Fox Trail Memory Care Living at Princeton

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.

It has truly been a blessing to find Fox Trail Memory Care in Princeton for our mom. The care that the staff provides has been second to none. Especially during quarantine, the steps taken to keep mom and the other residents safe was above and beyond the state guidelines and my expectations. Moving mom into Fox Trail has been the best decision we made for our mother's Alzheimer's care.

No activities residents just sit and brains get no exercise

We really like the "home" atmosphere and would seriously consider this house an option for my mother. We really liked the outdoor space and their ideas of engaging my mother in day to day chores and activities. The staff appear to be exceptional in engaging the residents. However, given that the ratio is mostly male and the scheduled activities are more limited than other alternatives, we are carefully considering other options.

The tour I had of the community went fine. Their care and staff had nothing wrong. I thought it looked nice but it was not going to fit the personality of my loved one.

We are still figuring out our way around this community. I will say they are willing to work with us with our concerns we have. It is a clean community, but they could do a better job with the minor cleaning around the community. About 60% of the care staff is good and very caring. The other 40 could use some more dedication to their job. The executive director is great. I haven't noticed many activities offered. We take care of her meals, but their meals look nice. It is still a work in progress for us here.

The staff is well trained and they never seem to have a bad day, they are always upbeat. It's like one big family, your not just a number like some facilities. Kathleen & Laurethea were very helpful with the move in, I can reach out to them at anytime by cell and they usually have the answers to what I'm looking for. They helped me and my family get through a very tough situation and choice in my father's care.

The staff are very kind. The Family Care specialist was just the right person to help us transition from family to the Memory Residence. Their physician is very kind and knowledgeable. There are a number of men who live there, which was important to me. I didnt want my loved one surrounded by only women. The residence style living has made it easier to encourage friends and family to visit because they are not going to "nursing home." It looks like a residence and the relaxed atmosphere has helped my loved one relax and settle in to a new environment.

Staff interact nicely with residents and family members and are attentive. Very clean. Private room for each resident. Seem to keep patient's comfort a high priority.

I went online to find a dementia care facility for my Uncle as the facility he was in was too large and he needed more one on one care. I reached out to senior advisors.com as I live in California and told them I was looking for a smaller facility with a home like environment as we have these types of care homes in California. Within 24 hours I had several homes call me and Memory Care Living was the best fit. Only 15 rooms with a higher staff to patient ratio what a great fit.

I think that it is a good facility compared to the other ones that I have visited. Overall I think they work really with men specifically. I think it is a good place and so far they have done really well with my father and they are very helpful.

The staff is committed to personal care, Everyone there is friendly, dedicated, and treats everyone like family. My dad has been in 6 residences in the past year and a half and this is the only one I will recommend.

Memory Care Living is a small facility but that works to its advantage in that the staff gets to know a new patient very quickly and knows their likes and dislikes very soon after they become residents. Staff are very friendly and interact with patients in many ways. There are many activities that are selected for various residents' abilities. There is also entertainment brought in from outside such as musicians. PT and OT come in to work with residents. Each resident has their own room; the rooms are pleasant and cozy. Meals are prepared in the kitchen. It is very much a home-like atmosphere.

We toured this community when we were looking into care options for a loved one. I liked that this was a smaller, more intimate feeling community. The staff could really get to know each resident as an individual. They do a great job looking after the people who live here, everyone seemed safe and secure.

I especially like the people, the smallness of it, the individual care. Everyone knows everyone. The one drawback right now is that the parking lot is a little small, but it's because of construction. The staff is excellent, I find no problems there; the food is excellent. The location is better than the previous location where we had him; it's 15 minutes from my home, very convenient. The activity director is excellent. She can do many things with many people at the same time. The gentleman that I have staying there is rather solitary and spends a lot of time reading by himself. But they have luncheons and parties, and he enjoys them. He is very comfortable there; he loves it. He basically likes the independence of not being on a lock down unit. Even though it is a lock down unit, he can go outside and walk around and get fresh air without someone being with him constantly. I'm very pleased with it. They've been more than cooperative. Anything I've asked has been done.

We toured here, it was very cute. I didn't like how small the rooms were. I didn't like the idea of a shared bathroom, and one of them smelled kind of musty like mold or mildew, but not like urine. They are getting ready to renovate it so I may check it out again, to see how it looks after.

Not very well maintained. Torn furniture.
