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 residents enjoyed a special outing today to visit our former resident and old friend, Coach Howard, who moved to a new community. As part of our Montessori philosophy, our residents choose where we go on our outings — and this week, Gail suggested we go see Coach. It was a heartwarming visit full of smiles and stories, and we’re already planning to go back! #OutingswithPurpose #FriendsforLife #HowieontheMove #BickfordSeniorLiving #HigherPath

It was a dog-gone good day at Bickford! All the pups stopped by for some love and attention, and our residents couldn’t have been happier. We’re proud to be a pet-friendly community—because moments like these bring comfort, joy, and a whole lot of tail wags to everyone who calls Bickford home. #PuppyLove #DogGoneWild #GoodBoy #PetFriendly #BickfordSeniorLiving #Higherpath

Our residents enjoyed a special lunch outing to Freemason Abbey today! They dressed in their best and spent the afternoon sharing great food, laughter, and meaningful connection. At Bickford of Suffolk, we believe life should be filled with moments like this — engaging experiences, supportive companionship, and opportunities to stay active in the community. #LunchBunch #FreemasonAbbey #NorfolkVA #Historic #BickfordSeniorLiving

I think they need an assistant activities director to fill the gap when (name removed) is off. I personally think they should have some type of activity most every day....including Saturday.

My mom says that the food could be more appetizing

Thanks for adding salmon to the Mary B meal rotation! It is delicious, good for brain health & easy to eat!

My mother seems very much at home at Bickford. Thanks for making that happen!

It just upsets me that she never seems happy with any of the food served. With the cost of the residence, I would hope that the meals would be of a higher quality. Other then that, she seems to enjoy all the staff and stays busy. Thanks

There should be more activities for memory care besides watching tv and sitting at the dining tables with books.

All of my complaints have to do with the dining room. Some days it's a surprise what the residents will eat. The menu hasn't been posted, or there is a change. There still isn't enough help passing out beverages and food. The meat is often tough. The cakes consistently are dry. The tables are not always set with enough silverware or glasses. The floor needs to be mopped more often. The addition of the handicapped people do help, and the tables are set when they come.
