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.

    When I walked through the doors I felt the love immediately and I knew I had found mom’s new home. Family owned makes a difference. My mom’s health and well being has improved at 89 years old from the care given by all of the crystal lake staff! Thank you Bickford for giving me the gift to be a daughter again. Thank you Bickford for showing my mom what happiness looks like.

    My family has been working closely with Bickford for many months now and they have been nothing shy of outstanding. They have made the transition of our family member as easy as you could imagine given how hard it truly is to move someone into assisted care. The staff have all been so helpful and want to make sure my great aunt is enjoying her time each and every day. They make her feel comfortable and welcome and even though she had negative feelings going into the move, she is now in love with everything about Bickford. They have been our saving grace.

    Bickford of Crystal Lake has been a great place for my parents. They were able to stay together while they resided there. The staff has been great. They have been well cared for. Shout out to Jennifer, Sarah and Delaney just to name a few. Really my parents know all their names and back stories. The staff is very friendly and conversational with the residence. The food has been great. I have had many meals with my parents. Always some option to choose from. Nurse Noel has been spot on with my Mother's requests. Lisa, Crystal and Julie helped make the transition for easy for me, the daughter. Thanks for all you do.

She has come to look upon staff and residents as family She’s involved in the activities and has become her old self —a loving, caring person She enjoys the daily activities and Special events that they have. We evaluated many places before choosing Bickford
