Neptune Gardens Nursing And Rehab sits at 101 Walnut St in Neptune, New Jersey, and people around here also know it as Jersey Shore Post Acute, which makes sense since it has a pretty big focus on skilled nursing and rehab. This place has both short-term rehab and long-term nursing care, and for folks who need help after a hospital stay, the rehab team-people say they're caring and top-notch-offers physical, occupational, and speech therapy, sometimes even with peritoneal dialysis. The medical director is attentive, and staff include RNs, LPNs, and CNAs, all working together with specialists to make care plans for every resident, and they really aim to keep things tailored for each person's needs, paying attention to all the parts of daily living like medication management, help with dressing, bathing, and moving around, with a 24-hour care system in place.
The building itself is clean and organized, with a bit of that fancy hotel feel but still homey, which you notice because everything smells good and looks well-kept, and you see the common areas like the arts room, game room, library, and even a movie theater, plus outdoor spots with walking paths and gardens. Residents get involved in activities, some of them run by residents themselves, like arts or fitness programs and movie nights, which helps people stay social. The rooms are already furnished, private bathrooms, little kitchenettes, cable TV, phones, air conditioning, Wi-Fi-the works to help people feel comfortable. The facility offers meal preparation with a professional chef and can handle special dietary needs, and people eat together in dining areas. Staff carry out move-in coordination, and there's an emergency alert system for safety.
For medical needs, Neptune Gardens provides skilled care with nurses available for 12 to 16 hours a day and round-the-clock supervision, and it accepts both Medicare and Medicaid. The rehab department is praised often, especially for helping residents regain strength, and they use a team approach where nurses, therapists, and other specialists work together. Of the 105 certified beds, 20 are usually available, at least as of June 2025, so it's a good-sized place but not overcrowded. Amenities are modern, with things like a fitness room, wellness spa, business center, and fast internet. The building isn't part of a CCRC, but it tries to give a sense of both independence and support, and operational hours for the front desk or main office run weekdays from 9:00 am to 5:00 pm. All in all, Neptune Gardens Nursing And Rehab keeps a focus on skilled nursing, comfortable living, and giving each resident personal attention so they can heal, recover, or stay safe in a clean and community-minded environment.
