Your loved one deserves to live the best life possible

Watch your loved one thrive in an environment that feels like home

Navigating the aging journey is difficult.

We understand what’s at stake here: it’s not just someone, it’s your loved one.

Meanwhile, it’s on you to make the difficult decisions.

There's a Higher Path for our seniors

The Senior's Journey

There are two paths that seniors take as they age: the lower path and the higher path

Senior care today is reactive, expensive, and siloed. It’s a sick-care system, not a health-care system (designed to keep seniors healthy). Most of us have accepted this status quo because it feels too big and complex to change. Not us. We’re taking the road less traveled and championing a higher standard of senior care.

Our Mary B’s residents found joy and purpose in making birdfeeders for their birdwatching activity. The creative project sparked enthusiasm and brought smiles as they eagerly crafted each feeder. It was a meaningful experience that encouraged connection with nature. Residents were excited to see the outcome and looked forward to spotting birds visiting their handmade feeders.

Today was a fun day! We played a lively game of ring toss, aiming to win a 2-liter bottle of pop. The laughter was nonstop, and the energy was high. Everyone had a turn and a fair shot at winning a refreshing drink. It was a simple yet joyful time filled with fun, smiles, and good vibes all around.

Our first outing of the month was the first annual fishing trip at Haithco Park, and it was incredible. The weather was perfect, the lake was peaceful, and the fish were biting. Everyone had a blast bonding, laughing, and enjoying nature. A memorable day that set the tone for summer! Thanks to our wonderful BFM shardae for all the help and fun times! You rock!

Watermelon Wednesday is here! Today, we gather on the patio to enjoy sweet, juicy watermelon under the summer sun. Laughter fills the air as everyone savors the refreshing taste. It's a perfect midweek treat, bringing friends and family together to relax, smile, and celebrate the simple joys of summer!!!

Taste Test Tuesday was a big hit! Everyone got to sample four fun flavors: Rainbow Brownie Kisses, Cookies and Cream Kisses, Birthday Cake Kisses, and Cinnamon Toast Crunch Kisses. While all the flavors were delicious, the votes came in strong. AL residents chose Rainbow Brownie Kisses as their favorite, while Mary B's group picked Cookies and Cream Kisses as the best chocolate kiss. It was a sweet success full of flavor and fun for everyone!

I love the caring staff from the top, (name removed), to the med techs to the caregivers. I wish I could name them all but my memory isn't that good

It's so easy to complain but instead I want to thank everyone, for digging deep for patience. Mom has tested everyone's patience the last couple of weeks but through it all, I still see the caring that makes you such a good team. Thank you

There are some amazing girls: (name removed) is amazing! (name removed) is a doll & good with mom, (name removed) is great, (name removed) is amazing, (name removed) is so good!! (name removed) is so good. (name removed) had mom last weekend when she reached to the first dose of antibiotics: bless her heart she stepped up! I had called and spoke to her and thanked her for her compassion. They need to remember to check her under breast and powder. I think most do but when I'm not there I don't know. The man in the amigo needs to slow down!! He also has rude tendencies if people are in his way. I know you can't control personality but I think you can control his "speed!" He thinks he owns the place! I noticed some burnt out lights in the car port. Need to remind not to flush the wipes! I put a note up in mom's bathroom. The clean up is better. I haven't found another big mess since the last one. Staff need to have a conversation about team work at meal time: set up/drink preparation. It should be all hands on deck once residents are at their tables. Get to table by 5:00, Sitting there waiting for water or coffee for over 20 minutes and 1/2 set tables isn't far to them. Then of course wait for the meal to be served, understand that. Time management seems very lacks on weekends. Thank you for doing what you can.

Everyone at Bickford is very caring. They are truly concerned for the residents. All big hearted people.

It seems there is a lot of issues on weekends with the staff and their time management. I've been there the last several Sunday afternoons. April 30 residents sat for dinner over 30 minutes with no water or coffee, 4 tables waited longer for food as 1/2 ate "some" kind of turkey meal. Staff stood around with no sense of order. All residents were at their tables... no pagers going off. Bedtime was about the same as always: come in, get her changed into bed 1/2 ass. No teeth brushed or face washed. Is that not part of nighttime protocol? Why does she have 300 points for toileting and some are not doing all required to do??? Morning's mom says they don't even pick/comb her hair out!! I see that when I come. They know she can't do that!! Heck they don't tidy the toilet up after an "accident". Mom won't ask, sometimes she may. I straighten her up and do the hygiene, I clean up. That's when I'm there!! When (name removed), (name removed)( tiny little gal long hair with red yes sir (name removed)(she's a med passer too), (name removed)( older gal), (name removed) have her it's so nice! I'm sorry I'm not good with all those names.

Thank you for being amazing. I wouldn't have been able to enjoy my recent vacation if I didn't have amazing people taking care of mom.

I appreciate all the hard work you have put into Bickford. Some things you've had to do a lot of us don't agree with but it's not your control. I'm concerned about the fact mom is not being checked under her breast when being cleaned up... she's has the "rash" that appears from warmth. There's a medicated powder someone ordered from Dr AND I have cornstarch powder in her bathroom/closet. Also the clean up in the bathroom... I have cleaning wipes in there and it should be automatic to wipe off the toilet seat AND grab bar!! As I stated before: I have found stool even on her personal wipe package! The girls need to slow down and do a visual check after toileting. Two minute wipe down! Mom is already embarrassed from having a mess they need to clean. It's all a process. Bless you for your dedication.

I really appreciate how the team there works together to give my mom such good care. And when I have questions, they sweetly answer them and get back to me immediately. Special shout-outs to (name removed).
