The care at Fox Trail South River is outstanding. The staff goes above and beyond, especially in the evenings, treating residents like family and making sure they feel safe, valued, and loved.
Anna Metcalf
I highly recommend this memory care facility for anyone suffering from dementia and/or Alzheimer's. The facility feels and looks like a home wherein each resident has their own room and share the communal living room, dining room, outside porch, etc. The aides attend to each resident as if they were helping family members. The house manager is conscientious, professional and very concerned about all of her residents. I know I made the right choice in putting my 84-year old mother who is in advanced stages of Alzheimer's in the best place possible at Fox Trail Memory Care Living at South River.
