Wonderful caring environment for loved ones

No experience with the meals and dining and when it comes to the activities, our loved one did not participate but there were many opportunities and other residents clearly enjoyed them. I wasn't involved in finances so I can't comment

Best choice for my mother.

My mother has been at BC for almost four months now and could not be happier. She says she feels like she’s living in a 5 star hotel. All of the staff are not only professional but kind & caring. My mother has been able to maintain her independence but with a sense that there are people around who care & will look out for her should she need some assistance. The dinning assures my siblings & myself that my mom is both getting proper nourishment & ample opportunity to socialize with her peers. Along with the activi

Kind and Caring staff

My mother has been at Bishop Commons for three months. Thus far she has been happier than she’s been for some time. She says she feels like she’s living in a 5 Star Hotel. Constantly commenting on kind and friendly all the staff are and how accommodating the dining staff are. My siblings and I feel very grateful that we found such a professional and well run facility for my mother to live in. Allowing her the feeling of independent living but with the safety net of staff that care and look out for the residents.

Uncle enjoys his time at Bishop Commons

My uncle is a very “happy camper” living his life at Bishop Commons. He enjoys his meals in the dinning room with his table mates. He enjoys walking around the facility. There are multiple opportunities to be involved with social activities. The staff is wonderful and extremely supportive. Always available to help or answer any questions we may have. I appreciate all that everyone does for my uncle. It’s comforting to know there are good people watching over him.

Truly a Place for Mom or Dad or Aunt....

I have been blessed with Bishop's Commons since 2012, when my mother moved in. In 2022, my husband and I moved his mother to Bishop's. And, finally, my husband and I moved his Aunt into Bishop's in August 2023. The care and compassion that my mother received at Bishop's surpassed my expectations. My relationship with her was strained; upon her arrival, Bishop's staff became the support she needed and the liaison I needed. It is sometimes difficult for aging parents to admit they need assistance with daily care or
