Assisted Living
A living option for seniors or individuals who require assistance with daily activities such as bathing, dressing, or medication management while maintaining a level of independence. Assisted living facilities offer personalized care plans and social activities that promote quality of life for their residents.

Respite Care
Respite care is short-term or temporary care. Respite care can be provided in adult day centers, in private homes via home health agencies and in senior living communities, most often assisted living or skilled nursing facilities.

I found the staff of Bickford in Crystal lake to be caring and knowledgeable. They cared about getting to know grandma and making sure she was comfortable and safe. The facility is clean and homey. The facility is located in a neighborhood and it is easy for us to get to to visit. It made the decision for our family easy.

They don't take Medicaid at time of writing but pricing was good for out of pocket. We got a holiday discount for 30 days at a fixed rate regardless of level of care needed and the local medical supply store gave a free hospital bed for 30 days. The staff was very flexible with no insurance payment and they drive out to your hospital to get you released. Free meals for family visiting or $8 if you come too often. Nurses check on patients very often. At lowest level of care they still clean the room and provide the meals and makes staying affordable. If you need a place to stay after being released from ICU with the prospect of getting better this place is excellent. Competitors charge like $7000+ for any amount of care and require down payments of up to 3 months. Bickford is still less or the same at highest level of care.

WOW! What can I say…This Bickford Senior Living of Crystal Lake ROCKS! I needed to place my Mom ASAP on short notice into assisted living respite care in Illinois so I could coordinate her move down to where I reside in Missouri (8+ hours away). And they made it happen within 72 hours. I could never have asked for more caring and responsive individuals, trust me. Plus my Mom is LOVING the facility straight up, which is allowing me to focus on her placement here in Missouri! She has truly settled into the daily activities and care of the staff. Her peace of mind and daily care…I cannot ask for anything else! I would DEFINITELY place her here full-time if closer to me in Missouri. Thank you all at Crystal Lake Bickford Senior Living Caregivers. GOD BLESS!!! Sincerely, Janet Judkins
