Thank you to this St Francis third grade class for coming to carol for us! You guys were a delight to watch and really put us in the holiday spirit. Just in time for us to go on a tour of the town to see Christmas lights this evening!

Make new friends at Bickford Senior Living in Marshalltown! Friendship and purpose give meaning to our residents. It has certainly been our experience in senior living! In fact, many older adults move to a senior living community to meet people of the same age with similar interests. Becoming part of a community gives residents a sense of purpose while promoting physical activity and social participation in life enrichment activities. It’s a win-win. Call us today to visit our lovely community! 641-354-5996 As a matter of fact, stop by for lunch and enjoy a made from scratch meal!

We are so lucky here at Bickford of Marshalltown. We have a community that loves our residents as much as we do. Dean and Molly make it a point to come by every month and help the ladies of Bickford design a personalized seasonal necklace to keep. This month was Christmas theme and it brought SO much joy to everybody to get to come up with their own special design. Thank you always, Dean and Molly!

Being pampered by the fire? Yes please! BFM Nayeli is treating Connie to a fresh manicure this morning.

These ladies won so many goodies at Bingo today, that they opted to gift their blackout prize to a resident that hadn't won yet. The friendships that we see blossom at Bickford are heart warming. You will always find smiling faces and kind words with us.

At Bickford Assisted Living and Memory Care of Marshalltown, our nationally recognized approach to help your loved one live happier, healthier, and longer is called the Higher Path senior health model. Here at Bickford, we see something about your situation that other well senior care providers don’t. There are two paths that seniors take as they age the lower path and the higher path. On the Higher Path, our residents receive proactive care services; improving their quality of life so they can live happier, healthier and longer! Meet our Health and Wellness Director Trisha Patten. #higherpath

Are you wanting to spread a little more holiday cheer this season? We are short 17 Santa's for our residents! We have a list of wants and needs for each resident- we will provide the "Santa" with each resident's list, to keep shopping simple. If you wish to participate but don't have time to go shopping, please send us an email and we'd be happy to make a list for that resident on Amazon, where the items can be shipped directly to Bickford. Our Happiness Coordinator would be happy to wrap any presents received this way. Please note- we have also extended the "deadline" to December 17 to allow for some last minute Santa additions!

We are SO thankful for all the musicians that have reached out to us to bring Christmas cheer to our residents. Last night The Back Row Boys performed, and today we have Savannah playing sing-a-longs on the piano for us. We have some other groups coming later in the month and we so so appreciate getting to hear the talent of our community.

Such a fun morning at our Cocoa and Cookies Holiday Boutique! Thanks to the vendors who participated and to everyone who visited our branch!
