Loving Environment
reviewed on: 02/07/2017 by AnonymousMy mother is doing well here at this community. They have a phenomenal staff. They are taking very good care of her, and her needs. I'am comfortable with the care she is receiving, she is in good hands. This community has a good, homey atmosphere. They do a great job with the cleanliness of the facility. It is a great, loving environment. I couldn't ask for a better community for my mother. I have already recommended this community to my friends, it is a great place.
memory care
reviewed on: 05/24/2015 by AnonymousBickford has the best staff in the memory care unit. They truly care about the people and are always supportive to those coming in to visit. I can't say enough about the people. They helped us thru some difficult times and were always calm and patient with mom. I would recommend that you go in and meet with the care team to assess if they will meet the needs for your loved one. Memory is a hard issue and you want to find the right group for you. We wanted a place that would truly check on our mom regularly so she felt safe and that people stopped to visit. An outside area was also important. They try to keep up with activities for everyone, but there are so many different levels of care in there that sometimes it is hard to meet everyone specific activity needs. They do try to get everyone together daily for things.
Beautiful facility!
reviewed on: 05/11/2017 by AnonymousFrom what I saw, this was a nice facility! I loved the staff, as they were very welcoming! The rooms were absolutely beautiful! The food was also great,! The chef was very nice when he came to speak to us! In the end, the location is the only reason why we didn't choose this location, but it was still fantastic!
