I'm am so very thankful that Bickford of Bexley Assisted Living and Memory Care has TWO pianos! When our Birthday Wednesday Concert is impeded by a broken foot pedal on the 1st floor, no worries, we'll just head to the 3rd floor! Thank you Wade Jones for entertaining us once again, and I promise to get the pedal fixed before next time!

Montessori living at Bickford of Bexley Assisted Living and Memory Care is a person-centered, strengths-based approach focusing on independence, dignity, and purposeful engagement. This purposeful engagement can be setting the tables, a resident led Bible study, or being a part of the Birthday Committe to help make cookies or cupcakes for the birthdays of the month. Even providing a craft like flower arranging gives the residents a sense of independence in decorating their own dining room.

We love our team! Despite a Level 3 snow emergency, every single nurse, care team member and kitchen crew member made it to work today! They are living our Bickford commitment to “whatever it takes.” #dedication #grit #essentialworkers #winterstormfern

Thanks to YouTube, we don't need an in-person Zumba instructor to get in a fun and productive workout at Bickford of Bexley Assisted Living and Memory Care! All the residents pushed themselves to the fast paced musical routines, yet had a ball all at the same time!

Mary Bickford was a smart woman! She knew that January is a cold and dreary month, so what better way to warm us up, then by throwing a luau party! And at Bickford of Bexley Assisted Living and Memory Care, that's exactly what we did! From serving treats like fresh pineapple and macadamian nuts to watching an authentic luau and learning a bit of Hawaiian culture, a great time was had by all!

A big thank you goes to Bexley Library for putting on free workshops for the community.

Bickford of Bexley Assisted Living and Memory Care has their very on "store" called the Bickford Boutique!

The BEST part is that the residents who don't get out, can get things they want and need!
