Below is its public state record — license, star-rating history, posted inspections and penalties — plus local cost context and what to ask on a tour.

Is Oakbridge Terrace @ Matthews Glen licensed in North Carolina?

Yes. Oakbridge Terrace @ Matthews Glen holds North Carolina adult care home license HAL-060-167 from the DHSR Adult Care Licensure Section and appears on the state's current licensed listing, with 99 beds at 701 Plantation Estates Drive in Matthews.

The licensee of record is Acts Retirement Life Communities, Inc.. An adult care home is North Carolina's assisted living license: personal care, medication administration and supervision under 10A NCAC 13F — not 24-hour skilled nursing, which requires a nursing home license under 10A NCAC 13D.

What star rating does North Carolina give Oakbridge Terrace @ Matthews Glen?

Oakbridge Terrace @ Matthews Glen's current DHSR star rating is four stars (score 104.50), issued October 27, 2025 after a annual inspection. The previous rating was also four stars.

North Carolina rates every adult care home 0-4 stars from inspection points (100 base points, plus merits for rule-exceeding performance and minus demerits for violations); four stars requires 100+ points on two consecutive annual surveys. In Mecklenburg County, 13 of 39 rated adult care homes currently hold four stars. The rating is the state's — we do not rate facilities.

Has Oakbridge Terrace @ Matthews Glen been penalized by North Carolina regulators?

No. DHSR reports no administrative penalties for Oakbridge Terrace @ Matthews Glen in the last 36 months — the period the state publishes — and the facility's own DHSR record states it has not received any penalties in the last three years.

That is a good sign, not a guarantee. Inspection findings below the penalty threshold still appear as Statements of Deficiencies, covered in the next section. Check the current penalty listing before you sign.

Does Oakbridge Terrace @ Matthews Glen offer memory care?
