Brookdale Peoria provides assisted living designed to keep medical oversight close at hand. Residents who follow special diets or manage diabetes—whether through oral medications or insulin injections—receive coordinated support from nursing staff and dining services. The community also accepts individuals with mild dementia conditions and can coordinate foot-care through on-site podiatry visits, while remaining open to residents with certain psychiatric diagnoses. Full assistance with bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting is available for anyone who needs it, so care plans can stay consistent even as needs change.
Around-the-clock response is built into daily life. A nurse is on call 24 hours a day, caregivers work an overnight asleep shift, and every team member undergoes background checks. Apartments are equipped with pull cords that alert staff, exit doors are alarmed, and the rear grounds are fenced for additional security. Transfer help ranges from standby support for walkers to two-person or Hoyer lift transfers for bed-bound residents. An activity director schedules programming to keep residents engaged when clinical attention is not required, and security personnel remain on site at all hours.
Accommodation options include suites and apartments that may feature private bathrooms, kitchenettes, furnishings, independent temperature controls, and cable service. Residents can personalize spaces with their own paint colors and décor. Housekeeping and scheduled laundry service are provided, ensuring basic upkeep without residents having to manage it themselves. Not every residence offers every listed feature, so it is worth confirming specific apartment details during a visit.
Dining offers three daily meals on a set menu with an additional on-order option for those who want something different. Snacks are available between meals, and the kitchen team works with clinical staff to deliver diet modifications such as mechanical-chopped, puréed, or thickened-liquid meals as well as vegetarian selections. This coordination supports residents who have medical nutrition requirements while still allowing flexibility for personal preferences.
Amenities include resident parking, outdoor smoking areas, pet-friendly policies, wheelchair-accessible common spaces, a barber and beauty shop, exercise room, wellness center, internet access, communal gardens, and on-site religious services. Scheduled transportation helps residents reach appointments or enjoy local outings. It’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
