Spring Oak Of Toms River is a 104-bed assisted living residence located along Whitesville Road in the Dover Township section of Toms River. The community offers a calm setting set back from the heavier coastal traffic, while remaining convenient to local medical practices and nearby hospital networks like Community Medical Center. Residents have access to both indoor and outdoor gathering spots, including garden spaces and secure walking paths.
Living arrangements include studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom layouts, as well as companion living options. Apartments come equipped with individually controlled heating and air conditioning, full bathrooms, emergency call bells, and select units feature kitchenettes. Residents are free to furnish their suites with familiar personal pieces, and pet companions are welcome to move in as well.
Three homestyle meals are prepared daily and served restaurant-style in the main dining room, with options tailored to individual dietary needs. Daily life includes a rotating calendar of social and recreational activities such as arts and crafts, cooking demonstrations, bingo, movie screenings in the on-site theater, and quiet time in the library. Scheduled transport takes residents out for shopping errands, medical appointments, and group outings.
Care services are staffed around the clock to support personal hygiene, dressing, mobility, and medication tracking. Physical, occupational, and speech therapy sessions are available on site to help residents regain or retain their mobility and strength. The community also features The Bridges, a secured memory care wing specifically arranged with familiar routines, specialized activities, and safe outdoor access for individuals living with Alzheimer's disease or dementia.

A wonderful community, great staff and lovely residents. I really enjoyed performing for them and seeing the smiles on their faces.
Working with the team at Spring Oak Toms River has always been a pleasure. They communicate well, treat vendors with respect, and make every visit easy. The community is exceptionally clean, and the residents seem genuinely comfortable and happy there.
Spring Oak Toms River is a very well-run community. From a vendor’s perspective, the staff is responsive, professional, and easy to coordinate with. The building is always clean and inviting, and the residents appear to be well cared for and enjoying their home.
We moved my mother into Spring Oak in September when living on her own became too challenging. I toured over a dozen facilities in Monmouth and Ocean counties, narrowed it down to a few. Toured those facilities with Mom so she could decide where she felt most comfortable. Spring Oak stood out, with a good combination of staff (capable, friendly, helpful, and caring), competitive pricing, location, facilities and provided services. Jessica and Krystal were absolutely amazing in assisting with move-in. As with any move, transition was challenging. Jessica and Krystal continued to support. The nursing team was attentive in assisting with Mom’s medical needs. On site therapists, Tom Scerbo and team are making a huge difference in Mom’s physical and mental comfort. The staff is very friendly and her overall care seems to be top shelf. Her aids check in on her throughout the day helping out as needed. Its been over 2 months since the move and she is now very much settled in and content. Mom advises she likes the food very much. Although she prefers to not participate much, maybe eventually …..there are all kinds of daily activity options. Huge thanks to all of the staff at Spring Oak, they are fantastic.
