The value for cost is quite pricey but it is a smaller facility and all on one level so it is easily accessible for everyone. The meals and dining service according to our loved one is excellent, and the activities are still a little limited.

At first very accepting and knowledgeable. Those gals are no longer there. Getting to know new staff.
My number one concern is I have asked for seven months to be given the scale/criteria that moves someone from level of care to level of care, and I have gotten nothing. To me, the criteria seems hit and miss each day. They do give meds on time and assist with my loved one's bath. The main entrance, main living areas, and dining areas are always clean and tidy. But my loved one's room is not very clean, and he is physically unable to clean for himself. Most of the time the food is good. And they do have a lot of activities.

Good But Not Great
It was very friendly there, but it seemed that the people in charge - the administrators - kind of went downhill once my loved one moved in. They did not give a lot of feedback about what my loved one was going through, mainly because upon move-in, they didn't tell us she would be quarantined for 5 days. They said they told her, but they did not tell us. So in those 5 days, she had to stay alone in a two-room apartment, and I think that broke her. After she got out and could meet a few people and make friends, then she seemed to enjoy it. She said the food was very good, that they had a lot of choices, and meals included all four food groups. I just wish they had been more upfront about those first five days.

Everything about this community is exceptional. I visited looking for a home for my mother and after spending a couple of hours visiting with the Director and staff, we already felt like part of the family. The apartments are small, but my guess is the residents don't care because they spend so much time with the community.

Not a good value,pricey.
Seemed short staffed. Mostly tv watching. For the cost they expected a lot to be provided, like toilet paper, gloves. Some staff very good with alzheimers, some not mature enough or appropriate. Probably would be ok if not an alzheimer patient.

Small Bedroom Layout!!
I took a tour of Bickford of Lincoln and it was a very nice community. This was one of my favorite places for my loved one to reside in. They had available activities and meals. One of the things that i did notice was the bedrooms they were small. Things were really close to each other. I did like that the tour guide was informative and very nice.

Review of Bickford of Lincoln - Lincoln, NE
The feeling of this facility is homey and welcoming. Residents were out and about and staff were engaging. There was a nice enclosed courtyard with raised beds (standing height) for resident gardening. The bedrooms do not have actual doors within the apartments. We prefer to be able to separate the bedrooms from the rest of the living space.

Mary's transformation
Positive changes caused a 180 degree turn around in the emotional health of my mother in law. We thought she was failing rapidly, and once she moved to Bickford, she was a totally different person. She is happy with her room and is even decorating it with her own curtains and comforter that were packed in storage for 10 years. Thank you for all you have done.

about Bickford of Lincoln

Bickford of Lincoln offers 2 Bedrooms, Studio and 1 Bedroom. Learn more.

A Place for Mom has scored Bickford of Lincoln 3 out of 10 using our proprietary review score.

 

We assign review scores to give a more reliable view into senior living communities and home care agencies. Our review scores prioritize reviews that are recent — the past 24 months — because we know families need current information when choosing senior care.

 

Those with many recent, positive reviews receive a high review score, while providers with few recent reviews — regardless of how positive — receive a lower review score. Communities with no recent reviews will not have a review score, even if older reviews are positive. The maximum A Place for Mom review score a community can receive is 10 points.
