Secondary providers within the Higher Path Senior Health Model,are key to overall resident well-being, including the spiritual aspect of their lives. Bickford contracts with Marketplace Chaplains to provide services, including weekly worship service and Bible study. These Chaplains may also visit with residents individually if they are interested, at no cost. They say that friendship rooted in prayer weathers every storm. These two ladies are great examples of this as they join hands in prayer before every meal.

As loved ones pass and mobility decreases, staying connected becomes harder—but connection is vital to well-being. At Bickford, we believe no one should age alone. Our vibrant community offers daily opportunities for meaningful interaction—whether it’s sharing a meal, joining an activity, or simply chatting with a friend. You Can Help If you know a senior who may be feeling isolated, reach out. Encourage a visit to Bickford, where friendship, purpose, and joy are part of everyday life. Because here, family is not just a word—it’s a way of life. Right now we have room for one new friend! Call Abbie today, 712-301-8165.
