Bickford of Carmel

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

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.

Halloween Parade and Party was a hit at Bickford of Carmel! We dressed up, had sliced apples dipped in caramel with toppings of pecan nuts, mini chocolate chips and mini m&m candies. Great day to celebrate!

Quote of the Week - came during a tour we were giving this morning. "We are not looking for a place for my mom to die. We are looking for place for my mom to LIVE." Isn't that great? That's our approach at Bickford Senior Living. Happier, healthier, longer lives.

    (name removed) , the Activity and Happiness Director, is so kind and patient and works hard to keep people engaged and busy.

    We have found Bickford of Carmel to be a good place. We have appreciated the competent, caring administration and staff and the companionship of friendly residents and their families. We like Bickford.

    From what I see from the outside is the hiring of (name removed) and those to help her provide happiness to the residents!! To whomever hired her and her associate- thank you from the bottom of my heart!!

  • Jul 2, 2024

    We have been very pleased with Bickford of Carmel. It is small enough that the residents can get to know and support each other easily. There is a spirit of camaraderie and optimism that pervades the facility. The administration and staff are attentive to any concerns residents and/or family members might raise, and all work together to make this assisted living/memory care facility the very best it can possibly be. We've been happy here for more than a year now, and we recommend Bickford of Carmel highly.

    (name removed) is also very attentive and pleasant and efficient and caring. (Sent before I finished it originally.) | 4-CNA (name removed) is also good--best on her own. | And, 5--(name removed) and his cooking! Best oatmeal ever! Great to have him back.

    My husband has been at Bickford of Carmel for one year. We appreciate the warm family atmosphere, the attentive staff, and the camaraderie among residents and caregivers. The food is nutritious and delicious. We have all enjoyed the new landscaping. In our experience when a problem has developed, staff, family members, and caregivers work together to find the best possible solution. We appreciate Bickford and recommend it highly.

    The nursing staff and caring team are excellent and make all the changes tolerable!!

  • May 9, 2024

    A manager REALLY is needed for the second shift | I would like to have a corporate employee visit me for at least 12 hours without employees knowing he/she was from corporate as though he/she was just visiting me, especially on second shift. | A 5 - New third shift employee: (name removed) - Super; came promptly and changed (name removed) brief efficiently and quickly. Friendly even at 12:30 a.m. and 5:00 a.m. A4 - (name removed); Works well on third shift. It seems as though those who work only at Bickford and do not have two jobs or not pick up two shifts are the best and most pleasant workers especially those who like their jobs and not stressed. The CNAs don't need the extra task of putting on/taking off the table cloths and laundering. The pictures on the brochures do NOT show table cloths.
