A home away from home community Due to the covid restrictions we have not been able to visit the community as much, and due to our loved ones dementia state we cannot rely on her to give feedback over the meals. However, just based on looking off the menu and the food we have seen in person it looks and smells very tasty. The activities have started to pick back up since she has been there, and it just really feels like a home.... Read more

About the facility Bickford of Aurora
We began our quest into senior living because of our love for our beloved mother, Mary Bickford, whose needs became too great for us to manage. As we researched senior living options, we were shocked at our findings. The options offered too much or too little — none met her needs and nothing felt like home. Since we couldn't find what we wanted, we decided to create what we needed. Our main desire was to create a place that helped her achieve an equivalent peace and happiness that she had earlier in her life.
We understand that selecting a senior living community for your loved one is one of the toughest decisions that you will ever face. We will work with you to ensure that the transition is as easy and comfortable as possible. Whether your loved one is at home, in the hospital or even in another state, we can work with your hospital, insurance company, and doctor to make your difficult decision easier on you and your family. Aging can be difficult — but we've also seen the beauty in aging. Our mother's happiness inspired us. We created Bickford for her and now we're devoted to serving...

A Great Place for My Grandma
I would recommend the community to others for their loved ones. The staff are stand outs to me. They are responsive to questions or concerns over my loved one. The activities seems good for the residents and have a good variety of them.

A Nice Place
Bickford of Aurora is was a lovely place. Unfortunately, my mother in law was only there for 3 days. The room sizes and layout of the community were good. They have an outdoor space for residents to enjoy.

Fell In Love
I cannot say enough good things about Bickford of Aurora. I took a tour of this community and fell in love with it. It was new, and I really liked the layout of the community. I liked that the residents have the freedom to come and go as they pleased, and that there were a lot of regularly scheduled activities. The residents all seemed very well-kept and happy, and if it hadn't been for the cost, I would have chosen Bickford for my loved one.

Just opened
This community just opened in April and the staff did a very good job showing us around, they took their time and they answered all our questions. There were a lot of amenities for the residents to choose from, it was open and bright and the staff was very friendly. It would be worth a tour.

Place is beautiful !!! We think our mom is a little past this area of living. She may need more assistance, but this would be costly. Also this is a self pay community and we are thinking she will need to go on Medicaid shortly.
