Our homemade food here at Bickford is something our kitchen takes pride in. Meals are a time to socialize with each other and enjoy the ambiance of our dining room. We encourage family members to share in this experience. We have not increased our guest meal charges for a few years now. Starting February 1st, our meal charges will increase by fifty cents. Our breakfast is now $5.50, noon meal $7.50, and our evening meals are $6.00. We encourage any group over 5 guests to give us advance notice, and we can set up our private dining room to enjoy your meal experience

Are you caring for a loved one with a form of dementia? At Bickford our memory care unit is designed as a more intimate setting that has been found to decrease anxiety and frustration in those with dementia. We utilize the "whole-home" concept with the resident apartments being used as a bedroom and the living room, kitchen, and dining area carrying that intimate setting over to encourage increased interaction. We currently have an open apartment if you have a loved one that could benefit from 24/7 care in a warm caring environment, we might be the answer you have been looking for. Call today to tour, ask for Kim. 708-845-5490

https://www.thegoodcaregroup.com/news/elderly-couples-living-together-importance-companionship/ Elderly couples living together: the importance of companionship Elderly couples rely on each other for care and companionship. The time couples spend together is precious – not just from an emotional perspective, but also in terms of physical and cognitive health. Find out why staying together is so important, and how couples can arrange care that supports both their needs at home. Why it's so important to keep elderly couples living together Physical health Elderly couples tend to care for each other. If one's required to leave, the other's health is likely to deteriorate in ways you might not have predicted. For instance, if the person entering residential care was the main cook, their partner may become malnourished as they struggle to adapt to feeding themselves. Difficulties with mobility can also prevent separated couples from visiting each other, leading to unnecessary distress. Cognitive health In the short-term, being separated from a partner can result in feelings of stress and anxiety for both parties. In the long-term, this can develop into profound loneliness; a condition which affects cognitive health, as well as increasing the risk of heart disease and strokes. The familiarity that comes with staying together can also help people with dementia keep calm and engaged.
