Bickford of Lincoln

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.

We are beyond excited to introduce, Joslyn Clem, as our new Happiness Coordinator at Bickford of Lincoln! With a Bachelor of Science in Communication and a rich background in event planning, Joslyn's passion for creating meaningful connections and spreading joy shines through in everything she does. Her journey of working with seniors began early, as she spent much of her youth volunteering at local assisted living communities. These experiences inspired her to pursue a career dedicated to bringing smiles and a sense of belonging to those around her. At Bickford, Joslyn's goal is simple yet powerful: to ensure every resident feels a sense of purpose and joy through enriching activities that go beyond just fun. She is committed to fostering an environment where everyone feels valued and connected. Joslyn is excited to get to know each resident and their families, and she's open to any ideas or suggestions that can make their time at Bickford even more special. Please join us in welcoming Joslyn to the team! We're confident her energy and heart will make a lasting impact on our community.

    Mom, (name removed), was recently moved back to Mary B area. Mom and I were both having to deal with this change. Thank you to the staff being willing to listen and your guidance.

  • Jan 1, 2025

    I am overall very pleased with Bickford. I was concerned however on Christmas Day. We were unable to get someone to answer the door or let us out. I saw one young man walk away after ringing multiple times. When I talked to a staff member she said they were short staffed. Having supervised healthcare staff, I know it can be very difficult on holidays, especially Christmas, if someone calls in or is ill. I was really more concerned about the impression this gives to family or other visitors, if they can't visit their loved one.

  • Nov 1, 2024

    Have been doing a great job with the transition of new staff. Thus far, I see many great improvements.

  • Sep 7, 2024

    Things have been so much better since (name removed) started. Better communication and staff more accountable. I'm so sorry to hear she is leaving. I'm concerned about the organization and it's upper management. It seems like a revolving door of employees. I'm also still waiting to hear back from (name removed) about a credit for dad for all of the months of a higher level of care for care he was not receiving.

  • Aug 1, 2024

    It seems that things are more organized. Feedback from my mother has been positive.

  • Jun 1, 2024

    I appreciate the care the staff at Bickford provided my mother in the last few days before her passing.

  • May 6, 2024

    All the staff are very helpful & pleasant but u especially enjoy (name removed). She is so understanding of my mom.
