Today we brought the outdoor yard games inside! We also did dot painting, got our nails fancied up, and stretched our legs with walking club.

Chopping enough strawberries for 42 miniature strawberry shortcakes is hard work. Thankfully Howard and Linda were there to lend me a hand!

Emily is busy planning for Grandparent's day, which is THIS SUNDAY (September 7). I ask for every family to send me photos of their resident's grandchildren and/or great grandchildren. These will be printed and displayed outside of the resident's room. We are going to have a reminiscing social hour where we walk around and admire everybody's pictures. Photos can be emailed to marshalltownhc@bickfordseniorliving.com Please send them prior to September 4

When you think about your loved one today…. What does a good life look like? Here at Bickford, we see something about your situation that other well meaning senior care providers don’t. But we’ve all accepted as normal aging isn’t the only option. We’ve come to find that there’s a higher path available. Call us today for a tour! 641-354-5996

Meet the man that keeps Bickford in tip-top shape and goes above and beyond every day for our residents; Rick! We couldn't ask for a more dedicated maintenance director. Thank you for all that you do, Rick!

New month…new opportunities for our residents to stay active and engaged!

We are soaking up these last few days of Summer in style! Sitting outside enjoying lemonade and listening to Frank Sinatra.

A small act of kindness goes a long way. When Connie’s glasses broke, her sister Sally had a hard time finding a provider who could fit her current lenses into new frames. Thankfully, Jamie and the team at C Eyecare stepped in. Not only did they find a frame that worked perfectly for Connie, but they did it at no cost. We are incredibly grateful to Dr. Ragland, Jamie, and everyone at C Eyecare for going above and beyond to help Connie. Your kindness made a real difference - thank you! #higherpath
