Tendai Mangoro is Home Manager at Water Hall Care Home.
Warm and welcoming, with excellent facilities and exemplary standards in care, Water Hall is a beautiful care home in Bletchley, just outside of Milton Keynes.
The home provides a range of respite care and long-term residential, residential dementia, frail nursing and end of life care. Our kind and compassionate team provide outstanding care and work closely with Milton Keynes Hospital to provide rehabilitation care too.
Our care home has been purpose-built and thoughtfully created to offer residents the very best care, accommodation and lifestyle, with light and spacious communal areas and homely bedrooms, complete with en-suite bathrooms for privacy and independence. There really is something for everyone here, from interesting activities, an engaging and friendly community and team members who listen and care with their hearts.
It’s our team members, many of whom have been with us for years, and the unique people who live here who make Water Hall the wonderful place it is.
Dedicated and committed, our team live nearby in places like Leighton Buzzard, Lakes Estate and Newton Ley. This helps us to be at the heart of our local community, as well as caring for our residents in a way that encourages dignity and individuality.
As a family-owned care home, we understand that moving a loved one to a care home can be a difficult time for families. Our doors are always open at Water Hall. We have an anytime visiting policy and we encourage friends and family to get involved at every opportunity. We are always here to talk, listen and help put minds at rest, because residents’ families are part of our family too.
