Recent reviews for memory care in Dexter

Tribute Senior Living in Prosper, TX

4.3
Overall they are fantastic here. There can be times that the care staff can get frustrated with the residents. The call button response time could be improved upon, and this might be due to the lack of staff as in any community.

Magnolia Senior Living of Frisco

5.0
They staff have really good communication with family, they try to include residents in activities. The one aspect that I think is so important is that as my partners memory gets worse, he stays in the same room and will not be transferred to memory care.
