California Spanish Mission-Inspired Design

Opening September 2nd, Aegis Living San Rafael will bring the warmth and beauty of California Mission Revival architecture to the heart of downtown. Inspired by the historic Spanish missions, our new community features a stucco exterior, gabled red terracotta tile roof, arched entryways, and a spectacular fireplace clad in hand-painted ceramic tiles. A signature blue-tiled buttressed bell tower, terraces with stunning views, and serene garden spaces invite relaxation and connection.

While the building will be brand new, Aegis Living brings over 25 years of expertise in Assisted Living and Advanced Memory Care. We offer customized solutions for couples with different care needs, 24/7 onsite certified care managers and nurses, and chef-prepared meals designed by a Registered Dietician—all complemented by over 200 monthly activities led by our Life Enrichment Directors. And an offering of next-level wellness amenities that is unmatched in the industry.

Their Loved Ones Have to Say

We have had nothing but a positive experience. Aegis stepped in when I could no longer give Mom the care she needed. This gave me peace of mind that she was surrounded by the wonderful staff who made her feel like family and who I could trust with her and who also continue to make her experience here so positive. The Life Enrichment team plans so many fun experiences for the residents. There is always a smile on the residents when they are involved doing the activities. Mom is now in her final steps of life and knowing she’s getting the love and care they provide here at Aegis makes my heart so happy. I have nothing but positive things to say about this place. I highly recommend for your family when needed.

Dana C., Daughter of Resident

Like so many of us seniors, my wife and I were quite reluctant to give up our own home when it became clear that we could no longer live on our own. After looking at a number of places we decided to join Aegis. We could not have made a better decision, and the only question was ‘why didn’t we come here earlier?’ The quality of care here is second to none, the atmosphere among our fellow seniors is most pleasant, and the interaction with staff is genuinely cordial. And, of course, the meals here are like in a first class restaurant, served with grace and professionalism. We are kept busy, in the best way possible, with activities ranging from daily exercise classes to book readings to crafts to first rate movies, even bingo—something for everybody here.

Wolfgang M., Resident

I cannot recommend Aegis enough!!! I’m so grateful my Dad was able to live here as long as he did. Literally every staff member is so caring and goes above and beyond! Not to mention, the entire place is beyond gorgeous and luxurious. It was always such a pleasure to visit and sit by the fire or have a meal in the gorgeous dining room. Their food is fantastic! My Dad loved the attention and care he received there, especially the daily music which is his greatest happiness. Aside from the many fun activities, they have a wonderful music therapist on staff which brought my Dad immense joy. Anyone would be very lucky to have their loved one here!

Did you know we offer short-term stays for seniors? Whether you are heading off on a much-needed vacation, need temporary support for a few days, or just need a break for a few hours a day, your loved one can enjoy everything our vibrant communities offer. You can relax knowing they are being safely cared for by an experienced and dedicated team.

We’re here when you need a break.
In the final stages of life, when a cure is beyond reach, Aegis Living’s hospice program offers dignified End-of-Life Care. We join forces with a trusted local hospice provider, either chosen by the family or recommended by the community, to offer comforting care and supportive services to your loved one during this challenging time. Through a coordinated care plan, hospice services complement and layer on top of our daily basic care offerings, delivering comprehensive support tailored to the resident’s specific requirements.
If your loved one is experiencing mild or early signs of memory loss, you may assume that designated Memory Care is their only choice. It’s not. At Aegis Living, we offer an alternative approach through Transitional Care. Unlike most senior housing providers, we defy the assumption that early signs of memory loss mandate a move into dedicated Memory Care. Our program supports residents who are not ready to move full-time into our Life’s Neighborhood Memory Care. Our communities are designed to safely maintain a sense of independence, enabling those with mild to moderate memory loss to remain in assisted living if that is where they feel most comfortable. Our supportive team members are specially trained to help them tackle memory loss challenges while keeping their independence.
Known for our expertise in Memory Care, we offer a spectrum of options for seniors diagnosed with Alzheimer’s and other dementias. For those with mild to moderate memory loss, we offer transitional Assisted Living. For those with more advanced memory loss, we have a dedicated Memory Care section of our community, called Life’s Neighborhood. Our around-the-clock, compassionate team provides personalized care to meet our residents wherever they are, and our rich programming includes recreational and social activities to keep residents active, engaged, and making new friends. Our team is here to support our residents’ families too; over the decades, we have supported and educated thousands of families through the journey.
If you or your loved one are no longer safe or thriving living independently, Assisted Living offers flexible levels of support and a true community. Our Assisted Living communities are staffed by kind and skilled caregivers, available around the clock for whatever residents need. This may be very little for now but we are also able to accommodate a very high level of care. Meanwhile, with cooking, transportation, housekeeping, and laundry taken care of, residents can relax and enjoy all life has to offer.
In Light Assisted Living, we celebrate the spirit of independence and inspire you or your loved one to live life to the fullest. With a focus on providing the right balance of assistance and autonomy, our dedicated team is committed to helping residents thrive in their warm and welcoming new home. From a robust calendar of engaging activities to a community full of new neighbors and friends to meet, we are here to make life easier and more enjoyable.
