Fox Trail Memory Care Living at Hillsdale East

My mom moved to Fox Trail in February. [name removed] and the staff have done an amazing job helping her acclimate. She is happy, and so are we.

It's really nice, kind of like a boutique memory care. It's much nicer than the normal institutions and I think it's safer because there are fewer people. It's very nice; I've already referred a friend to Fox Trail Memory Care Living at Hillsdale East.

We chose this community because of the location and I was concerned about the care she was getting at the previous facility. This is a more intimate facility, so you get a more personal experience. The room sizes are standard medium/small bedroom size. If you want something specific for food, you are able to bring it in. My favorite part about Fox Trail is the individual attention that residents receive.

I finally stopped by while I was driving home since we're becoming concerned about Mom being alone. She is getting lost, etc. But I found such a lovely home. It's hard to believe this is for seniors and it looks more like a bed and breakfast place. It's clean and the people were doing puzzles and coloring before dinner. And the food smelled good!

Prior to moving my mother into Memorycare Living Hillsdale we had very disturbing experiences at two other dementia care facilities so we were nervous. I really cannot convey how absolutely wonderful we have all been treated at Hillsdale!!! In no uncertain terms it has exceeded our expectations. They are kind, gentle and really recognize and address the individual's particular needs. They interact with the family members, as well as their residents with compassion, concern and empathy that I am certain cannot be rivaled anywhere else. My mother had been labeled combative, was overly medicated and not really kept clean which seemed to add to her agitation and discomfort elsewhere. Since she has moved into the Hillsdale house we have not had a single phone call or report regarding her behavior. She is calm and comfortable. This is because the pay attention to her needs and what she wants. This is such a relief. We are so grateful to all. [Removed] are both sincere and willing to accommodate on so many different levels. I recommend them highly with no reservation at all.

My mother has been a resident in Hillsdale 1 for almost four years. My experiences with the staff has been exceptional. Kristine, Elizabeth, Jennifer, Sondra, James and Lucy to name just a few have gone above and beyond in every aspect of mom's care. I sleep better knowing she is being care for and attended to by the best. The few occasions that any questions arose, my quires were looked into and answered within a day. I visit quite often and at various times of the day, I have found things always running smoothly. Due to the nature of the diagnosis of the residents there have been times when someone might be having a difficult day. The staff is always on top of the situation and providing proper assistance to the resident involved and to those not involved they are not even aware of any difficulties. The entertainment is enjoyable and gets the residents as involved as they wish. Family members like myself become involved if they wish to by dancing and singing with all the residents. It reminds me of having a special family that knows we all face difficulties but all wish for the very best outcome in the residents lives. They live in their special world and while we are with them we are all caring guests that only want the best for them.

I was looking for a home for my relative and found a wonderful place. It is a clean, well kept facility. The meals here are home-made. They have their own providers that come to the facility such as hairdresser, doctor and densit when services are needed. She is very happy to be here being that she is a very difficult person to please. I would recommend this facility to another family member who is searching for a comfortable and safe home. It is like they are in their own home. Staff here is well pleasant, nice, and caring and patient with residents. Excellent, compassionate staff that makes them feel at home.

Found the most amazing caring place! The smaller setting and the loving staff have made for the best home for my mom. Everyone is so helpful and genuine. They make sure my mom is safe and well groomed. They get her involved in activities and get her to go outside in the nice weather. Peter was extremely helpful from the beginning by placing my mom at Hillsdale 1 and Lucy is always there to make sure that things run smoothly. She stays in close contact with me and so I never have to worry. The home is clean and the meals are all home cooked. Everyone that works there shows an interest in my mom. I would recommend this place to anyone looking to take their loved one out of their home and into an assisted living place because as Alzheimer's progresses it gets harder to care for a loved one. This place puts your mind at ease.

I have been in touch with Peter from Memory Care Living and he has been very helpful, but as I explained to him for right now I am really trying to keep my husband at home with help. If things change down the road I would seriously consider Memory Care.

This is a smaller setting home like place. The staff are caring and attentive. They helped mom transition in her new home with such care. This place for my moms needs perfectly. Janice Taylor was wonderful and Marilyn is kind and knowledgeable. I know my mom is in the right place!! Thank you Dino DiPaolo at a place for mom for helping to lead me to these awesome people!
