As a member of the Board of Directors at The Hickman, I am inspired by each staff member who I meet. They come to their work with a depth of health care experience to serve each resident with an extra dose of kindness and grace. I am very proud to be affiliated this fine organization.

My Mother moved into The Hickman as she was recovering from a long but successful battle with pancreatic cancer. Her personal fight for her life was courageous but very private. She is fiercely independent. When surgery and chemo left her unable to walk and breathe without the support of oxygen, she finally agreed to move to a senior community. My family and I researched many facilities. During our tour I could sense right away that The Hickman was the IDEAL community for her. I had worked with The non-profit called A Place for Mom which prepared me to ask the right questions and determine what would be suitable for my Moms personality and personal care, as well as within our budget. The team at The Hickman worked with her and miraculously transformed her. She started walking after 6 months and she is breathing normally again without oxygen. The Hickmans food is also really great! My mother taught culinary arts for 25 years and is hard to impress. Even after chemo she is finding things she enjoys as she slowly gets her taste buds back. The chef personally introduced himself to her on her first day and asked her preferences. She loves the ice cream especially. She didnt like ice cream before. The groups meals are a big part of the routine to keep the community together and to keep everyones daily life on a schedule. The games, events and entertainment are well thought out and fun, even for an introvert like my Mom! The personalities of the people who live on her floor are a hoot too so that helps her stay engaged and connected. Her quality of life has radically improved over how she was feeling living on her own. The community and the activities bring intellectual stimulation and companionship everyday. She exercises regularly which has helped her gain her strength back and improve her mood. The personalized care The Hickman team gives her is beyond what my family and I could of ever provided on our own. The nurse and daily support are well trained and personable. She has become very attached to them- I suspect she prefers them to my family and to be honest - I should be jealous : ) The Hickman has made all the difference. If I could give them a 10 star review on here I would. I wish the very best of luck to anyone reading this- its a tough transition for a family and takes a lot of work to make a big decision for your parents. I recommend going on a tour of The Hickman to get a sense of what the best quality care looks like so you can make an informed decision.

This is a favorite community of mine. The admissions team makes it so easy for individuals and families. Everyone is so welcoming. The nursing staff and care staff are professional and caring. The activities are the best Ive seen. They engage, interact, and stimulate each resident. You have to visit to really understand how fabulous they are as they just have a culture of excellence thats hard to find anymore. Definitely worth checking them out!

From the very beginning of my Moms respite stay, she felt welcomed at The Hickman. The staff was extremely helpful; they even escorted her to the activities to be sure that she arrived in the right place. The community is warm and friendly, involving Mom in their conversations and activities. I would definitely consider The Hickman for Moms future needs.

The Hickman Staff has been great in keeping family and friends informed and connected with virtual visitations with the residents since March. They continue to keep the residents busy and entertained. It certainly has been a safe environment. I have had three family members reside at the Hickman over the years.

My mother is a resident of The Hickman and there is no place I would feel more comfortable with her living. The staff are very helpful and caring and I feel my mom is very safe there.

Our Mom has been a resident of The Hickman Community for over 6 months now - moving there from their independent living community. Thankfully she moved in just 6 weeks prior to the COVID quarantine. Unlike other facilities you may have heard about, Mom has been very safe and well cared for by the excellent staff. We are very happy and comforted by the fact that she is there!

Sadly, my aunt only lived there for a brief time until she passed. The Hickman was just a fantastic place. Unbelievably clean, beautiful building, kitchens on every floor, and a staff that is incredibly nice and caring. They took care of my aunt like she was Hickman family, and for that we are extremely thankful! I highly recommend this facility to every senior

My wife has lived in the memory care neighborhood for the past 3 1/2 months and I've found it to be bright, safe and clean with excellent food and spacious rooms. There are structured activities all day long. The place is well staffed and the aids are friendly and caring.

I have been doing photography for Hickman off and on for some 17 years. I like the place so much. I moved my mother from Connecticut to the Hickman for her to be closer to me. When the time comes I hope to be able to move in there myself.
