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

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.

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.

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.
