    Our family member has regained a sense of routine and purpose with the incredible care and support she is receiving at Bickford. She is eating three meals a day, enjoying numerous daily activities and developing new friendships with other residents as well as the compassionate staff. She is engaged and happy and feels safe and secure in her surroundings. We couldn’t be more grateful, thank you to everyone at Bickford of Iowa City.
