When caregivers stay, they become part of residents’ extended families. They celebrate birthdays, remember favorite meals, and offer comfort during difficult times. This kind of continuity fosters emotional well-being and a sense of belonging that’s hard to replicate. #higherpath #bickfordofgi #caregivers

What an Ageless Adventure week it was! We had so many wonderful moments last week that we didn’t get to share them all… here are a few more smiles and adventures, from our residents and BFMs “floating away” in a hot air balloon, to the sweet surprises and goodies brought in by our amazing community . We are beyond thankful for our dedicated BFM’s who pour their hearts into making every day special, and for our friends in the community who helped make this week even more memorable. It takes a village to create happiness, and we are so blessed by ours. Here’s to the many adventures still to come big and small, together. #AgelessAdventure #NationalAssistedLivingWeek #GratefulHearts #BickfordFamily #CommunityLove #MakingMemories #bickfordofgi #assistedliving #seniorliving #NALW

Another fun filled day at the Nebraska State Fair! We enjoyed all the sights and sounds as well as the delicious treats! #bickfordofgi #assistedliving #SeniorLiving #NEStateFair

“There’s no place like home…” and there’s no place like celebrating Wizard of Oz Day with our wonderful residents! We stretched with some Over the Rainbow exercises, played a game of Follow the Yellow Brick Road, and finished our adventure by watching the timeless classic The Wizard of Oz, right on time for its 87th anniversary, yesterday! “Toto, I don’t think we’re in Kansas anymore…” but we were certainly in the best place of all, together.

What an amazing day! Our Toss for a Cause Cornhole Tournament was a huge success, all thanks to YOU!

The 1950s Called—And We Answered in Style! Our 50’s Theme Day was a rockin’ good time! From poodle skirts to leather jackets, jukebox hits to coca-cola floats, we went all-out and turned back time to the fabulous fifties. Residents showed off their hand jive skills, played a groovy game of 50’s slang bingo, vintage vehicles, and got silly with a sock hop photo booth! It was the bee’s knees, the cat’s pajamas, and everything in between. Thanks to everyone who made it unforgettable! #FiftiesFun #RocknRollForever #SeniorStyle #MemoryMakers #RetroRewind #SockHopSmiles
