Apartment Design at Veranda Club in Boca Raton, FL

According to the American Health Care Association, more than one million seniors currently live in senior living communities across the United States. The elderly population continues to grow as older adults look for lifestyle choices that blend independence with support. With this shift comes a greater need for senior apartment design that puts a focus on creating living spaces that are as functional as they are aesthetically pleasing. 

At the Veranda Club in Boca Raton, FL, our apartment design is more than aesthetics. It's about cultivating comfort and a true sense of home. Every detail is carefully considered, from layout to lighting to finishes. 

This blog will talk about how senior communities like the Veranda Club are redefining what senior living in Florida looks like. We'll talk about some of the purposeful design choices we've made in our senior apartment layouts to improve our residents' quality of life. 

Explore the Benefits of Thoughtful Senior Apartment Design

Putting care and attention to every aspect in senior apartment design is important, as it directly impacts their lives. Some of the things apartment design has an impact on include:

• Overall well-being
• Comfort
• Independence 
• Safety 

According to WebMD, 35% of older adults experience a significant fall each year. Aging-friendly floor plans need to be designed in a way that reduces the risk of them falling and injuring themselves. 

Additionally, a well-designed senior living apartment helps seniors maintain their routine without needing a lot of assistance. A few simple touches that can make completing everyday tasks more manageable are:

• Intuitive layouts
• Accessible appliances
• Easy-to-reach storage

Senior apartments and the communities they're a part of make it easier for residents to interact with each other. Many seniors deal with feelings of isolation and loneliness, especially when living on their own. Living in an apartment that's close to common areas makes it easier for seniors to join activities and interact with their neighbors.

Ideas for Decorating Your Senior Apartment

Congratulations! You've decided to make Veranda Club your new home. While our apartment units are ready to move into, you may want to bring some personal items to make the space feel like home. 

The main thing to keep in mind when decorating your space is not to overcrowd it. Our apartments feature spacious floor plans, but you don't want to create unnecessary tripping hazards by placing too many items on the floor. 

One way to combat this is by keeping a lot of your items in storage. You can swap out your belongings throughout the year to keep it fresh. 

Other tips for decorating your senior apartment include:

• Choose furniture that has arms and adequate support 
• Install handrails in areas where you need them
• Consider placing motion-sensor lights in dark rooms
• Place non-skid rugs throughout 
• Arrange your furniture to ensure clear pathways

We also recommend keeping your frequently used items within easy reach. This includes your:

• Medications
• Phone
• Remote
