Bickford has been Mom’s second home for 3.5 years. While it’s not home, it’s the next best thing.

I've know Executive Director, Misty Cottrell, for over 10 years... she is best of the best! Senior care is her passion and she promotes a positive atmosphere in her community to provide the best care for her residents. Every time I visit her community, the staff are interacting with the residents and smiles and laughter are being shared!
