About

Atria Tamalpais Creek

Atria Tamalpais Creek is a licensed residential care elderly located in Novato, California. Residential Care Facilities for the Elderly (RCFE) provide non-medical care and supervision in a homelike setting for people 60 years and older who are unable to live independently.

Atria Tamalpais Creek has a licensed capacity of 180 residents. Services include assistance with activities of daily living (ADLs) such as bathing, dressing, grooming, and medication management. RCFEs also provide meals, housekeeping, laundry, social activities, and 24-hour supervision. Many offer specialized care for residents with memory impairment.

Who We Serve: RCFEs serve older adults who need assistance with daily activities but do not require 24-hour skilled nursing care. Residents may include those with early to mid-stage dementia, mobility limitations, or chronic health conditions.

Licensing: RCFEs in California are typically licensed by the Community Care Licensing Division of the California Department of Social Services under Title 22 of the California Code of Regulations.

Payment Options: In California, Medicaid may help pay for assisted living through the Assisted Living Waiver (ALW). Eligibility is based on both financial and functional criteria. Contact California Department of Health Care Services or visit https://www.dhcs.ca.gov/services/ltc/Pages/AssistedLivingWaiver.aspx to learn about eligibility requirements and how to apply. Wait lists are common for waiver programs, so applying early is recommended.

Families researching assisted living options should verify the facility's current license status, review any inspection reports, and schedule a visit to assess whether the environment and services meet their loved one's needs. You can verify this facility's license and view inspection reports at California's facility search. For more information about assisted living regulations in California, visit California Department of Social Services, Community Care Licensing Division.

Licensing requirements and regulations may change. We recommend verifying current requirements directly with your state's licensing agency.

I want to give a big shoutout to Cory Mundy, the Maintenance Director at Atria Tamalpais Creek.

His dedication shows in everything he does — from quickly addressing maintenance issues to making sure the environment stays safe, functional, and comfortable for everyone. He’s not just responsive and dependable — he brings a level of professionalism and compassion that makes a real difference.

We unexpectedly had to move my mother into assisted living in a short amount of time. We lucked out finding Atria Tamalpais Creek. It in a beautiful setting. The rooms are very nice. They have so many things for the residents to do. The staff is exceptional from the kitchen/dining to management. I can't say enough good things about Atria.

Overall, this place is excellent! The Managers are so talented at what they do: Recreational Activities, Care and Medical, Finance, Reception, Transportation, Sales/Community Outreach...and the "floor staff" seem at ease, well-matched to their position, and friendly. I am writing as the family member most involved with the care of my Mother, and as a former long-time employee of places very similar to Atria Tam Creek. My Mother has been there about 3 months. It was not always an easy adjustment for my Mother and I, but we have been met MORE than halfway by all the people working there, up to, and including, the superb Executive Director. The food is the best I have tasted in "institutional" fare--more like a good restaurant...day after day! (I know because I visit 2 x week, joining or at least tasting meals.) The Dining Staff are ALWAYS kind; the Chef and whomever is behind the scenes in that kitchen are, again, talented! Furthermore, I know firsthand that Atria Tam Creek's food is better than places costing considerably more. Here's to good times for my Mom. Thank you Atria!

My mom has been at Atria since Dec 1st, 2023. It has been a huge life transition for her but Atria has been there for her every step of the way. We picked Atria Tamalpais Creek because of the friendly staff and the beauty of the surrounding redwood trees. The facility is neat and clean and close to downtown Novato. This location has received a number of awards and from the beginning, I felt confident that my mom would be well taken care of. She has met quite a few new friends and enjoys the exercise classes, music programs and planned activities at Atria. She feels loved and heard and often speaks highly of the entire staff, from Katie, Atria's Sales Manager to Jessica, Community Care Manager. They treat her like she is their mom. She loves the chef and the staff are so attentive and caring. I visit 3-4 times a week and I feel that the level of care and customer service is always consistent. We are very happy to be at Atria!
