Community Reviews
really helped us
reviewed on: 10/14/2015 by AnonymousThey have been very helpful as my dad's health has changed and we have had to bring in hospice, which was not expected. They really helped us go through this tough journey. They do seem to be a bit understaffed and because of that there are times where I feel my dad is not getting the attention he needs as quickly as I would like. But I think that would be an issue just about anywhere. Overall though things with Bickford of St. Charles have been very good and I would recommend them.
Absolutely recommend
reviewed on: 11/06/2020 by Linda SoukupWe chose Bickford of St. Charles because it is very close to where we live, so we were able to visit often before COVID. We also were impressed with the tour. The room sizes here are adequate for his needs. The best part about this community so far has been the friendliness of everyone and the socialization aspect. Also, the manager is very helpful, answers all our questions, and she is easy to get a hold of. I would absolutely recommend this facility.

reviewed on: 07/14/2017 by AnonymousThe place is very nice mom seems to be happy there. Jennifer the new manager there is awesome. Mom is not crazy about the food would much rather eat my wife cooking. We feel secure in knowing mom is getting good care.
Great staff!
reviewed on: 02/10/2020 by Paul WebergMy dad moved into the memory care section of Bickford of St. Charles at the end of December. Beginning with our very welcoming interview with Colleen the director, my family and I have been very pleased with the care they have provided for my dad. He is clean, content, well fed, and active. There are plenty of interactions he has with the staff as well as activities to enhance his mental and physical capacity. We are new to the dementia world and how it affects people. The staff and Colleen the director have been incredibly patient and kind to my family. Colleen spent an hour on the phone with my mom reassuring my mom about my dad's condition...giving her time outside of normal work hours (the phone call was on a Sunday). The staff, from top to bottom, have given my family and I peace of mind knowing that Dad is getting the best care around. Thank you seems too easy to say for what you have given to my dad and us. May God reward you!
