Our Community

Our cozy common areas are furnished to feel just like home, whether you’re laughing with friends in a game of noodle volleyball or savoring a made-from-scratch meal in the dining room. You’ll have the option to join in a variety of daily activities, special events, and outings around town through our Life Enrichment Program. Plus, Bickford loves animals! Bring your own pet, befriend one of the house pets, or enjoy animal therapy. We even offer pet care!

Our array of services is structured to provide for basic needs, personal care needs, and those intangible needs of the human spirit that support overall wellbeing. Residents receive the precise services for their unique situation, with a nurse-reviewed personal care plan and five distinct levels of care — from independent through advanced needs. It’s not uncommon for our staff to go above and beyond to make residents happy, like going for a walk with a former architect to see the condos he’d designed just down the street. He rejoiced in the opportunity to share his life’s work with staff! That is just one example of how we organize our planned activities suited to resident interests.

For more advanced personalized services, we can assist with such things as evening and morning routines, activities throughout the day, medication management, and more. All enjoy delicious, home-style meals made from scratch, with high-quality and fresh ingredients, in our dining area where residents gather and feast. Chaplain services are available on-site to provide warmth and comfort in times of need. Housekeeping, laundry, and maintenance services also ensure residents’ valuable time is always saved for what makes them happiest.

Our memory care program centers the well-being of residents who may have Alzheimer’s or dementia-related needs. With memory care, we offer specially designed areas with staff members who receive consistent training and are adept caregivers, while delivering companion services, reminiscence through familiar activities, or simply greeting a resident in the morning. We’re here, for you exclusively.

  • So far so good

    We chose Bickford because they had not had covid in quite a while and other people were not taking new residents because they had covid, and we wanted her protected so that is why we went with this facility. They took the right precautions to protect their residents. They take my phone calls whenever I call and they were good with communication. I haven't been in yet but we are having a good experience so far.

  • life after covid

    The community cut out a lot of the services they offered due to covid but then raised the price. They don't offer outside pharmacy services. Communication was good between the staff and our family but do not have a nurse on staff after 5 pm. I would recommend this community for an independent love one.
