Meet The Manager
Jacob Mante is Home Manager at Ivy Grove.
I share Care UK’s ethos, and I am proud to be a part of the Ivy Grove’s family.
My experience working as a General Manager at Ivy Grove has been very fulfilling. I work closely with my team to deliver high-quality care and a person-centred lifestyle to all of our residents at the home.
I hold a graduate diploma in law, and I am proud to have achieved a 1st class degree in nursing. In this role, it is important to have good interpersonal skills, empathy, and to be transparent in everything that I do. My favourite part of the day is when I start in the morning and interact with my team and the residents—it’s always nice to see smiles on the residents' faces at the start of the day.
Outside of work, I play football, tennis, and rugby with my friends. I also look forward to spending time with my children and being a part of the activities that they are in.
Ivy Grove in Chingford is a luxurious care home that offers the ideal setting for personalised care of the highest standard. The dedicated team provides residential and dementia care on a permanent or short-term basis.
The home boasts a stunning collection of en-suite bedrooms as well as excellent shared facilities for residents to enjoy including stylish lounges, a welcoming café and a hair and beauty salon. The landscaped garden is a beautiful space for peaceful relaxation.
The team take pride in living up to the excellent reputation they have built within the local community, and the General Manager and senior team are always keeping up-to-date with the latest training and knowledge to ensure residents always receive the best care.
