    Beautiful campus, friendly staff, pricey

    I live(d) here and overall the campus is gorgeous, very clean and well kept - bright, roomy apartments, friendly staff who know you by name, and plenty of amenities (indoor/outdoor pools, exercise room, clubs, trips and an on-site medical clinic/shuttle). Dining is restaurant-style with many choices, though several residents said the food has declined. It's expensive with high buy-ins, long waiting lists and a pay-up-front model; assisted/specialty care and management communication have been uneven in some cases. Construction and expansion promise more options, but I'd weigh the costs and contract guarantees carefully. Overall warm, active community with attentive staff, but plan for potential surprises around long-term care.

    About Matthews Glen

    Matthews Glen sits in Matthews and provides several types of care all on one campus, because it's part of the Acts Retirement Life Community and a continuing care retirement community, which means folks can move in when they're active and healthy at 55 or older and then stay as their needs change, whether they go from independent living to assisted living, memory care, or skilled nursing. Residents can pick from different floor plans that suit their needs and want, and the place has amenities set up to make life easier and more enjoyable, giving plenty of options to keep busy or to just relax, and staff help with daily activities when needed in assisted living. Those with Alzheimer's or other dementias get specialized memory care in a safe part of the community, and if someone needs higher-level medical care, skilled nursing and rehabilitation therapy are available right there on site. The community keeps a steady financial model, so folks know what to expect when it comes to costs, and a satisfaction rating of 96% shows that most residents seem pleased with what they experience. Matthews Glen is open weekdays from 9 in the morning until 5 in the afternoon, and more details are listed on its website at actsretirement.org/communities/north-carolina/matthews-glen-matthews.
