"The tour we had of Milford Place was very nice. It just wasn't for us, but the place was lovely, and the lady there couldn't be nicer. My husband just felt that most of the clientele were much older than us. Almost everybody we saw was in wheelchairs, and we're not ready for that yet. Other than that, it was a beautiful place. It had lovely furniture, and the rooms were nice. It just wasn't a fit. It's an assisted living community, and we're not ready for assisted living yet. We can still do a lot of stuff on our own. The place was very attractive and had lots of flowers. It had parking, so people must park there. It had a beauty parlor and, I guess, a haircut place for men, as well. Everybody seemed to be enjoying their lunch, and the people we passed in the halls and came in contact with all seemed very happy. They did not seem down, depressed, or unhappy. They all seemed smiley. The head lady was wonderful, and the receptionist who checked us in was nice. A gentleman also came out from the kitchen with cupcakes and water for us. We met a very nice aide up by the rooms where we were looking, and he was lovely. We met the head of activities, and she was lovely, too. We looked into the dining room, and they showed us the menu of everything that we could eat. There was a menu for breakfast, and they had a lovely menu for lunch. They also had alternatives if you didn't want anything. They had a lovely dinner menu, but if you did not want what they were serving, you could always get a hot dog, a hamburger, or a sandwich. I don't know if I saw salads, but they had other things, and that's very nice. You could sit anywhere you wanted and with whoever you wanted to sit. There was no assigned seating, which was nice. You could move any way you wanted. If you want to eat alone with your husband, you could go to a two-seater. If you want to eat with five or more people, they have big tables, too. They had square tables, and they were very nicely done. For the meal times, I think they said breakfast started at 7:30 and it could go up to maybe 11:00. Then lunch started at 11:30 and it went to 1:00. Dinner started at 4:30, and then everybody is kind of finished by 6:00. I think it was very nice. You could have your own time to go in and eat. If you don't want to go down for breakfast at 7:30, which I wouldn't, you can go down later. Everybody seemed happy and the staff were very agreeable and seemed to be really nice people. The place was very clean, although a lot of stuff is being redone. It was really pleasant. It was modern and seemed up-to-date. However, instead of independent living, it was more of an assisted living where they probably bring you down for meals, or maybe an aide comes up to help you. They said there was a whole category for if you need help showering, going to the bathroom, dressing, and medication. Everything that was on that list was a no for us because we really didn't need any extra care. I thought maybe we just got into the wrong place by going to an assisted living facility instead of an independent living facility."
