We had a special little visitor today, Miss Ariella. Carol one of our BFMs brought in her granddaughter to visit. Lois was the lucky one to get cuddles! Nothing brightens the day quite like a baby’s smile!

Josephine’s grandson came to visit her and we had the pleasure of listening to his amazing piano playing. Music has always been so important to her family and he made sure to keep this tradition going. #BickfordofClinton. #Whatever it Takes #FamilyEverything

We love that our care providers are so amazing, Compassus Hospice and Visiting Angels provided or residents with popcorn and a movie with different flavor salt and M&M’s to mix in. The residents enjoyed the snacks and the Lost Treasure movie. Thank you for all you do! #BickfordofClinton

Tessa from St. Croix did an educational program on Music Therapy. Music truly has its own language, we all sang along and got to guess the name and artist. Tessa also gave us information on the band or artist. Jeff was the biggest winner knowing the most!

Thank you Compassus Hospice for providing a movie, popcorn and M&M's in honor of National Assisted Living Week. We loved it all!

Having fun at #BickfordofClinton is a daily occurrence - we love our residents and staff! Even when they caught more smiles than fish

The adventure continues as we had a picnic in the park! It was a beautiful day to get out and enjoy some fresh air with a view of the Mighty Mississippi River. We enjoyed a fantastic sack lunch prepared by Sandy. Today’s menu was chicken salad sandwich, orange slices, chips, and Rice Krispie treat for dessert. We ended our trip with a cruise on riverfront! #BickfordofClinton #CelebrateNALW #WhateveritTakes

More fun was had today. Today was crazy hat day in Clinton, there were some pretty amazing hats. We also had our residents share some of the adventurous things they have done like climbing a mountain, riding deep in the ocean in a submarine, leaning backwards over a cliff to kiss a Blarney Stone for luck, and so many more interesting adventures. We are so blessed to have such an amazing family in Clinton and sharing their past lives with us! #BickfordofClinton. #CelebrateNALW. #WhateveritTakes

Residents had the chance to try something new and adventurous today, Ube Cake. A sweet and vibrant dessert from the Philippines made with mashed purple yams topped with cream cheese frosting. Many gave it a big thumbs up! Thank you to our cook, Chykee for sharing a piece of her culture with us! #BickfordofClinton #WhateverItTakes #CelebrateNALW

Today we had our seasoned travelers star the many places they have traveled and share stories about their adventures with the different customs and cultures. They have been to Ireland, Sweden, Germany, Japan, Israel, Italy, Australia, France, and many places all over the United States. We celebrated NALW by wearing crazy socks, check out a few. #BickfordofClinton #WhateverItTakes #CelebrateNALW
