty lunch in one of our dining rooms.
