Today, our very own Shipwright Jerry gave an incredible presentation in honor of National Boating Week, showcasing the model boats he’s handcrafted with care and precision. Jerry has spent hundreds of hours meticulously crafting each vessel, and he was proud to share his passion with his friends. He’s been talking about it all week at the dinner table—and sure enough, his tablemates showed up to cheer him on. What a wonderful display of talent, dedication, and community! #NationalBoatingWeek #BickfordMoments #HandcraftedWithLove #MontessoriInAction #MontessoriDementia #MontessoriMoments #ShipwrightJerry

Thank you so much to everyone that came to Jamaica and especially to all of our BFMs for making tonight absolutely spectacular! What started as a fun idea during a brainstorming session turned into a beautiful celebration of culture, community, and teamwork. With four incredible Jamaican BFMs on our team, we knew a Jamaica-themed party was the perfect way to honor them! Steve connected with Annette, who's sister owns a Jamaican food truck, and she brought the flavor! Meanwhile, Nadia and Donna picked out the decorations, and Kaidian and Annette whipped up some delicious traditional Jamaican drinks. This afternoon, our Jamaican BFMs helped bring everything to life—and the whole team joined in! It was amazing to see ALL our BFMs come together to make the night unforgettable. #Teamwork #CulturalCelebration #JamaicaNight #LifeAtBickford #BFMPride #SeniorLivingFun #OneLove #BickfordSeniorLiving

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
