What is the Bickford HigherPath? It’s our nationally recognized approach to senior health that puts residents on a path to a happier, healthier, longer life. We’re redefining what it means to age well. With that being said, meet Eddie, proof that that the Higher Path works. For reference on the photo, while in rehab all Eddie craved was pizza! Upon returning, Happiness Coordinator Amber, made it happen and they enjoyed some good pizza next door at Gianna’s. #SeniorLiving #BickfordSeniorLiving #HigherPath #HealthyAging #AssistedLiving #Montessori #Pizza

Thank you to everyone who joined us for our Mother’s Day Potluck on Friday! We’re especially grateful to our wonderful volunteer, Rebecca, who captured stunning portraits of some of our lovely ladies in honor of International Women’s Day. These heartfelt photos were gifted to families as a special Mother’s Day surprise. While a few of our ladies were a bit camera shy and chose to sit this one out, many others—and even a few of our staff—joined in the fun and made some beautiful memories together. What a meaningful way to celebrate the strong, inspiring women in our community! #WomensDay #MothersDay #StrongWomen #GlamorShots #Beautiful #Photography #Portraits #BickfordSeniorLiving

Our Happiness Coordinator Amber and Bread Basket Manager James really embraced the spirit, twinning in style and spreading double the joy.

Our Mary B’s residents are hard at work preparing for our upcoming Mary Bs 70s Night! About a week ago, we kicked off the planning by inviting our residents to choose the theme for our next Family Night. Our BFM Shakari facilitated a community vote, and the winning choice was a groovy 70s theme! This Montessori-inspired approach empowered our residents to take ownership of their event, promoting independence, decision-making, and a sense of purpose. Now, they’re fully engaged in the preparation—coloring bright, retro invitations to send to their loved ones. It’s all about creating meaningful moments and giving our residents a voice in their community. We can’t wait to boogie down and celebrate together in true 70s style! #MaryBsMoments #MontessoriAging #EmpoweredResidents #70sNight #FamilyNightFun #EngagedAging #MontessoriInAction #PeaceLoveAndCare #MontessoriDementia #BickfordofSuffolk #HigherPath

Happy Earth Day! Our Garden Club was hard at work today! From replanting hanging baskets to planting blueberry bushes and giving the garden a good drink, these green thumbs brought beauty and care to our outdoor spaces. Upon coming back inside to wash up, one resident smiled and said, “It’s been years since I’ve done some yard work! Thank you for inviting me!” Moments like these are at the heart of our Montessori-based dementia programming—offering purposeful, familiar activities that spark joy, independence, and connection. We can’t wait to see what grows next! #MontessoriDementia #Montessori #GardenClub #GreenThumb #CantWaitForBlueberryPie #GoodHelpers
