Care
Assisted Living
A living option for seniors or individuals who require assistance with daily activities such as bathing, dressing, or medication management while maintaining a level of independence. Assisted living facilities offer personalized care plans and social activities that promote quality of life for their residents.
Memory Care
Memory care communities offer specialized care and support for individuals dealing with memory-related conditions, such as Alzheimer’s or dementia. These facilities are equipped with trained staff and offer engaging activities designed to promote well-being while ensuring a safe living environment.
Respite Care
Respite care is short-term or temporary care. Respite care can be provided in adult day centers, in private homes via home health agencies and in senior living communities, most often assisted living or skilled nursing facilities.

I have worked very closely with this beautiful community over the past 3 years and have made multiple professional referrals. I receive very positive feedback from those who have and continue to live there. The staff is kind and approachable, and the environment is beautiful and very clean. I'm there at different hours of the day, during weekdays and weekends, and my experience is relatively the same with each visit. I'm also very familiar with the majority of the Assisted Living and Memory Care communities in Hampton Roads area. Bickford of Chesapeake is one of my favorites. Without reservation, I recommend this community as a great place to live and work.

I highly suggest checking the Virginia Department of Social Services website (Licensing - Search for Assisted Living Facilities) to review complaints and violations for Bickford of Chesapeake. Management promises to deliver services that they repeatedly are unable or unwilling to provide, including basic personal care, meals according to dietary restrictions, accurate medication management, and maintaining a safe environment, including not responding to emergency calls and not making required evening rounds. They are continually understaffed and staff turnover is rapid. My family was impressed by how Bickford was presented but quickly realized we made a big mistake moving our father there.

My family was given the golden sales pitch when we were looking for a place to help my dad in his final months. What we got was far from what was advertised. There were several employees who did their very best, and we appreciated it, but some were not so dedicated, as well as management simply being incompetent. All residents wear a fall monitor, but we found they weren’t of much use when our father fell and laid on the floor for 5 hours, and that’s on camera. I wish everyone luck in finding an assisted living community that isn’t an obvious cash grab, such as Bickford.
