    About Atria Tamalpais Creek

    Atria Tamalpais Creek sits in Novato, California, on a lovely garden property close to shopping, churches, medical spots, and entertainment, so it's easy to get around and there's always something nearby if you feel like getting out. This community offers several kinds of senior living-independent living for folks wanting maintenance-free homes, assisted living for those who need help with daily tasks like bathing, grooming, or medication, and a special secure Life Guidance® memory care area for residents with Alzheimer's or other kinds of dementia. They even have skilled nursing for people needing more involved medical care than assisted living can provide. The management team's got lots of experience, and the staff go through professional caregiver training.

    The place has modern safety features like the Saflok® electronic key-entry, wireless internet from one end of the place to the other, and a sustainable design with LEED silver certification, which means it's energy efficient and eco-friendly. Residents can use a rejuvenating day spa with massage therapy, a full-service salon for hair and nails, and a fitness center with senior-friendly equipment and instructors who know what they're doing. For folks who like to socialize or stay busy, there's a full calendar of Engage Life® events, from art classes to yoga, with activities indoors and out, plus spaces for meetings, gatherings, or just sitting by the outdoor courtyard's fountain. The courtyard, front deck with fireplace, and outdoor grilling spaces make it easy to spend time with friends or family, and the raised gardening beds and walking paths offer fresh air and a peaceful spot to relax.

    The movie room, library, bistro, and restaurant-style dining with chef-prepared meals (including vegetarian choices) give everyone choices on how they spend their days. Residents who want quiet have a cognitive fitness center and a TV lounge, while those who love entertainment can enjoy live piano music or the state-of-the-art cinema. Pets are welcome, and homes come with features like a wet bar, walk-in closet, and balcony or patio. There's no buy-in fee, and you pay month-to-month, so it's flexible. Atria Tamalpais Creek also has transportation options and parking, guest meals, laundry and housekeeping, and room service. Staff are ready to provide help with personal care as needed, and there's hospice and respite care if it's required. With specialized memory care, medical support, and an active event schedule, the community focuses on keeping seniors comfortable, safe, and connected with others.
