Bickford of Okemos

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.

Beautiful day for a holiday BBQ! Thankful for our family and friends!

There’s something truly special about gathering outdoors with family and friends to celebrate a holiday with the timeless charm of a traditional BBQ. Our BBQ isn’t just about what’s on the grill—it’s about who’s around it. The sound of kids playing in the yard, the smell of smoke wafting through the air, and the clink of cold drinks all come together to create memories that last far beyond the last bite. Family Lunch is tomorrow at noon!!

At Bickford of Okemos, seniors enjoy far more than just comfortable living—they thrive through engaging, hands-on activities like cookie‑making in the community’s warm, kitchen‑focused atmosphere. Mixing, rolling, and baking cookies taps into cherished memories and sensory experiences, while the “Bread Basket” scratch‑kitchen environment encourages creativity and independence in the heart of assisted living. This simple treat-making activity also fosters social connection as residents share baking tips, laugh over missteps, and bond over fresh-baked treats. The result? Enhanced wellbeing, improved mood, and a shared sense of accomplishment—key ingredients of Bickford’s HigherPath model for thriving, purposeful living . #Bickfordofokemos # higherpath

    Not sure where the breakdown is but Mom did not have her compression stockings on when I saw her yesterday. Not sure where the breakdown was, she may have taken them off herself. Should be an order in the system for them to be put on her every morning and removed with her evening medications.

    My mother had a fall last month which resulted in moving my mother to the Mary B area - (name removed) was extremely helpful regarding the decision to move my mother but the most important reason was that (name removed), a caregiver, was assigned in Mary B! (name removed) loving arms, smiles and knowledge of caring for those residents that require additional attention is what brings "peace of mind" for the families that have loved ones in Mary B! The entire staff at the Bickford of Okemos are Excellent! Thank you and Please support these dedicated staff members at the Bickford! Please feel free to call me if you have any questions!!

    (name removed) and the staff are so awesome! It is so rare to see a director and other staff coming in on holidays to help out or to give special experiences for the residents. They do at Okemos Bickford! Jen and our maintenance guy, (name removed) even helped with cleaning when someone left recently. They are kind and work so hard to make the place as nice as they can.
