Corte Madera — answered.
What levels of care does Áegis Living Corte Madera offer?
Our Corte Madera community offers a full continuum of care, including Light Assisted Living, Assisted Living, Transitional Care, Memory Care, Respite Care, and Hospice Care. This breadth means residents can age in place and receive customized support as their needs evolve, and couples with different care needs can often stay together in the same community.
Do you provide memory care, and how is it structured here?
Yes, Áegis Living Corte Madera offers dedicated Memory Care for residents living with Alzheimer's or other forms of dementia. Residents benefit from 24/7 care, daily onsite nurses, and life enrichment programming — including music therapy and art classes — that is thoughtfully adapted to support cognitive engagement and well-being.
How does pricing work at Áegis Living Corte Madera?
Pricing is based on your chosen apartment plus a personalized care assessment — we bill for care services as they are actually needed, rather than charging one flat rate for everyone. As care needs change over time, the care portion is adjusted accordingly. We're happy to walk you through current rates and a personalized estimate during a visit.
What apartment options are available?
Residents can choose from Studio, Studio Plan 2, One Bedroom, Two Bedroom, and Bedroom floor plans, giving flexibility for singles, couples, or those who'd like a bit more space. Each apartment is situated within a large building featuring sunny lounges, a bistro, library, and courtyard, so private space is paired with plenty of inviting common areas.
What is the dining experience like?
Dining is a true highlight here — seasonal menus are designed by dietitians using local produce, and all-day dining means residents can eat on their own schedule. The kitchen accommodates dietary needs like gluten-free, vegetarian, and low-sodium, welcomes off-menu requests, and families frequently gather in our private dining rooms for shared meals.
What kinds of activities and outings can residents expect?
The Life Enrichment team curates more than 200 activities each month, including music therapy, art classes, jewelry-making, bingo, cultural lectures, and TED Talks. Group outings take residents to local beaches, symphonies, and baseball games, and residents can choose how social or restful they'd like each day to be.
Are pets allowed at Áegis Living Corte Madera?
Yes — pets are warmly welcomed, both as residents' companions and as visitors. Family members are encouraged to bring their pets along when they visit, which adds to the homey, friendly atmosphere throughout the community.
How are safety and staffing handled?
The community provides 24/7 care with onsite nurses available daily, and is well known in Marin for its consistent, long-tenured staff — meaning residents and families see familiar faces day in and day out. An onsite PT center also supports residents' strength, balance, and fall prevention.
Do you offer short-term stays or a way to try the community first?
Yes, we offer Respite Care, which is a short-term stay option ideal for trying out the community, recovering after a hospital stay, or giving a family caregiver a break. Respite residents enjoy the same dining, activities, and care services as long-term residents.
What are visiting hours, and where is the community located?
Áegis Living Corte Madera is set in a quiet residential area of Corte Madera, just outside San Francisco and convenient for Marin County families. Families are encouraged to visit often — pets included — and to join loved ones for meals in the private dining rooms or for activities on the community calendar.
