(Name Removed) had made a HUGE difference. Kudos to him. He's making progress.

Could give a higher score if changes are made. If Bickford would supply the sheets, it would make a great improvement. I am buying new sheets every week even though our sheets are NOT supposed to leave his room as I am doing his laundry. They are not supposed to be removed from his room. They are not common property. I raised the score because the new director is trying to make improvements in training and consistency of staff however they need more supervision

I don't like not knowing management staff is going to leave. I email them, they don't respond, then I find out they're leaving. So then I have to make sure I send messages again to someone else.

Staffing seems low still. Mom has fallen twice in the last week. Sick of cutting my visits short because of the resident's dog that interferes with it. (Name Removed) seems to be trying and making changes.

My mom passed away a week ago today at the Bickford of gurnee. It was not unexpected. I'm so very grateful for all of the fine care she has received in the last year and a half. I couldn't have asked for finer care. Thank you so much.

Memory Care is understaffed. Memory Care is FILTHY. This weekend a window in the common area of Memory Care was wide open, it was 30 degrees out.

My father has been sick for over 2 weeks and not one person notified me of his condition, as I am home recovering from major surgery, I cannot go the the facility. His room, bathroom, bed and floor all had fecies and was not cleaned. I was notified of this by my brother who visited today. Yet, Bickford has no problem raising prices by 8%, and cutting care for my father by 80%! Totally unacceptable!! Changes need to be made immediately or our family will be looking for another care center for my father going forward.

Staff up already!!!! Stop telling us you are hiring yet you are short staffed. Mom fell again thanks to low staff.

Communications are weak at best. After mom's latest incident, I am very concerned.

Mom is safe so I am happy. One of your residents has a dog that does not like me for some reason (I have dogs too). That dog makes me very uncomfortable for my safety and it is unfair I have to feel that way.
