Bickford of Marion

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 have been with Bickford now for 3.5 years. (name removed) and staff do a great job despite labor shortages. A special shout out to (name removed) on staff who have been with mom since the beginning. We will be seeking a collaborative partner solution in November as our long-term care insurance ends then.

    I want to report an impressive incident that I saw one evening last week. A resident was clearly struggling, mostly tired, and wouldn't cooperate when asked to leave the room where she was visiting. The aid couldn't get her to cooperate. The aid went to the lead person for assistance. That was (name removed). She came in, addressed the resident to make connection, asked the couple questions, and the resident completely cooperated and on her own got up and went to her room. | (name removed)knew exactly what to do. No lifting or any help was necessary. She showed she is caring and skilled.

    Exceptional care! Could work on food menu for this part of the state. Not sure where or who picks the menu but needs to be updated for the state of Iowa.
