Good Morning! We started out with our workout! Today we did a short but eventful workout! Rose is one of our residents who attends the workout daily! She loves to be active and walk around so its important for her to keep her strength up, so she can keep being active longer!

After Breakfast this morning, our Happiness Director Ashley spent some time in the Mary B's neighborhood with Sally! Sally and Ashley are excited for the weather to warm up! So much so we celebrated the first day of spring by coloring some flowers and birds! We can't wait to get outside and plant some flowers!

Same as my comments last month. Understood we'd be given a monthly report but haven't received any. Have to assume there's no issues we should know about.

During a time of need and stress for me, Bickford remains our calm in a storm for mom.

Staff is outstanding!


Feb 3, 2023

As my mother transitions to the next stage I am so very thankful to the staff at Bickford for their love, care and compassion for her.

I just wish there was better communication and occasional updates on how my dad is doing. I have no idea other than my interaction with him 1-2 times per week. If staff notices changes in my loved one, it should be reported and I wish someone would let me know. I called with concerns on what I thought was my dads worsening condition but I wish it was the other way around.

. Bickford continues to be the answer my mom needed. Couldn't ask for more.
