Spring Oak Senior Living

My husband's mother-in-law from his first marriage has been at Spring Oak for almost 2 months and we're very happy with this facility. Her room was not quite ready when we initially moved her in, but our requests were immediately addressed. Her room is very large with 2 large closets and a bargain for the monthly charge. The staff is very caring and very helpful. Mom has commented several times on how much she likes her aides and the nurses. We are very happy with how well Mom has adjusted.

This is a nice community. They presented the food well. It was a buffet style dinner and the staff would prepare the residents plates for them so they did not have to stand in line. They did not however clean his room as often as they do at the community he is currently at. The staff were nice and attentive. They offer a lot of activities.

The Spring Oak at Toms River was a very nice facility, but it was too big. When I went in to take a tour, I couldn't even find the elevator. It was too much going on for my mother I wanted some place smaller and easier to get around.

The staff is great with mom and they are attentive to her needs. The food can use a little work on though. Mom has been getting into the exercise classes and some arts and crafts projects. The room and the community is clean. Mom loves her apartment. The feel and good vibe of this place is the main reason why we chose them and we are happy that we did.

This community is a little less expensive than the community mom is currently living in. The people I met were nice and were on the ball when answering my questions. The community seemed clean when I visited.

My mother is doing well since her move. She is still adjusting to all of the changes. The staff are all very nice and keep her safe. She likes the food and the place is always very clean. It is a very nice looking facility.

I am happy with the care that my mother is getting here. The staff are really nice and caring. She is trying to adjust to a few small things. She seems to be happy with the meals and the variety. The activities are offered to her and try and encourage her. She does participate often. . We would recommend the community for the value and the care to other families.

My tour of this facility was okay. It is a bit smaller than I would like for my father. The facility is little older, and the community could use some updating. The staff was kind and very informative. I did enjoy my tour of this community.

We were immediately impressed at how nice the establishment was from the start. My father likes the friendly & warm staff. He continues to say how friendly everyone is. Thanks

I think Spring Oak at Berlin is a very nice place, overall. The staff here is friendly and professional, and they take great care of the residents. They've also got a good cleaning and laundry service. Over the holidays they even had a few parties which family members were welcome to attend. I thought it was a nice gesture!

Overall, especially the marketing person and the manager, they are very warm and welcoming and that's what made me like the place. They know everybody by name, which is very impressive. Just overall the friendliness and the caring is what got me. They go out of their way. The only thing that can be improve upon is the food.

At Ivy Ridge some staff are exceptional and some are not. Most of the staff are exceptional. They have a singer come in and other activities. I would just like to see a few more activities. Their food needs to be more healthy. It's sandwiches, or hamburgers, and tater tots. When the staff first initially talked to us on the phone it seemed like they were more accommodating but once you get in they aren't as accommodating. Mom couldn't go to the bathroom on her own and the nurses only come in at specific times. They don't seem to tailor to her needs. Some of the nurses really goes above and beyond.

They were very helpful in getting my loved one in there and made some special circumstances because of her condition. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Everyone there at Ivy Ridge was just really good.

My mother has been in the Amerisist of Louisa since May. The facility is clean and the staff is very friendly. The facility has an overall "homey" feel. There are not a lot of level one care residents, so it doesn't seem that there are many activities that hold my mothers interest. I wish I would have checked the care level ratio to residents a little more thoroughly before deciding on this facility. Overall my mother is happy living there.

We liked it. The rooms were larger, and very bright. It was one of the top two. We thought we might have ended up in the memory care, and she wasn't quite ready for that. It was a beautiful place, and a close call, it was a tough choice. They also only had one bedrooms in memory care, and that would have been bigger than we wanted.

My overall experience has been good. The administration staff is very nice and very helpful. The aids have gone above and beyond at taking care of my mom. The meals are good. The only issue is the miscommunication that we had between the nursing staff about getting some medications that were discontinued. Other than that, it's been good. We haven't had any other issues or complaints. It has been going well.

The staff was very receptive and approachable. I have never had any problems when trying to communicate or making any requests. One thing where I do feel they could improve is this: Since I am using their doctor, I would like a little more access to talk to their physician. I would like to talk to him personally to ask some questions and get his take on some things regarding my mother. Other than that everything with Ivy Ridge has been a very positive experience and I would highly recommend them. Overall it is a very good program.

My mom loves living at Ivy Ridge. It makes me feel comfortable that she's at a safe apartment environment. She's met friends and participates in their activities.

Overall I think they do a good job at Spring Oak at Toms River. The facility itself is generally well kept and clean, and the staff have all been friendly and helpful. However, I do think 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 they will then inform me that they cannot give her a ride back, which defeats the whole purpose.

Our experience with Spring Oak was only a very brief one, our loved one had to move out after only a few days, but the experience was a good one. They really impressed us when we were touring, it is a nice looking place and seems well run. We also appreciated that they do not require a long period of private pay before Medicaid can kick in.
