★★★★★
PositiveHe had a bad experience with first roommate. A few hiccups along the way. I believe they could some more help. They weren't using call lights. He fell and went to the hospital and needs more care than he can get at Bickford at this time. Overall, I would use their facility again.
★★★★★
CriticalI did not interact with staff. Just the intake person. Who is basically selling me the room and services. It appeared clean. In the areas I was in. He never actually moved in, he was placed on hospice care 2 days later. "Most places I have found what they sell and what you actually get are far apart." That was a quote from my cousin.
★★★★★
PositiveWe feel Bickford is a lovely memory care facility. Our mom has been there for 6 weeks. She calls it her home now. When we have had concerns they have been addressed in a timely manor. We have recommended to others.
★★★★★
PositiveIt is a well managed home with loving care. The team is very very attentive. The food was very nice. They had a nice variety of activities. The home was always very clean. I would highly recommend.
★★★★★
PositiveMy visit was excellent and very informative. The lady that explained the amenatives and conducted the tour was was very kind and understanding and so helpful.
★★★★★
PositiveThe only thing we really don't like is the lack of communication. There is very little communication about how our loved one is doing. We do not get any information, not even when there is a concern or doctor visit. Very clean place. And staff is friendly.
