The Census Bureau reports that from 2023 to 2024, the population age 65 and older rose by 3.1%, reaching 61.2 million. At the same time, the population under 18 decreased slightly. This growing shift highlights the increasing importance of safe and comfortable spaces for older adults.

 

At Carter Place in Blair, Nebraska, apartment design supports daily ease, freedom, and connection. Everything is made to help seniors feel at home. Our apartments are built for comfort and independence, from open layouts to thoughtful safety features. Read on to learn more.

 

Spacious Apartments for Every Lifestyle

We offer roomy apartments designed for seniors with all kinds of needs. Whether you prefer cozy accessible layouts or extra spaces for furniture, there's a fit for your lifestyle. Our floor plans allow you to create a space that feels like yours.

 

Rooms are easy to arrange and personalize with your favorite items. You can bring bookshelves or special mementos that matter most to you. Each apartment is built to feel:

  • Warm
  • Peaceful
  • Private

Large windows let in natural light and open up the space. You'll find quiet areas for rest and room for guests to visit. The thoughtful apartment design makes daily life more enjoyable.

 

Accessible Bathrooms Designed for Comfort

Each apartment features a bathroom designed for both safety and convenience. Walk-in, no-threshold showers help reduce the chance of slipping or tripping. There's also space to use a shower chair or stool if needed.

 

All surfaces are non-slip, even when wet. Residents therefore enjoy a safe and steady experience while bathing or getting ready. An accessible whirlpool bath is also available to support comfort and relaxation.

 

Bathrooms are also easy to move around in, with plenty of space to turn or reach items, thanks to the assisted living floor plans. Everything from lighting to faucet height is chosen to reduce strain. Even the doorways are wide enough to allow easier movement if mobility changes over time.

 

Weekly Housekeeping and Linen Service

A clean space brings peace of mind. That's why we offer weekly housekeeping and linen service. We take care of the chores so residents can focus on enjoying their day.

 

Your sheets and towels are changed regularly. Floors are frequently cleaned, and surfaces are wiped down to maintain a fresh space. It's one less thing for you or your family to worry about.

 

Some people find that coming home to a tidy apartment helps them feel calm and settled. You can enjoy your favorite chair, read a book, or spend time with neighbors without the stress of cleaning. The result is a peaceful space that always feels welcoming.

 

Storage That Fits Your Life

Your belongings tell your story. Our senior-friendly housing in Blair caters to this need. There's room for clothing, photos, and everything in between. Here's how we provide that fits your life:

  • Closets are deep enough for personal keepsakes
  • Shelving helps organize essentials for everyday use
  • Drawers are easy to pull without strain
  • Storage is positioned within easy reach to avoid bending or stretching

This kind of smart storage makes daily life smoother. Whether you're getting dressed or packing a gift for a loved one, everything you need is right where it should be. You won't have to worry about clutter or losing important items.

 

Safety and Peace of Mind Around the Clock

Safety matters in every corner of your home. At Carter Place, our community boasts senior apartment features that support 24/7 peace of mind. Whether it's early morning or late at night, help is always close by.

 

We have a 24-hour emergency response system in every apartment. As such, if you need help, a caring staff member is just a call away. Fast support gives comfortto both residents and their families.

 

Staff members are trained to assist while respecting your independence. You can live freely while knowing support is nearby when needed. Apartment design makes this care feel natural, not intrusive.

 

A Home That Welcomes Your Pets

Many seniors find joy and peace in the company of pets. We understand this and welcome furry companions in our pet-friendly apartments. We believe that aging-in-place design should support the full lifestyle of every resident -- including time with pets.

 

According to Lynette Hart, PhD, of the UC Davis School of Veterinary Medicine, "Alzheimer's patients tend to have fewer anxious outbursts if there is an animal in the home." That calming effect can bring comfort to many older adults. Here's how our community caters to seniors with pets:

  • Dogs, cats, or other small pets are welcome
  • Outdoor areas make walks safe and easy
  • Cleaning services help with pet-related messes
  • Apartment materials are chosen to be pet-friendly

Your pet can remain a cherished part of your routine. Whether it's a cuddle on the couch or a walk outside, you can continue enjoying that bond. These small details help keep both residents and pets healthy and happy.

 

A Community That Feels Like a Vacation

Life at Carter Place combines privacy with opportunities to socialize. Each apartment is your own space, but you're never far from fun, friends, or fresh air. Our community is designed to feel welcoming and relaxed.

 

Enjoy restaurant-style dining with meals served daily. Join in on group activities or community events without going far from home. There's always something to do if you choose.

 

The landscaped grounds are perfect for walks or quiet mornings. Inside, cozy gathering spaces encourage conversation and connection. A balance of comfort and community is part of every apartment design.
