Bickford Senior Living

Bickford is a very nice place and the staff here is wonderful. They are great with communication. The facility is always clean and seem to be well organized. They have come through for us when we needed something.

They really like to keep the residents active here. The facility is always clean and seems to be well organized. There is always a lot of hustle and bustle going on. The staff here is always polite and very friendly.

So far so good at Sunrise of Bexley. We have been busy getting dad settled in. He has some specific needs that we have had to remind him of. There has been some small confusion about medication but we have gotten all of that worked out. The social interaction has been pretty good at this facility. The residents don't go scatter off in their own area. Dad has made some acquaintances here. Overall I am really pleased with how things have gone so far.

Bickford of Carmel is exceptional. The staff is very well trained on dementia and it is reassuring knowing that if my loved one declines, they will not need to leave the facility. Bickford will work with us on the additional care. We enjoy that the building is one level and smaller than more in the area. It is obvious residents receive care and attention a lot quicker this way. They are also pet friendly which my loved one LOVES! I have recommended Bickford and will continue to do so.

I moved my dad to Bickford a month ago. So far I have been very pleased. The staff is very friendly and helpful. I live out of state and had to find an assisted living place in a couple days time after my dad ended up in the hospital. I really like the fact that it is one level and laid out in a square. The other places I looked at, the apartments were on upper floors with elevators. My dad has dementia and I didn't think he could find his way around those places as well. Plus I like the security coded doors. I know dad can not wander out. The rooms are smaller and more expensive than the other places I looked at. The overall environment is very pleasant. The residents seem happy there.

Mom was only there at Bickford of Davenport for five days. The experience was good, but she needed to get stable on her medication to sleep more and help with her agitation. She is in a locked facility specifically for dementia now. Bickford of Davenport was good but I think the care mom needed was beyond what they were able to offer. I loved the place. The administrator was great, staff was great, etc. I really wish it would have worked out for mom to stay there.

The service and attentiveness of the staff at Sunrise in the onset was remarkable. They did more than accommodate me, they made a uncertain situation more assuring experience. To this date I have been very satisfied with my mother being there.

So far they are doing a very good job. It's kept pretty clean. They call me about any incident. The food is really the only thing that is an issue. We went and ate dinner with her, and it was a corn dog and canned beets and tater tots. They only have private rooms, and it's a nice room. The people are wonderful, super friendly and nice, and they go out of their way to do so. They do arts and crafts, and even have musicians come in. I like the concept that they have with all the different levels of care.

My mother is legally blind and can't hear very well either, so it is understandably a difficult situation to get her acclimated and involved. But the staff at Bickford of Peoria have really gone out of their way to help my family with our predicaments. They have been very accommodating, and are always on top of any issues. Bickford of Peoria truly is a lovely place and we are very thankful for it!

Really liked but was pricey, a lot more than what Mom pays now. I did not get a chance to see any of the activities though.

nurses were out helping residents, lots of activities.nice room sizes.

We are very happy with Sunrise. The women keep complaining about being bored. I would like to see some more activities. I love the director, I just think they need more. The physical space was very important. It's small and lighter and cheerier, and happiest, than the other places we saw. The people that work there, are very understanding and are very good. I am quite pleased by that. There are little things, every once in a while they miss little things.

My mother has Alzheimer's disease and could no longer care for herself. We were able to get her in immediately and the care she receives is outstanding. She loves all the caregivers there and is safe in her own surroundings. I am worrying less and getting more rest knowing she is well cared for.

My sister and I checked out many residences for our mom before we decided on the Bickford of St. Charles, Il. The staff there was very friendly and informative when we toured the facility. The place is very clean and feels like an elegant but comfortable home with lots of open gathering spaces and a number of cozy fireplaces. The dining room is decorated very comfortably and each resident is given a menu to choose their meals from. The floor plans for each apartment are roomy and laid out for the convenience of the person living there. The fact that you bring your own furniture to your apartment makes it feel more like home. The rooms have big, bright windows that allow a lot of natural light to enter your space. Housekeeping and laundry service are also provided witch makes it easy for your loved one to live hassle free. Our mom has only been here for two weeks and she is having a few problems with adjusting to her new surroundings but the staff is helping her with that. She is 89 years old and until now has lived on her own. She also has some dementia so things are a little difficult for her, but my sister and I are sure we made the best choice for our moms health, safety, and well being by choosing the Bickford.

IT was a very good tour. We did not choose this location because they had a waiting list. It is also a large facility

Administration has been weird since they are trying to hire a new manager there. But they are getting better but they have been helpful. Food dad says is great. They been working with what dad makes and once his VA paperwork is finally done. They lost it during management change. I just got it back last week. Then his rent with go up. It's been a high turnover since January when he moved in.

The staff, specifically [name removed], did a great job hosting us and made my mom, who was very uncomfortable with the idea of living at an assisted living facility, feel comfortable and more relaxed. We really appreciated the time and attention of everyone at Bickford.

The staff care is highly personalized with only about 35 residents. The staff is friendly and attentive and there are different activities each day.

Bickford is older, and perhaps slightly more worn than most of the places I've looked at, but what they call apartments, are actually small apartments with separate rooms. I find that very appealing, in that it feels more like a complete home within the apartment. And, there is a possibility that I will be able to secure a bathtub for my mother within the facility. The only one that I found so far, and it is an important detail for her. Everyone that I spoke with there was very friendly and informative. and because they do not separate senior living, assisted living and memory Care, it seems to me that it will be a better overall environment for my mother who is slipping into substantial memory problems, because she will be provided a greater opportunity to interact with other people at varying levels. Overall, I was very impressed with Bickford.

Love that you stay in your apartment even if you need to start getting memory care. No separate wing/ floor for memory care. Small enough facility that the administrators know every resident very well and are available daily
