The receptionist woman is horrible! I can see why they posted signs to replace her! As soon as my daughter called, she answered the phone and immediately hung up the phone. Called again since maybe it was a mistake, but no, that woman is MISERABLE. Refused to give us her name. I can only imagine the other staff. STAY AWAY don't take loved ones here.

I've had a great experience working with the team at Foulkways. They are very professional and clearly care for their residents. Brian Kersey is very knowledgeable and cares to find the right fit for every new resident.
