We went to Bickford of Okemos. Its a smaller environment, its in the suburbs of Lansing, and it might have been good for my mother. The people we met were helpful. They have a number of things that they plan to do, but we never really experienced any of that. The staff seemed very thoughtful and understanding.

Bickford was clean and nice, but it did not fit our needs. The staff was well prepared for me to come and visit, but it's a little bit farther for me, and it's cramped. It's too far for my husband to walk with a walker. The apartment layout was bad, the walk-in closet ate up a lot of room, and it made it very difficult for a wheelchair to get into the bathroom.

We chose Bickford of Okemos because they were willing to work with my parents. They put them together in apartment, and everybody seems very caring and competent. Things are going well. The food is pretty good, and my parents liked it. I think it's a good place; I had a friend who had her parents there, and she also recommended it. It's a very nice-looking place. The room is small, but they got a 1-bedroom little apartment which has a full bathroom in it and a little sitting area and kitchenette. Everybody is more than happy to help out with everything we need. So far, I think it's good, and I don't have any complaints at all.

Bickford Senior Living was nice. The dining area was fine, and they had a nice outside garden. The staff was very pleasant, and they had a nice menu. It looked like a good place to live.

Bickford is just down the hill from us. I talked with the manager, and he’s very nice. They’re all very nice and accommodating, but the rooms just aren’t large enough. The room and the den are just 610 sq. ft. large, and there wasn’t anything any bigger than that. I wanted to keep my sister happy in a room where she has some space. She brought a lot of her things from home that would give her comfort. I went there after their dinner hour and didn’t notice anything going on at the time, although they had game rooms and areas outside for walking.

Bickford was the very first one I saw, and it was really nice, really homey, and they accepted pets as well; I have a cat. The Bickford was the most expensive of the three assisted living that I went to, so I ruled this one out because my funds are getting low. I didn't have a problem with it; it's just that it was in the higher range of prices for me, but it was very nice.

Bickford was quite accommodating, but the prices seemed fairly high. The memory care seemed to be small and in an intimate setting. It seemed to be personalized because they had few people there. They apparently had activities and it was personalized and compatible with what the patients had experienced in the past.

Bickford of Okemos was clean. They're helpful. The room that they showed us was very nice, and I liked the way it was laid out. The dining area was clean. If my mom would have went there, she would have enjoyed their activities.
