Bickford of Virginia Beach cared for my mother for over five years. We recently moved her to another state due to a change in family circumstances. I wanted to share that Bickford took great care of my mother during her stay there. The facility is clean, bright, and well maintained. The location is convenient to shopping, restaurants, and medical facilities. The staff is professional and caring. Loryn, Heather, Tiaqua, Billie, and Leroy all have my gratitude for their service to the community and for the care that they provided my mother. They and the rest of the outstanding staff deserve a special place in heaven for their kindness, dedication, and hard work they do in maintaining a first class facility for the care of our senior family members.

Of all the places for a senior to call home, this place actually feels like home, with extra personal touches like the patio garden area at the center of the whole building, and the cafe area perfect for meeting with family and friends. The food is delicious and there is always something fun happening every time I visit with the residents. Thank you Bickford

I toured this community and am so impressed with their approach to care using the Higher Path. The entire team was actively interacting and caring for residents. The building was designed for interaction and so homey and warm. If you are looking for a healthier, happier, safer place for your loved one you should visit Bickford.

Bickford of Virginia Beach is a great Assisted, Independent and Memory care facility. I have been there many times professionally as a first responder and the staff has always been helpful in caring for their residents. Heather Starr-Cress is so caring she always goes the extra mile when she takes on a potential new resident or just anyone who needs help. Definitely give her and her staff a call.
