Bickford of Lancaster review
Prices just went up but...what's new, right. what our family likes the most about the community is mostly that mom is happy and not lonely at her apartment...took some convincing.

About the facility

Needs some improvement
They seem to be understaffed which is causing some issues. We are having some problems with the billing, they are overarching us and that is causing some frustration because now I am having to keep a really close eye on things and track it. I am not happy with the food situation either, the meals are not nutritious. I am really impressed with the physical therapy through fox, they have done a lot to help my mom out. Also the staff are great and very helpful.

A Place to See But Not Close Enough
My sister-in-law did a lot of the foot work me and toured this community for me. She liked the way it looked and it would have been a suitable pick for our needs but it was not as close to my house like I wanted.

Too Far for Us, But A Nice Community
I had a pretty nice tour of this community. I toured it for my father, and his needs. Everything went well, the staff was polite, and kind. Unfortunately the location of the community was a to far from his doctors. and other personal care needs he has.

Nice place!
This community was very nice. Everyone was willing to help and show us around. I really didn't get to see much because of the Christmas show they had going on, but what I did see was nice. I liked the way the community was set up.

Very nice place, but could be clearer about pricing
Overall our experience with Bickford of Lancaster has been a very good one! The facility itself is clean, well kept, and just has a very comfortable atmosphere overall. Everyone is very friendly, including both the other residents and the staff. I really appreciate seeing how much the staff genuinely care for the residents, and how much they obviously enjoy their jobs and the care they provide. Bickford also does a great job with their amenities, there are always plenty of activities and the food is very good. My one complaint would be that I don't think they explain their pricing structure very well when you are touring or signing up. There are a lot of additional care costs that get tacked on to the price you are quoted, and they can really add up.

No privacy!
The staff was extremely friendly with every question that I had. The community was clean and did not have the normal smell of nursing homes. I just did not like that the rooms were right in front of the activities area. I feel that, that does not provide the privacy that my loved one is looking for. I would absolutely recommend this place to others if they do not mind the privacy issue.

Very nice looking place!
I toured this community while looking into care options for a loved one. The facility was well kept and clean, and all of the staff I met seemed friendly and professional. My loved one ended up selecting another community that she liked more, but if I was looking for myself this would have been my pick!

We toured this community while looking into care options for a loved one. The Inn at Fairfield Village seemed like a very nice place overall, it was clean and well kept and the people were friendly. It is not the place we ended up choosing, but it was definitely somewhere we considered!
