exceptional care in a family environment

The staff is truly tremendous and go above and beyond to care for their patients, and I'm not just saying that because it sounds like. I can't express how safe and comfortable my mother and I both feel with her as a resident of Bickford. It's truly a family atmosphere where she is receiving exceptional care daily.

Highly recommend

They work hard to socialize the residents with games, news, and other activities. The residents are never left alone in their rooms except to sleep at night. I do not think it is possible to improve on the food. It is ample, and healthy. But cooking for so many people limits how wonderful and tasty the food can be.

Smaller Community works for my brother, David.

We had toured other facilities that were very nice, but they had more rooms and also had multiple floors. My brother was afraid he might get lost in the larger facilities. When we toured Bickford we were told that there were only 37 beds in Bickford. My brother wanted to sign the papers right away. He felt that this was a place that he could really call home. It was really clean and had a cheery atmosphere. The staff were very helpful and had great interactions with the residents. My brother couldn't be happier at Bickford. This is facility will be there for him as his dementia progresses.

Overall a great place with potential for improvements

Outside building needs to be cleaned up much more frequently. It's the first impressions that are memorable. Unfortunately, it is in a more industrial area, so litter ends up blowing on the property. Need to fix the TV's in the communal corners. Hope for perfection, expect multiple learning curves. Advocate for your loved one and approach it with gentle kindness and understanding. Administration always have an open door for walk-in's to discuss concerns and are excellent with collaboration with family to come up with workable solutions. Residents complain food isn't hot enough. Little to no snacks available outside mealtimes-should be available every single day if you boast about having them. They need an exercise room for regular use and physical therapy Overall a great place. Small single level quaint place. Loved one cannot get lost.

Bickford felt like home from the first visit. Supportive staff, very clean and modern looking, lots of activities throughout the day, although my mom was not a big eater the food looked and smelled appetizing. When my mom was hospitalized, staff called several times to check up on her showing their concern.
