The Problem

Families Can't Tell What Care You Offer or How to Visit

It shows up when an adult child compares communities on a lunch break. They need care levels, floor plans, and a tour time before a hospital discharge forces the decision.

  1. 01 · Care levels

    Families can't tell whether you offer memory care.

    Each care level gets its own page saying who it suits.

  2. 02 · Floor plans

    Nobody can see what a one-bedroom apartment looks like.

    Floor plans and photo tours show real apartments, room by room.

  3. 03 · Tours

    Tour requests wait in an inbox until someone calls back.

    Families pick a tour time online, and your sales director hears about it right away.

  4. 04 · Readability

    Small gray text defeats residents reading along with family.

    Large type, strong contrast, and big buttons on every page.

A daughter is comparing three communities on her phone between meetings. Her father leaves rehab next week. Your site shows smiling residents and the word lifestyle on every page. She can't tell whether you offer memory care, what a one-bedroom looks like, or whether tours run on Saturdays. The contact form only promises that someone will be in touch. So she calls the community down the road, and they book her for Thursday.

We start with the questions families ask before they visit: what care you provide, what the apartments look like, and when they can tour. Each care level gets its own page in plain words. Floor plans and photo tours show real apartments. Tour requests offer actual time slots and go straight to your sales director's phone. Families book a visit while they're still on your page, not after a day of phone tag.

  • Care levels explained plainly

    Independent living, assisted living, and memory care each get a page saying who they suit and what's included.

  • Tours booked online

    Families pick a tour time on the page, and the request reaches your sales director right away.

  • Type older eyes can read

    Body text of 18px or larger, strong contrast, and large buttons on every page of the site.

Our Senior Living Website Design Process

From Community Review to Booked Tours in Five Steps

You sign off on the sitemap, care level copy, design prototype, and staging site. Your sales director books a test tour before anything goes live.

  1. We review your current site, how tour requests reach your team, and which care levels have open apartments. You get a sitemap, a tour request plan, and a fixed price for the build.

Projects We've Built

A healthcare website, property sites with photo-rich listings, and a wellness app from our portfolio. None was a senior living community, but each showed spaces or booked visits.

What Our Clients Say

What Clients Say After Launch

Feedback from teams we have built websites and booking flows for.

We had a pretty specific idea of what we wanted our website to become, but I wasn’t sure how easily we could explain all of it to a development team. There were quite a few moving parts, and we were working toward a deadline, so I expected a few things to get lost along the way. That never really happened. They understood what we were trying to achieve, kept us updated throughout the process, and got everything ready within the agreed timeline. The final site feels much easier to navigate, works beautifully on mobile, and is noticeably smoother for our customers. It was a huge relief seeing the original idea actually turn into the website we had in mind.

Work Culture

Why Senior Living Communities Trust Us With Their Website

Families make this choice under pressure, often for a parent who can't do the research. These habits keep your site honest, readable, and quick to answer them.

  • Fair Housing-safe copy

    We check headlines, photos, and captions against Fair Housing advertising rules before launch. Copy that hints at preferring certain residents creates risk your executive director doesn't need.

  • Readability tested, not assumed

    We test pages at 200% zoom and on older tablets, because many residents read along with their families. Small gray text loses both audiences at once.

  • Claims confirmed by your team

    Care services, staffing, licensing, and dining details go live only after your executive director confirms them. We publish pricing or occupancy figures only when you supply them.

  • Tour requests routed fast

    We route each tour request to the person who can confirm it, with a text or email alert. Families get an answer while they're still deciding.

  • Honest about templates

    If a senior living template vendor already covers a single small community, we'll tell you before we quote. A good template plus fresh photos can be enough.

  • Accounts in your name

    Domain, hosting, analytics, and call tracking numbers stay in your community's name. If you change agencies or operators, the site and its history go with you.

Good fit

  • Assisted living communities

    Your occupancy depends on tours, and families keep calling to ask what assisted living includes because your website never says it clearly.

  • Memory care providers

    You offer secure memory care, and families need to understand your approach, staffing, and safety features before they'll book a visit.

  • Nursing homes and skilled nursing

    You need nursing home website design that separates short-term rehab from long-term care, so discharge planners and families find the right page.

  • Operators with several communities

    You run several communities under one brand, and each needs its own floor plans, tour calendar, and staff while sharing one site.

  • Senior care marketing agencies

    You market senior care and need a partner for senior care web design who understands Fair Housing review and tour routing.

Not a fit

  • Hospital or health system

    You run a hospital rather than a residential community. Our Hospital Website Design page covers service lines, directories, and price transparency.

  • Lead follow-up only

    Your site is fine, but tour leads get lost between staff. Our Healthcare CRM Setup service fixes the follow-up without a new website.

  • Resident care portal

    You need a family portal tied to resident care notes and medication records. That's care management software, not a website build.

  • Budget under $1,250

    Your budget is under $1,250, or your management company provides a site that already books tours. Keeping it is the cheaper choice.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Straight answers on cost, timing, Fair Housing rules, tours, readability, and lead tracking for senior living sites.

  • Our senior living sites start at $1,250 for one community with care level pages, online tour requests, and Fair Housing-checked copy. Communities that want floor plans, virtual tours, and CRM routing start at $3,100. Operators with up to 6 communities start at $5,900. Every price is fixed after a free discovery call.

  • Most assisted living sites launch in 4 to 9 weeks. A single community takes about 4 to 5 weeks. Floor plans, virtual tours, and CRM routing add about 2 weeks, and multi-community sites take the full 9. Photos of real apartments cause the most delays, so we plan the photo shoot early.

  • They work as the first visit before the real one. Families research care levels, look at apartments, and read reviews, then request a tour or call. A strong senior living website answers those questions in that order and sends every tour request to someone who can confirm it the same day.

  • There's no honest universal number, because calls depend on your market, occupancy, and traffic. What you can do is measure it. Call tracking numbers by page and campaign show which pages produce calls and tours, so you can compare monthly calls and tour requests with your occupancy goals.

  • The Fair Housing Act bars ads that state a preference or limitation based on a protected class, including disability and familial status. Age limits are allowed only for communities that qualify as housing for older persons, such as 55+ communities meeting HUD's rules. We check copy, photos, and captions, and your counsel confirms.

  • It helps when you can. Families shortlist communities they can afford, and a starting monthly rate or a range filters out poor fits before a tour. If your rates vary too much, explain what drives cost at each care level and invite a pricing call. We publish only figures your team supplies.

  • Assisted living web design should treat older readers as a core audience, not an edge case. We use body text of 18px or larger, strong contrast, large buttons, and layouts that still work at 200% zoom. We also test with screen readers and check templates against WCAG 2.1 AA.

  • Usually, yes. Most senior living CRMs accept leads through a web form, an email-to-lead address, or an API. We send each request with the care level, preferred time, and source page, then test it with your sales team. If your CRM has no supported path, we use email alerts and a weekly export.

  • It differs in three ways: the reader, the rules, and the goal. Adult children research for a parent under time pressure, Fair Housing rules shape the copy, and success is a booked tour rather than a sale. General designers often miss all three, so pages look nice while tours stay flat.

  • You get 30, 60, or 90 days of fixes and staff coaching after launch, depending on your plan. Your team then updates photos, events, and openings in the CMS, or a care plan covers edits and backups. Domain, hosting, and call tracking numbers stay in your community's name.
