Community Reviews
My review of Bickford
reviewed on: 03/22/2021 by anonymousWe chose Bickford of Overland Park at the time because of the staff members that we spoke to over the phone. They have been very good with communication with everything that has been going on. I think under the circumstances, they have been very good and they are doing an excellent job. I would recommend to others looking.
Treating My Father Very Well
reviewed on: 07/12/2016 by AnonymousThis is a community I would recommend. They are taking very good care of my father and his needs. He loves the food, they serve very nice meals. The is staff is wonderful, they treat him very respectful. There are activities offered, he has gone to a few music ones. I know he is safe and in good hands.
30 days and out
reviewed on: 11/15/2018 by Joan RiscoeMy aunt went to Bickford for a 30 day respite stay. She had been in skilled nursing for 12 weeks following a car crash and needed to get some strength back. We went in thinking she would be there 6 months or so, but she did not want to stay. She did rehab there and was able to move to independent living. She was promised a lot but was very disappointed and felt lied to. I believe they were not equipped to handle the care required for her injuries. For instance she was not supposed to get up without assistance and yet the general staff decided she could, even though the rehabilitation staff said no. We were there constantly checking up on her and did not feel comfortable letting her be alone. We also had medication issues that caused a lot of stress on the family. If your loved one can assist themselves it might be fine, but I do not recommend this facility if they need extra care.
Why we changed facilities.
reviewed on: 11/30/2013 by BrendaI was looking for a place that was willing to communicate with me by phone on how my mom was doing when things would come up that I should know about. I notice the staff are more personable with the residents and it is a smaller environment, but still offers the amenities that my mom is interested. In the beginning I thought bigger was better and I found this to be a wrong fit for my mom. Even though the beginning few weeks were very hard on my mom with the change the staff worked hard to handle the problems we were running into to get my mom to fit in. They had some staff changes right when we moved in which I was not very happy with but then people do change jobs and it seemed it was just bad timing on our part when we were moving in. I even notice spouses of the residents come and volunteer and I see more families visiting their loved ones. I think it is a good family atmosphere.
extremely happy, but a little understaffed
reviewed on: 01/18/2016 by AnonymousMy mother is extremely happy there. There's not enough staff members to work with the residents they have there. Sometimes she does not get a shower and right not now she's not able to care for herself. The need more staff there, their understaffed.
