Showing one’s appreciation for kind gestures is a regular occurrence here at Bickford of Crown Point. Whether it’s management supporting a newly opened coffee shop by treating the staff to their energy and iced coffee drinks, or receiving a gift of fruit from a resident’s family for our caring staff, it’s always a welcome treat, and one that never goes unnoticed

Gail, one of our residents, had a recent visit from her sister, and decided to challenge her to a putting match. Well, apparently this attracted some attention from a few others who craved a little friendly competition. In the end, it didn’t matter who won, only that they enjoyed the game, as well as each other’s company!
