Meet The Manager
Brighton Nyagomo is General Manager at Tennyson Grange.
I have over 20 years of experience as a Nurse and five years of experience in management. I joined Care UK because I believe its reputation for providing the highest quality care complements my commitment to providing compassionate and individualised care.
I’m proud to make a difference in the lives of residents and colleagues at Tennyson Grange. I find it so rewarding when I see that residents are happy and well looked after and team members are engaged and cheerful.
I look forward to leading and empowering a team dedicated to learning and improving the quality of life for residents at Tennyson Grange. I also look forward to developing good working relationships with relatives, commissioning bodies and the CQC.
Tennyson Grange is located in a quiet London suburb, just a short walk from a range of amenities. The dedicated team provides respite or permanent person-centred residential, nursing and dementia care.
The purpose-built home delivers luxury throughout, from bright dining rooms to stylish lounges and even a hair and beauty salon. The home's excellent, modern facilities also include a café and cinema room, as well as stunning gardens, a courtyard and terrace which offer a peaceful environment for relaxing with loved ones.
Residents will enjoy a varied activity programme tailored to their interests, as well as minibus outings to local areas of interest. The home's location offers excellent rail and road connections to London and the South.
