What a perfect day to get out and enjoy the sunshine! We took our residents on a little adventure this morning down to the Mighty Mississippi River—and wow, Mother Nature really showed off today! Beautiful weather, great company, and lots of smiles all around. Days like this are what memories are made of! #beautifulday #sunshineandsmiles #enrichinghappiness

Our First Garden Talk of the Year! Spring is in the air, and so is the excitement for gardening! Our residents gathered yesterday for their very first garden talk of the year. They shared ideas, memories, and plenty of enthusiasm as they planned what flowers and vegetables they'd love to see grow in our garden beds this season. From colorful blooms to tasty homegrown veggies, everyone is looking forward to watching their ideas take root and blossom! And of course, no garden chat is complete without a treat—everyone enjoyed a bag of Cracker Jacks to celebrate the start of the season! Here’s to a beautiful growing season ahead! #whatsinyourgarden #greenthumbs #gardentalk #bickfordofburlington

What a wonderful afternoon filled with music. Our residents were treated to a special musical performance by the talented Tamara Belland. She brought songs straight from our residents’ era—sparking smiles, toe-tapping, and even a sing-along or two! It was such a joy to see everyone light up as familiar tunes filled the room. Thank you Tamara. #afternoonvibes #enrichinghappiness #bickfordofburlington

Today, our residents had the perfect outing! We took a scenic bus ride to Crapo Park, cruising through Wever and some peaceful back roads. The weather was just right, and everyone enjoyed the stunning views of vibrant tree colors, wildlife in their natural habitat, and all the beautiful scenery along the way. A day well spent in nature! #bickfordhowietrip #scenicviews #naturelovers

Monday we celebrated National Coffee Cake Day, and it was a hit! Of course, what’s coffee cake without a cup of coffee (or juice)? It was the perfect way to kick off the day with great company and delicious treats. Here's to many more mornings like this! #nationalcoffeecakeday #enrichinghappiness #delicioustreats

Every month our team starts fresh and fills our Bickford Tree with leaves of appreciation for one another. In a positive work environment, coworkers who show appreciation for one another create a culture of trust, collaboration, and motivation. A simple “thank you” or a genuine compliment can boost morale, improve productivity, and strengthen relationships. When employees feel valued, they’re more likely to contribute their best work and support each other, fostering a team spirit that leads to success for everyone. Here at Bickford of Burlington we strive to not just have Happy Residents but to have Happy BFM's as well! We want to give a heartfelt Thank You to all of our BFM's for their dedication to caring for our residents, being there for each other, supporting our families and just being all around Rockstar's!
