Bickford of Urbandale

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

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.

Another fabulous day in the books! Our good friend Tom Hofer graced us with a beautiful performance, serenading us with all the classic oldies but goodies. He even took requests, making it a truly memorable event. Thank you, Tom!

Today’s Bible study was a blessed event. Bob, one of our esteemed Chaplains, graced us with his guitar. Together, we lifted our voices in the singing of many beloved hymns. Truly, we were left rejuvenated and filled with the Lord's grace.

We had a blast on the front porch, diving into crossword puzzles and cheering on our friends during an exciting game of bean bag baseball! These activities not only bring us joy but also keep our minds sharp and bodies active as we age. Engaging in puzzles helps enhance cognitive function, while games like bean bag baseball boost physical coordination and social interaction. What a wonderful way to stay vibrant and connected!

Another incredible evening at Bennigan's Car Show! This week, we were blown away by a stunning 1963 Split Window Corvette—what an exceptional find! These beauties were only made for one year, making them incredibly rare and special. If you missed it, don't worry—there’s always something amazing in store. See you next Wednesday for more car magic! #BennigansCarShow #ClassicCars #CorvetteMagic #Bickfordoutings
