Your loved one deserves to live the best life possible

Watch your loved one thrive in an environment that feels like home

Navigating the aging journey is difficult.

We understand what’s at stake here: it’s not just someone, it’s your loved one.

Meanwhile, it’s on you to make the difficult decisions.

There's a Higher Path for our seniors

The Senior's Journey

There are two paths that seniors take as they age: the lower path and the higher path

Senior care today is reactive, expensive, and siloed. It’s a sick-care system, not a health-care system (designed to keep seniors healthy). Most of us have accepted this status quo because it feels too big and complex to change. Not us. We’re taking the road less traveled and championing a higher standard of senior care.

When Garret first moved in, he was really struggling with his mobility and frequent falls. He has been working so hard with Hannah and Adam with Fox Rehab, and he’s now able to walk to the dining room and back to his apartment EVERY SINGLE DAY!! Garret, we are so proud of the work you are putting in to increase your independence! #higherpathsuccessstory #bickfordseniorliving #bickfordassistedliving #foxrehab #whateverittakes

Bickford. Coffee Shop open for business again today. Coffee Cocoa and Chocolate Chip Miffins fresh from the oven. A fun round of Christmas Trivia. It's surprising the things we remember.

Katrina & Hailie are getting the ladies ready for lunch. Karen said she would smile if she could have another muffin. She's so funny.

I am so happy to have found bickford of Marion. Seriously, the staff there goes above and beyond. As a teacher, I get how hard it is to meet the individual needs of a number of people, but the Marion staff does exactly that and I feel so blessed to have them looking after my mom.

When I picked up Mom for doc appointment she was very disheveled. Hair not combed, dirty clothes & one sock.

How you got her back to normal after her Covid event was simply miraculous and I'm extremely grateful. She loves you guys like family and was happy to be back at home. I'm always amazed that all those who work there are so committed to making life happy and comfortable for all your seniors. If the nation was filled with people you hire we'd have a much calmer and nicer society! Thank you for all you do!

Food has been "just okay" per my mom. Everything else is great!

You're in luck... the text I wrote was too long, and it bounced back!! It wasn't a complaint, it was me musing about life. Bickford is great!

Staff wanted to be safe, so called me that dad wasn't feeling or acting normal. He ended up being very sick, and needed to be hospitalized. I'm certain that their attention and quick action saved his life.
