Testimonials
As a resident of the Milford area for 76 years, SEM has always been in my life. I remember as a young boy sled-riding down the hill, chipping a front tooth. My brother, Carl, and countless friends have made use of your facilities, and now it was my turn at SEM Haven for rehab for a left-knee replacement. Your entire organization is top notch. Your philosophy is right on. We are blessed to have such a diamond in our area. Keep up the great work.
We could not have chosen a better place for dad to spend his last years, surrounded by a “second family” he came to know and love as his own.
The Eden Approach
Revitalizing Senior Living: Enriching Life
At SEM Haven, we are proud to represent the Eden Alternative, an approach to long-term senior care that creates energy, vitality, and a love of life. The Eden Alternative was created by Dr. William Thomas, a Harvard-educated physician, in 1991 with the goal of eliminating the three plagues of long-term care institutions: loneliness, helplessness, and boredom.
We believe that senior care facilities should fill their residents’ lives with joy and spontaneity. For that reason, we fill our facilities with life including a sprawling outdoor garden to help keep residents engaged and active, cats and dogs in designated areas of our facilities, and regular activities designed to combat boredom. Our goal is to give our residents everything they had during their lives before they moved into SEM Haven, so they feel at home and excited about living with us.
