Pekin Manor sits at 1520 El Camino Dr in Pekin, Illinois, and folks call it a steady place for seniors who want choices in care and living style, some days are more lively with options at AJ's Fitness Center or folks might join in on Memory Lane activities for the mind, and if somebody needs extra support with daily things like bathing, getting dressed, or keeping up with their medicines, there's help for that, too. There are active lifestyle options for those able to get up and go, but there's also skilled nursing on hand for people who need medical care, because the staff has nurses on duty 24 hours a day who watch over both health and emotions. For memory care, the Memory Lane program looks out for those with Alzheimer's or other memory challenges, giving some daily structure and quiet, and for rehab there's the Bounce Back Rehabilitation Program, which tries to help folks regain strength after an illness or injury.
Different types of living are available, like assisted living, congregate living, continuing care, and full nursing care when it's needed, and there's hospice care and respite options if a caregiver needs a break. The place has private or shared suites, wireless internet, TV, a resident call system for safety, and staff serve up home-cooked meals restaurant-style, so there's always a chance to gather and chat with others. Social and recreation activities help fill the days, and there's a special Geriatric Nutritional Program for eating well. Residents get laundry and housekeeping done for them, and Pekin Manor's part of Liberty Village of Pekin, which means there are single-family homes at The Villas and specific apartments at Pekin Estates for those who want a different kind of retirement living. Reviews give it a rating of 3.5 from 6 people, which suggests folks have had a range of experiences. It's a not-for-profit community, so decisions may not always be all about the money. Walk-in interviews for staff run every Wednesday, which might keep the staff list fresh if people want to work there. The facility handles medication management, diabetic care, and even offers hospice when people need that level of attention, so it can fit many needs as folks age and as daily life changes, and while there isn't a lot of specific information just about Pekin Manor itself, the larger community has several options for seniors to consider.
