What a beautiful afternoon in the garden at Darlington! 🌸🌿☀️

Coordinated by Stacey Farrell, Community Life Manager – Darlington Neighborhood, the event brought residents together for a joyful day of planting, laughter, music, and sunshine alongside family members and loved ones.

A special thank you to Bill’s O's daughters, Maureen and Bea, for generously donating flowers and plants for the garden — including several wonderful perennials. We are so grateful they could spend the afternoon helping residents plant them by hand. Everyone had such a good time. Stacey reported there was not a clean hand in sight by the end of the day!

Moments like these are part of the meaningful daily life shared at The Hickman.

There’s something powerful about preparing a meal — the familiar smells, the memories it brings back, and the sense of purpose it creates.

In our Darlington memory care neighborhood, residents recently participated in a special culinary program developed by an Occupational Therapy doctoral student Katie Friedman. Through baking, decorating, storytelling, and shared experiences, residents engaged in meaningful activities that encouraged independence, confidence, and connection.

As part of her capstone project, Katie Friedman created a culinary cookbook to help The Hickman staff and families continue cooking activities with residents for years to come.

Care You Can Feel.

When families begin researching senior living options, they want to know that their loved one will be safe, well cared for, and surrounded by people who genuinely know them.

At The Hickman, residents are greeted by familiar faces each day. Our care team takes the time to listen to their stories, learn their routines, and help them continue to enjoy the things that bring them joy. Residents enjoy chef-prepared meals, daily programs, and opportunities to build meaningful friendships within a warm and welcoming community.

We are currently offering limited one-bedroom availability with a waived community fee and room rate locked through 2027 for new residents.

Schedule a tour and experience The Hickman for yourself.
