Independent Living Services at the Headlands Apartments
The Redwoods offers a vibrant independent living community designed to empower seniors to live life to the fullest. Explore the services, amenities, and resident life, and discover how we enable residents’ independent lifestyles.
The Headlands offers one-bedroom independent living apartments for seniors.They feature full kitchenettes, private balconies, and patios with beautiful views of Mt. Tamalpis and Richardson Bay, all nestled within our expansive 10-acre campus. Residents of the independent living community enjoy: the natural beauty and tranquility of the flat, level, walking paths; getting their hands in the dirt in the elevated, organic flower and vegetable garden beds, as well as the succulent garden and potting corner; spotting wildlife along the marsh; taking in the serene views of Mt. Tamalpais from one of the many benches strategically located throughout; enjoying the sun from our terrace or their individual patios, as well as listening to the high school sports teams compete across the street.
Residents in our Independent living apartments enjoy maintaining and enhancing life-long routines. Based on a whole-person wellness model, our resident-driven programs and independent living services are designed to meet the unique health, wellness, and leisure needs of seniors. From physical fitness classes to intellectually stimulating activities, emotional support groups, social events, and spiritual gatherings, our comprehensive programs ensure that residents can thrive in every aspect of their lives.
They take advantage of films and lectures in the auditorium, read and play cards in the library, socialize in the lobby and on the terrace, share in the poetry corner, expand skills in the art room, host all sorts of entertaining and educational sessions in the meeting lounges, and use the studio, gym, spa, and therapy pool in the Wellness Center. Often, volunteers visit from the nearby high school and middle schools. Residents enjoy the shops across the street and walks along the trails and adjacent marsh and parks.
Some take advantage of the meals, laundry, or housekeeping services (which are available for an additional fee), but most continue their own chores. For assistance with personal care needs, many residents had previous caregiver relationships, which they continue at The Redwoods, while some hire a private caregiver from our vetted list to ensure they receive the perfect balance of independence and support.
The Health Care Center at The Redwoods offers a variety of care options with nursing staff onsite 24/7. Our programs include occupational therapy, physical therapy, speech therapy, music, dance, art, and other individualized programs & activities for short and long-term stays, as well as comfort, palliative, and hospice care services in collaboration with the area’s premier providers.
