Our nationally recognized approach to help your loved one live happier, healthier — longer

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.

Assisted Living

Watch your loved one thrive in an environment that feels like home.
In assisted living, seniors get personalized help with the activities of daily life, such as meals, grooming, and medication management.

Getting support for the basics can prolong your loved one’s autonomy
In assisted living, seniors get help with daily tasks like meals and medication, easy access to healthcare professionals, and a vibrant community. It’s an environment that allows them to focus on what truly matters most — living the best life possible.

Independent Living

Enjoy your golden years to the fullest

Your golden years shouldn’t be lonely or burdensome
Running a household can feel isolating and overwhelming as we age. Chores like cleaning, cooking, repairs, and yard work may get increasingly tiresome. The walls of our homes, once a source of comfort, can start to feel confining.

Seniors living at home alone are at greater risk of:

Falls and accidents
Adverse drug events
Nutritional deficits
Depression and loneliness

The right living environment will prolong your independence
Independent living is designed to support a senior’s health and autonomy. In private apartments, you have the freedom to maintain your daily routines and come and go as you please. Yet you never have to worry about home maintenance or other burdensome chores again. The community setting provides engaging activities and the convenience of freshly cooked meals. And if your care needs evolve, you’ll have convenient access to additional assistance while remaining in your own living space.

At Bickford, we know you take pride in your independence. We’re here to do whatever it takes to support you to live your golden years to the fullest.
