Great staff. They stay very engaged with the residence. The life guidance team is awesome mom's been a resident there for 4 years and she's well taken care of

Response from the owner

We are grateful to hear how well your mom has settled into our community over these four years. It sounds like our life guidance team has really made a difference, and that kind of long-term connection is what we hope for with every family. Knowing she feels well cared for means everything to us. Those daily interactions and genuine relationships are at the heart of what makes this place special.

Our 99 year old mom moved into Life Guidance at Atria Tamalpais Creek in November 2025. She has dementia where it was getting harder to care for her at home. She now has a cozy bedroom, 3 full meals a day, and has made friends with residents and staff. She has more energy, strength and vitality now than she's had in years!! We will be celebrating her 100th birthday in August in the lovely, shady fenced in yard. The majority of our family live near by and she gets many visits. Even our dogs can visit! Tamalpais Creek is a beautiful, comfortable and welcoming place. It's a vibe. My sister and I felt it the first time we visited and so did our mom. Marufa Tanzin, Life guidance director and many of the staff-- Alvin, Sandra, Roselle, Maria, Aner, Josef, Linda, Joy, there are more-- who care for her and the other residents with compassionate care. A shoutout to Helen Bond, Engage Life Director, for coordinating fun and energizing events and parties for all the residents. We are so grateful to you all for taking care of our mom!

Your positive experience brings such joy to our hearts. What a milestone to celebrate your mom's upcoming 100th birthday here! The transformation you describe - seeing her renewed energy and vitality - reminds us why we love what we do. It sounds like she's truly found her place in our community, and those friendships she's built with both residents and staff make all the difference. We're honored to be part of this special chapter in her life.

We are grateful to hear how well your mom has settled into our community! It sounds like she's truly found her place here, and there's nothing quite like seeing the sparkle in residents' eyes when they talk about their new friendships over dinner. The connections formed during those shared meals and daily activities really do make all the difference in creating a warm, welcoming home.

I can't say enough about how incredible Atria Tamalpais Creek is. From the moment we met the Director, health care professionals and extend staff we knew that our loved one was in the best hands possible. We brought our loved one to this wonderful place shortly before the pandemic lockdown last March. The thought that we had just made this major transition, and now would not be able to visit our loved one would have been unbearable, yet the staff at Atria Tamalpias had a plan that consistently kept us updated on everything they were doing to keep all the residents engaged and safe, and kept family members aware of every new possibility of socially distanced visits with our loved ones. All calls of concerned were returned and addressed quickly. Corrine, Jocelyn, Wendy and the entire staff are angles from heaven, treating my most treasured family member as one of there own. During the many video, window and patio visits I have had with my loved one, I have come to learn from her directly about the sensitive, patient and loving care she has and continues to receive. I can not express enough the deep gratitude and appreciation I have for this truly resident and family focused environment. It is a very special place with very special people. Thank you to everyone at Atria Tamalpias Creek.
