PositiveThis was the first facility that we looked at. And the bar was set extremely high. It is so beautiful there and everyone is so friendly. We still have a few others to look at, but Bickford Still Remains our number one choice.

★★★★★
PositiveBeautifully kept. Residents seemed contented. Saw medium sized apts. Although very small, they had windows, walk-in shower, and room enough to keep items of use close at hand.
★★★★★
PositiveAs soon as I entered the building it felt like home. The atmosphere is very cozy and relaxed. The facility is clean, light and airy. All of the staff members I met were knowledgeable, friendly, and expressed genuine care and compassion for what they were doing. The Bickford House is at the top of my list for my loved one.
★★★★★
PositiveAll 5s. My mom has a wheat allergy and they have accommodated that well. She also takes a number of supplements prescribed by a doctor, but not prescriptions. They worked with us to manage that as well. Frequent communication and everyone is always so nice!

CriticalRelative was in memory care. Staff turn over was way too much and many times I visited the staff were standing around and on their phones. Relative’s clothes came back from laundry and mostly not hers. Sizes would not fit and belonged to someone else. I would find deep scratches and bruises on arms and hands and no one answered how they were there. The woman who runs the place keeps a loud barking dog in her office! My advice to anyone looking there is to turn around and run!!!

CriticalWe admitted our family member with a diagnosis of dementia and tests from a neuropsychologist. Later, we were informed the dementia was a problem, the deceptive sales pitch promised alot. Constantly understaffed and price gouging are common. The best part was the key fab. Also, they charge a daily rate but do substantially less activities/services on the weekends. The completely subjective process of evaluating your monthly services is unethical because they are short staffed and can't deliver the care that they up…
