"Assisted Living with Friendly Community and Special Financial Option"
The community is really friendly and welcoming. My mom is happy there. We picked Spring Oak because they offer a one-year spend down option. Not many places have that choice.

"Top-notch Assisted Living Facility with Exceptional Staff and Upgraded Amenities"
Spring Oak of Toms River is really nice. It's clean and doesn't smell like other places that help people live. They've fixed up a lot of the areas recently. The people who work there are amazing. The boss, the nurses, and the lady at the front desk are all fantastic. They were happy to answer all our questions, even though we had a lot of them. I would definitely tell others to go to Spring Oak of Toms River.

"Efficient staff, communication improvements needed at assisted living facility"
Overall, my experience at the assisted living facility has been good. However, there are a few things that could be better. One main issue is that they don't seem to have enough staff. The workers work hard, but they are always very busy. Another problem is that it could be more organized. Many things are scheduled through the front desk, but the communication needs to be improved.

"Overpriced, Dirty Facility with Careless Management"
The price for this place is crazy and not worth it. I had a talk with the people in charge about how dirty and run-down the facility was. They didn't even bother trying to keep the place clean. I'd tell no one to go there.

"Elderly Relative Removed From Unsafe Assisted Living Facility"
We've decided to take our family member out of this assisted living place after being there. There's been a serious drop in their condition in the recent months. This place just isn’t safe for older people.

"Affordable but unsatisfactory assisted living facility"
The initial cost seems affordable, but you need to provide your own furniture and there are additional costs that accumulate fast. The residents I saw didn't appear too pleased with their lives there. The apartment they displayed to me was filthy from the previous occupant and it had an odd smell. I am definitely not having my uncle live there.

"Overall Impression: Neat Place, Needs Improved Kitchen and Menu"
The place appeared neat and the staff was kind, but they could definitely do with experienced kitchen staff who understand the dietary requirements of senior citizens. The menu options need to be more adaptable to accommodate the varying dietary needs of the elderly.

"Pleasant Assisted Living at Spring Oak"
Spring Oak is a pretty nice place. The staff is friendly, but there's a lot of turnover. My mom has been there for 6 months and likes it. The rooms are good, but the AC/heat units are noisy. Most residents enjoy Spring Oak, except for the food. Despite that, it's one of the better assisted living places. The facility looks nice and clean.

"Incompetent Staff and Management Lack/Ignore Communication"
Impossible to get a hold of management or nursing staff over the phone, and they never call you back. Residents' concerns and requests seem to fall on deaf ears. The overall staff is not friendly and simply seem to be there to serve their shift with as little effort as possible.

"Highly Satisfied with Spring Oak Assisted Living"
My husband's mom from his first marriage has been at Spring Oak for almost 2 months and we're really happy with it. Her room wasn't fully ready when we first moved her in, but they quickly took care of our requests. Her room is really big with 2 large closets and it's a great deal for what we pay each month. The staff is super caring and helpful. Mom has said several times how much she likes her aides and the nurses. We're really pleased with how well Mom has adjusted.

"Need for Smaller, Simpler"
Spring Oak at Toms River was nice but too big. When I toured, I couldn't find the elevator. Too busy for my mom, I prefer smaller places.

"Great Care and Friendly Staff at Mom's New Assisted Living"
My mom is getting good care here, and I'm happy about it. The staff are really nice and caring. She's getting used to a few things. She likes the meals and the variety. They offer activities to her and try to encourage her to join. She participates often. We would tell other families to consider this place because of the good care and value.

This one-bedroom apartment in Independent Living is very nice. The friendly staff and many activities make it a pleasant place to live. The enclosed courtyards are lovely.

"Dreadful Facility: Noisy, Disorganized, With Terrible Food"
This facility is terrible! It's an old conference hotel that's been turned into an Assisted Living Facility without any proper planning. The heaters are noisy, the food is horrendous, and everything is so disorganized. It's a total mess! Even my dog deserves better than this place.

"Warm and Welcoming Staff Enhances Assisted Living Experience"
I really liked this place, especially the marketing person and the manager. They are super friendly and welcoming, which made me feel good about being there. They even know everyone's name, which I think is really impressive. The friendliness and caring attitude of the staff are what stood out to me the most. They really go out of their way to make sure everyone is taken care of. The only thing that could be better is the food.

"Assisted Living Facility Review: Spacious Rooms and Tough Decisions"
We liked this place. The rooms were big and really bright. It was one of our top choices. We thought we might have to go into memory care, but she wasn't quite ready for that yet. The place was beautiful, and it was a close decision. They only had one-bedroom options in memory care, and those were bigger than what we needed.

"Good overall, transportation needs work"
Overall, I think Spring Oak at Toms River does a good job. The facility is generally well kept and clean, and the staff are all friendly and helpful. However, they could improve their wellness center and transportation service. More than once I have scheduled a ride for my loved one to an appointment, but then they tell me they can't bring her back, which defeats the whole purpose.

"Awkward layout, empty memory support, limited activities"
The layout is weird, there are no people in the memory support program (it's empty), and there's not many activities or benefits.
