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

The Senior's Journey

There are two paths that seniors take as they age: the lower path and the higher path

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.

In Mary B’s, we’re excited to embrace the Montessori approach to create a more meaningful and personalized environment for our residents. To start, each resident has received a custom name tag featuring their name and some of the things they love most. These name tags aren’t just practical—they’re conversation starters, a way to celebrate each person’s individuality, and a step toward fostering deeper connections in our community. Stay tuned as we continue to bring this enriching lifestyle to life, one thoughtful detail at a time! #MontessoriDementiaCare #PersonalizedCare #MeaningfulMoments #MaryBsMagic #BickfordofSuffolk #HigherPath

Today, our residents enjoyed a beautiful craft session, creating faux stained glass poppies in honor of Veterans Day. This project was a wonderful way to remember and show gratitude for those who have served. The bright colors and creative energy brought a special light to the day! #Crafty #StainedGlass #VeteransDay #BickfordSeniorLiving #HigherPath

Our resident Mary had a very special guest, SpongeBob! Mary’s grandson, Jayce, came dressed up as SpongeBob to brighten the lives of our residents in Mary B’s including his grandmother. Not only is he a great dresser, but also a great helper! This past week he helped our Maintenance Director Jackie with our monthly fire drill! #SpongeBobSquarepants #Halloween #FireDrill #IntergenerationalEngagement #BickfordSeniorLiving #HigherPath

I would like to commend (name removed) for their help in assisting me in getting my mother, who is confined to a wheelchair and is a Mary B resident, to a medical appointment, and in providing her records for the appointment. What used to be so simple is now a Herculean group effort to accomplish, and their attention, timeliness, and sympathetic professionalism towards the task was a tremendous help!

It would be great if meals could be a bit more consistent with food selection and time it takes to get served. Thank you!

I feel like Bickford is understaffed in ALL areas and only 1 layer deep.

There appears to be a great improvement with the new Director.
