Overall I have no complaints of this community they have provided my mother with excellent care and have really made her comfortable in her new living environment. They have a great menu for the residents to choose from with a wide variety of meals. They also have a great activity program offered throughout the week as well as off campus field trips. I am very pleased with everything at this facility and would defiantly recommend it

My sister entered FTMC in [date removed] -just as COVID was taking over the world. It was a painful and agonizing decision, but Fox Trail was incredibly helpful and encouraging from the beginning. The transition went so well, it felt like a miracle. My sister made a phenomenal adjustment and so did I. I have not regretted my decision for a second.
