Staying Strong, Staying Social!
At Bickford Assisted Living and Memory Care, we believe physical fitness is key to a happy, healthy life — no matter your age. Our residents love to stay active, whether it’s through chair yoga, group walks, or fun fitness classes designed with their needs in mind.
As our resident Richard always says, “If you don’t use it, you’ll lose it!” We couldn’t agree more. Movement helps improve strength, balance, and confidence — and it’s always more fun when we do it together!
Here’s to strong bodies, bright minds, and active hearts.

Today was game day filled with fun and laughter. Some ladies enjoyed creating colorful designs with Lite-Brite, while others got competitive with Shut the Box. Mother and daughter enjoying Yahtzee. The room was alive with smiles, cheers, and friendly competition. It was a joyful time shared by all, creating special moments together.

We had an egg-stra special time at Bickford Assisted Living and Memory Care during our Easter celebration! Huge thank you to Francisco for hopping into the role of the Easter Bunny — you brought so many smiles! Residents enjoyed delicious cake, festive refreshments, and a fun-filled Easter egg hunt with eggs hidden all around the community. It was a joyful day full of laughter, sweet treats, and great company! #EasterCelebration #BickfordFamily #SeniorLivingFun #MemoryCareMoments #EasterJoy #AssistedLivingLife #BickfordEvents #SpringFestivities #EggHuntFun #BunnyLove

Here at Bickford Assisted Living and Memory Care, one of our residents’ favorite activities is taste testing! Today, we had a sweet (and sometimes sour) time sampling a variety of Peeps flavors—from cotton candy and tropical fruit to sour watermelon and even Dr Pepper! Our Assisted Living residents voted Dr Pepper as their top pick, while sour watermelon didn’t quite hit the mark. Interestingly, in our Memory Care neighborhood, it was the complete opposite—sour watermelon was the clear favorite! It’s always fun seeing everyone’s reactions and hearing their opinions. We love creating these small moments of joy and connection!

This morning began with church, lifting our hearts in worship, followed by exercise with Francisco. Here at Bickford Assisted Living and Memory Care our residents get the best of both. Caring for the soul and the body—what a blessing to share this journey of faith and wellness together. 'For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life.' — John 3:16

Today is Taste Test Tuesday, and we sampled fresh guava a tropical fruit. This sweet, tangy gem is packed with fiber and vitamin C, making it a healthy choice. Some of us loved it, while others weren’t as fond. The texture was soft, and the inside was filled with seeds, but the whole fruit was edible. It was an interesting experience for all involved!

Friday Fun Day was a burst of creativity! Mary B. led the way, bringing colors together in a brilliant way. As we interact with each hue, blending and experimenting, watching how each color interacted with the next. The result was a beautiful and vibrant work of art!
