Happy Wednesday! We had an adorable little fur friend visit today! His name is Churro and he's a pug chihuahua mix almost just over 2 months old. Today was also the day we celebrated July's birthdays! We sang "Happy Birthday" to Charlie, BFM Alicia and BFM Alivia!

Happy National Homemade Ice Cream Day! We celebrated by making our own 2 ways! We shook it in bags and we used an electric ice cream maker! Howie took us over to Rock Creek to look around! It was Tuesday so of course we spent time with Chaplain Cindy!

Howie took us out into the beautiful countryside and through Three Bridges Park. Along the way we stumbled on a huge field of sunflowers! The afternoon bingo session had a fun group! Wayne was the big winner of the day!

Playing music works to improve the mood of our residents, which can influence their behavior. When people enjoy the music they are listening to, it can reduce stress and anxiety, reduce pain, and even help improve the immune system. Music also helps our memory! This week was all about music! We have had a great gathering of our family and friends which made every event memorable! Come join us for music and fellowship! You are always welcomed in our Bickford home❤️ Call 641-354-5996 for more information.

Howie took us to Britt Marie's Country Boutique and Oliver Beane for some shopping! The service was exquisite! We then had our Wednesday cocktail hour and enjoyed fresh fruit sangria! We enjoyed the music of Jan Kluck on the accordion! What a great show she put on! And of course we pampered the ladies with nail spa day! Connie had the Buzz Cuts and Beehive Salon open too! Such a fun busy day!

We had an exciting session of BINGO on Monday! Karen was the BIG winner snagging 5 games total!

We had a wonderful Tuesday! We took a trip north to see three beautiful Union Grove State. After lunch we had Bible Study lead by Chaplain Cindy! Marlene had a special floofy visitor Emmie Lou and her helper Linda. BFM Stephanie brought in a record player and some classic vinyl for us to enjoy!

Working at an assisted living facility means you’re a seamless part of the fabric of a dedicated team. You’re also an essential part of someone’s everyday life, and this is a responsibility we take very seriously. Call 641-354-5996 for a tour!

Grandparents serve as the glue that binds extended families together. Family gatherings and reunions provide opportunities for strengthening connections, fostering a sense of kinship, and creating lasting memories. Grandparents’ presence at these events imparts a sense of unity and tradition, reinforcing the importance of family ties and shared experiences. We encourage you to visit often! Karol and her tribe obviously had a great day!
