Staff is responsive to requests but sometimes the request needs to be made again They could improve on the cleanliness by possibly hiring some additional staff. I would recommend Spring Hills Matawan to others looking.

Our Experience

The place falls short on many issues. The care is sub par. The food is inconsistent, some meals are horrible. The laundry is a disaster. Everyone there seems friendly, but I believe they are short staffed which causes every department to suffer.

I am a friend or relative of a current/past resident

I recently visited my 90+ year-old uncle , whom I had not seen in over a year. Apparently, his dentures were lost approximately 10 months ago. Whenever he asks the staff about getting new dentures, he is told "They've been ordered." I mean really, how long does it take? The poor man has no teeth and is unable to chew his food. I spoke to a rep about the issue and was told that "Dawn" would phone me to discuss the matter. That was nearly two weeks ago and I've yet to receive a call. I&a…

Terrible facility. The new management is awful and the quality of care has gone down hill dramatically. The new director is horrible to deal with. Do not place your loved ones here.

New management is awful

Please do not put your loved ones here. Under the new management the level of care is terrible. The new director is horrendous to deal with. The aide’s attitudes and care has definitely gone down. I would not recommend this place.

All inclusive Assisted Living. Something for everyone and more!

My loved one is a resident at Spring Hills Matawan. The only difficult part is the business office/communication. The facility is very nice. The living area and common areas are nice, as well. The dining experience is very good. I would recommend this facility to family and friends! They really go the extra mile for their residents.
