At Willett House, every member of our team works together, constantly prioritizing our residents' well-being and comfort. Our dedicated carers in each wing foster meaningful relationships with residents, providing the familiarity and stability essential for those living with dementia. As Marie Roe, our Clinical Lead, puts it, "Willett House is a sanctuary where nurturing connections and creating a sense of security is at the heart of our daily care."
We provide a comprehensive range of care services across our five homes, tailored to meet the varying needs of older adults. Four of our homes offer full nursing care for individuals who are elderly, frail, or living with dementia, delivered by skilled nursing teams in a safe and supportive environment. Our fifth home specialises in residential care for those living with dementia and physical disabilities, focusing on personalised support that promotes comfort, dignity, and quality of life.

Life at Willett House
Our thoughtfully-designed, two-story haven caters to the distinct needs of our residents. Four intimate wings each feature their own lounge, dining area, accessible bathrooms, nursing office, and kitchenette.

I started my journey at Elmwood Nursing Home, part of Mission Care, as a Nurse in 2014, working on the EMI floor. Over the years, I progressed to Senior Nurse and later took on the role of Clinical Lead. In May 2024, I proudly acquired the position of Home Manager at Willett House Nursing Home.
Mission Care, our leading care provider, places a strong emphasis on the growth and development of every staff member. Since joining Mission Care, I’ve actively participated in various professional and learning programs, including level 5 Best Interest Assessments, DOLS, and Skills For Care’s Well Led Course.
As a Nurse, I find joy in understanding my residents needs and delivering personalised care. Witnessing hope and smiles on their faces is my ultimate reward. During my time at Mission Care, I’ve explored various career paths and observed the transition from paper-based documentation to the digital care planning tool, Care Vision. This shift has allowed us to more efficiently address the diverse nursing needs of our residents.Our commitment remains steadfast: providing the best care and support for our residents and their families, while actively involving other team members.
At Willett House, our residents are at the heart of everything we do. Our Senior Management Team is exceptionally supportive and approachable. When I stepped into the role of Home Manager, I was deeply moved by the care and guidance provided to me. Working with our Care Home team brings immense satisfaction, knowing that I contribute to enhancing someone’s life and witnessing the smiles on our residents’ faces. Willett House feels like one big, supportive family.
