Even on the gloomiest of days, joy finds its way in… Today, our hearts were brightened by a very special visit from Marie and her therapy dog, Happy Happy trotted from room to room, spreading love, wagging tails, and endless smiles. Residents lit up with laughter and warmth, proving that sometimes the best medicine is a furry friend and a kind soul. Thank you, Marie and Happy, for reminding us that happiness can be found in the simplest moments. #BickfordFamily #TherapyDogLove #SmilesAllAround #SeniorCareSupport #MomentsThatMatter #CaringHearts #dementia #assistedliving #activityprofessionals

Sweet moments at Mary B’s! Today our ladies rolled up their sleeves and baked the most delicious pumpkin chocolate chip cookies. The kitchen was filled with laughter, teamwork, and the cozy aroma of fall. They had just as much fun making them as they did enjoying them once they cooled down—every bite was a treat! The cookies were a hit, and our ladies are already excited to bake again soon. #BickfordFamily #MaryBsKitchen #SweetMemories #PumpkinSeason #DementiaSupport #HealthAndHealing #LoveAndCare #ElderlyCare #montessorifordementia #MontessoriInspiredLifestyle

Cozy moments at Mary B’s! On this chilly day, our residents warmed up with a delicious cup of hot cocoa and a good story. While the cocoa may have stolen the spotlight, we all shared smiles and laughter watching the classic 1954 film 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea. There’s nothing like a timeless movie and a cozy drink to bring everyone together. #BickfordMoments #MemoryCareMagic #WarmHeartsColdDays #LoveAndCare

Chicken Shoot Showdown at Bickford! We tried something new today — a hilarious game called Chicken Shoot! Picture this: rubber chickens flying through the air, aiming for the highest score, and laughter echoing through the halls. It was a cluckin’ good time! Our residents brought their A-game (and a little friendly competition ). Let’s just say… they beat me fair and square, and I’m still recovering from the defeat! It’s moments like these that remind us how joy, playfulness, and connection make every day special at Bickford #BickfordMoments #ChickenShoot #SeniorFun #MemoryCareMagic #RubberChickenChampionship

Halloween fun wasn’t just for the kids — our amazing staff got in on the action too with a festive Prop Hunt! Throughout the day, tiny Halloween figures were cleverly hidden all over the building for every shift to discover. From spooky corners to sneaky shelves, our team searched high and low for these mischievous little props. Tomorrow morning, we’ll be awarding prizes for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place — and let’s just say, the competition has been fierce (and hilarious)! It’s all part of the joy we share here at Bickford — where every holiday brings laughter, teamwork, and a little extra magic. #BickfordHalloween #StaffFun #MemoryCareMoments #PropHuntChallenge #SeniorLivingWithHeart

Halloween magic filled our halls this week at Bickford Assisted Living & Memory Care! We hosted an indoor trick-or-treating event that brought smiles, laughter, and a whole lot of sweetness. Our residents welcomed little ghosts and goblins from the preschool next door — along with staff’s children — for a festive afternoon of trick-or-treating, games, and treats galore. But the fun didn’t stop there! The preschoolers gifted our residents with hand-drawn pictures to brighten their rooms — a gesture that touched every heart. It was a beautiful day of intergenerational joy, and we’re already counting down to next year’s celebration! #BickfordMoments #HalloweenJoy #MemoryCareMagic #TrickOrTreatTogether #SeniorLivingWithHeart

Cold mornings call for warm hearts and strong legs! Today was leg day at Bickford, and our residents showed up ready to work hard and laugh harder. The room was full of energy, smiles, and a few groans (the good kind!). Even some of our amazing staff jumped in to cheer everyone on and join the fun. Nothing like a little movement and a lot of camaraderie to kick off the day! #BickfordStrong #LegDayLaughs #SeniorWellness #TeamSpirit #AssistedLivingJoy
