About the facility Bickford of Marion

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 yours. ...

Our loved one never had the chance to move in, but we were so excited to get them into Bickford that we paid in advanced to hold a room for them. When it came time for the director of nursing to give our loved one an evaluation and asses their health level, she never showed up. We called the community that day, and they said there had been a covid outbreak and the director of nursing was in quarantine. We asked if they could send someone else, and they never did. Our loved one ended up passing away before moving in, and when we asked for a refund of the money they said the check would get back to us within a week - it took almost 2 months and it ended up only being a portion of the money. Every time we asked questions there was always an excuse regarding covid, they pride themselves on treating families with respect but we did not feel respected, they never returned calls or thoroughly answered our questions. Very unhappy.
