Bickford of Suffolk is turning into a vibrant little art community! Our coloring station has quickly become a favorite spot, and creativity is spreading throughout the branch. Thanks to our talented resident artist Janet, even our BFMs have caught the artistic bug! It’s inspiring to see residents and staff creating, connecting, and sharing their talents together.
The demand is so high that we are accepting donations of canvases, pre-drawn canvases, easy paint by number, and adult coloring books!

Our residents got into the St. Patrick’s Day spirit during craft class! They created the cutest little leprechaun pins to decorate their mailboxes and add a festive touch to the halls. Creativity was flowing and the smiles were just as bright as the leprechauns! #Activities #Crafts #StPatricksDay #Leprechauns #FeltCraft

This afternoon we brought the fun of Bickford Bingo to our friends at Cardinal Rehab! Our newest resident, Marian, was quick to volunteer to help call the numbers. Since Marian loves bingo just as much as she loves helping, we took turns so she could still enjoy playing the game too. Marian shared that she used to be a teacher and said with a smile, “I used to call bingo all the time for the kids.” It was wonderful to see her step right in and share her talents. Moments like these are a perfect reminder that everyone has something meaningful to contribute. #BickfordBingo #CardinalRehab #BingoLovers #Montessori #CARD #BickfordSeniorLiving

Lots of projects are underway at Bickford of Suffolk! Today our resident librarian, Grace, took the lead in helping alphabetize the books in our library to create a better experience for everyone who loves to read. Together we came up with a simple system—placing tags inside the front of each book so residents can write their name and remember which books they’ve already read. What started as Grace’s project quickly turned into a building-wide effort! Other residents jumped in to help place tags in the books and get everything organized. It was wonderful to see everyone working together with such purpose and teamwork. At Bickford, moments like these show how everyone has something meaningful to contribute. Thank you, Grace, for helping make our library even more special! #PurposfulActivities #Montessori #ReadingisFun #YesWeAlreadyAddedBooksToOurReadingList #Librarian

Janet and Mary showed up today in perfect sync without even planning it! Sometimes great minds think alike… and apparently dress alike too. Their matching outfits gave everyone a good laugh and brightened the day around here. We love these little moments that bring smiles and remind us how much fun life is when you’re surrounded by friends! #Twins #TwinningisWinning #Pink #GreatMindsThinkAlike

This afternoon was such a beautiful reminder of why we do what we do. Elsie wanted a hug from AG… and without hesitation, AG wrapped her up in the sweetest embrace. Before we knew it, Elsie had pulled in our Happiness Coordinator too — because when there’s love to go around, we’re all joining in! Moments like these aren’t planned. They’re natural. They’re genuine. They’re family. Our caregivers don’t just provide care — they provide comfort, connection, and compassion. And our residents? They truly become family to us. It’s the hugs, the laughter, and the togetherness that make our community feel like home. #caregivers #compassion #hugs #weloveourbfms #comforting #bickfordishome
