Bickford of Carmel was very nice. It was comfortable and the people were nice. It was very small though. I didn't think it had much to offer as far as activities and opportunities to meet people, but I liked the feeling of the place. It was warm, friendly, and nice. The one real benefit there was that they were willing to work with me on respite care if I wanted to send Mom for a day or a month or whatever. In most places you have to go in for a month, and they were willing to do whatever. The rooms were a little smaller than I would have preferred for assisted living. They're kind of laid out a little strangely, but they were willing to move furniture around and stuff for you. They had a lovely courtyard. They had people playing cards and doing a trivia game. The staff were lovely. The building was just older, but the layout was OK.

My husband will be moving into Bickford of Carmel. I liked the facility. It looked like home for my husband and the staff I felt were very friendly. The rooms were adequate. They were having some social activities when I was there. There was a musical group, and the caregivers were engaging some of the people in a discussion and a game.

Bickford of Carmel was a secure facility. The doors were locked and so we had to be let in. I thought that was nice, especially since a part of that facility is memory care. You wouldn't know what stage your relatives might be in when they're there. So, it was nice to know that they can't just walk away and be lost on their own. I was going to meet with Peggy, but instead, it was Caitlin who took me on the tour. She did a very good job. She took me to a nice room (just as you came through the lobby) where we sat at a large table. She then introduced me to a little bit about the facility before we took a tour of the facility. They had a movie theater, a game room where people could put puzzles together and play games, and a nice dining area. The thing that mpressed me was that the whole layout was in a large square. One thing that impressed me was the ability for a resident to be there on their own, but they're well taken care of. Then if their memory would deteriorate or if they would have issues, they could remain in that same facility and go into the memory care area. Their menu was impressive, too. They had choices that the residents could have.

I chose Bickford of Carmel for my friend because it had both assisted living and memory care; you could just pick the one that your resident would qualify for. We tried assisted living, but it turned out that he has dementia that had progressed to the point where he needed memory care. He is still in assisted living at the moment, we will be moving him to memory care eventually. They have chefs so they have regular, delightful meals. They have quite a few residents, so you have a few people to make friends with. They have a very professional staff, and the maintenance guys are very kind to the tenants. The marketing woman was very knowledgeable, delightfully easy to talk to, and not at all pushy about selling you on the rental agreement. The place is new and elegant inside; it's not some cheap, contractor-grade construction. It has all these stoneworks and a beautiful courtyard that is in the center of the large circle, and the residents can come and go at will. It has a covered area as well as an open area, a barbecue grill, and plants. It's quite lovely, and the whole place is exceptionally clean. The decor is beautiful; it is not like an apartment complex but more like an elegant home. They also have nurses on staff.

The staff is so loving and caring, the rooms are beautiful,with a walk in closets, walk in showers. So much room to move around. The entire building is like a home. The chefs cook the most interesting and wonderful meals. The residents all look so happy and engaged. It warms my heart each time I go and visit!

Bickford of Carmel is full term care, I liked the rooms, and they were nice sized. The shared rooms were more private because they were so big, and the way they had them situated still had a private feel to it. My dad's a fall risk, so it's very important to me that they have a good response rate. I was impressed that they had screens up on the ceiling that lit up with messages if someone needed help in a room, so that anyone working at the facility walking by would see if someone needed help that they could assist. They were just starting a new program in their large therapy department for Parkinson's, and they have lots of activities. They do a good job, and the staff seemed wonderful, very friendly, and -- from what I could see from the interaction -- did well with the residents.

My dad was in the Bickford of Carmel. There was too much of a turnover of people, the food was terrible, and the treatment was questionable.
