Bickford is a wonderful assisted living facility with great staff, great residents, and a wonderful community. The facility and grounds are well kept and I am thankful for A Place for mom for recommending this facility. My mom is now a resident at Bickford and is thriving. I can go to sleep well knowing my mom is in good hands.

On May 11, 2026, I visited Bickford Senior Living in Fredericksburg VA as I was researching the facility on behalf of a very hesitant parent. I was greeted by Whitney. Whitney was extremely helpful in answering all of my questions regarding the community, costs, etc. The staff was very friendly & the facility was very well maintained.

False advertising

Bickford started out on the wrong foot. We were promised so much care and attention, good food, people looking out for our family member. First 2 weeks he never got his meds, we were lied to and they didn't give him medicine. Always short staffed, no housekeeping as promised, we clean his room They do his laundry, have lost it twice. Took two weeks to get a light bulb changed, have found his meds on the floor numerous times, no one checked to make sure he took it. Food had gotten horrible. There is no management right now, they all quit or were fired. One poor med tech handling everything. They gave no assistance as promised, no fresh baked bread as promised. Half a hamburger bun served as garlic bread. Chipped beef and gravy served on a plain untoasted piece of bread with a teaspoon of gravy on top of it. Very sparse servings that all patrons are complaining about. No one there after five except one med tech and two younger girls, no one on call for medical, all gone.

It's an excellent facility. The food is good, the facility is clean, and overall smells good. They were very helpful answering questions although some information was miscommunicated. The staff is helpful and has been trying to really do a good job.

Review for Bickford of Spotsylvania

Four months ago, my mother moved to The Bickford of Spotsylvania, Virginia. My family recommends the place. Mom is happy and well-tended too. We toured 5 plus establishments before selecting The Bickford. Our experience at Bickford has been positive; albeit a learning experience. This is our first encounter with a retirement home. Situations we have learned along the way are more of learning curves versus bad experiences. My mother started in the assisted living section. Here the individuals walk to meals; share living spaces and are more independent. My mother required more care and thus moved to the Mary B side. We were reluctant for that level of care; but that level of care is exactly what she needs. The staff there save foods my mom loves for different meals, engage her, leave her notes to perform various functions to assist her; they are very attentive and call family if something is amiss. Her room is always clean; they are diligent about helping her with bathroom activities; work to engage her and over all a very family environment that is welcome. Mom is happy and we feel she is very safe there. My whole family recommends Bickford. The smaller number of residents we find helpful as well.

Bickford gives a homey feel. Lots of cheerful staff around who appear to care about the individual residents. It may not be the fanciest place I toured, but if and when the time comes, it is the place I would choose for my spouse.

Had high hopes, but fizzled.

Our experience didn't work out so well. Our dad was there right around three weeks before passing. He failed to thrive there, there was tension between their nursing staff and private nurses we hired - therefore care suffered -

Make sure of the charges and don't sign unless you fully understand them. The room sizes are ok, and also the amenities.

Bickford Senior Living

Bickford is a warm and welcoming facility. The building and grounds are very nice and the staff members are very friendly and accommodating. Nothing is 100% but, overall, I am very pleased with the care provided and it is comforting to know that there is someone available 24 hours a day to assist when needed. We toured a couple other facilities before choosing Bickford. Bickford was far superior to the others for around the same price.

Please do not send your loved one here!

We were thrilled when we found Bickford, which presented itself as a caring, family-like environment, for my sister-in-law when it became apparent she could no longer live alone. She had a history of falls and had developed early dementia. Unfortunately, our experience was very disappointing in the areas of patient care, cleanliness, and billing practices. The marketing person and others were very friendly, but did not follow through on promises made regarding room readiness and start of therapy. We used the medical provider at the facility, and our loved one was started on several medications without our knowledge or consent. Sadly, after seven weeks (mid-Aug) she suffered a bad fall with serious head injury, resulting in hospitalization at a trauma center. We were informed she needed to be discharged to a facility that could provide a higher level of care. Bickford’s director agreed but administration refused reimbursement for unused Sept. days. Overall, a bad experience.

some good, some bad

I'm going to vent here, hoping for change due to public exposure. Plus: food, activities. security. Minus: Communication with family, follow up on action promises, missed medical appointments. professionalism of some staff. Staffing appears inadequate.

If you are able to take care of yourself fine, if you can't don't go here. They didn't clean my loved one like they should have. The staff communicated well; however, their follow through needs to be improved.

Highly recommend

We chose Bickford of Spotsylvania because of the location for family and we really liked the layout of the building. The room size is just right for what she needs. She raves about the food, they are chef prepared meals. They are starting to ramp up on the activities that were stopped due to covid, they just had an outing last week. I would absolutely recommend them to others looking.

Good Caring Place that are trying their

The community is a good place. They have had a few challenges with COVID, due to the lock down. We are able to visit in person now, and only recently. The visits are limited to porch visits or in a room and it is by appointment only. The time is limited to 30 minutes with our loved one. There is a newsletter posted on their website. They have COVID case numbers on their website.

I was very hopeful that this was the place for my husband. I started the convo off w/ saying he had medicare & aid. They wasted 2 weeks of my time. Did virtual tour, had nurse access him. They assured me of it would all be fine. THEN they sent me to their financial people (ELDER). Since we had nothing to give up for his stay, now they claim they dont take our insurance. WRONG WAY TO DO BUSINESS. SHOULD HAVE TOLD ME FROM THE START.

Tips for evaluating your community options

Safety is a primary concern when seniors and their families look for Assisted Living. To ensure that a community meets your needs and expectations, we recommend that seniors and family members:

  • Know Virginia’s regulations for memory care. Each state has its own laws and inspection processes to ensure seniors reside in a safe environment. Depending on your state, you may even be able to look up inspection reports for the communities you’re considering. Learn more about Virginia’s regulations for memory care and download the Guide to Senior Living Licensure and Inspection Reports.

  • Tour the location. Touring allows you to speak to current residents and staff, and it helps you confirm the accuracy of the community description and photos. Use our touring checklist to help guide your visit.

  • Confirm the availability of required services. Before committing, make sure that the community offers all the services your loved one needs, and that those services can be provided within your budget.
