If you think there’s not much going on in a senior living community, you’ve never been to Bickford. Imagine your loved one enjoying delicious, scratch-made meals, having a friendly caregiver always nearby, and a calendar chock-full of social activities. Our family of caregivers will do whatever it takes to make sure your loved one is living their best life possible. 

That includes our nationally recognized HigherPath senior health model. Think of it as your loved one's safety net — a proactive care team that's all about helping them live happier, healthier — longer. Oh and did we mention our resident happiness ratings are double the industry average? 
<h4>Get your loved one on the HigherPath</h4>
Many assisted living facilities seem similar. But Bickford’s nationally recognized senior health model is taking the road less traveled and championing a higher standard of senior care. An interdisciplinary care team will ensure your loved one is getting whatever proactive interventions they need to stay on a higher path.
