Lutheran Home in Peoria, IL operates as a nursing-home provider, giving residents access to 24-hour skilled nursing services designed for complex and ongoing medical needs. Short-term stays are also accepted, allowing individuals to recover after hospitalization or surgery before returning home.
Residents can receive pulmonary rehabilitation, respiratory therapy and focused diabetes management under the direction of licensed clinicians. Family caregivers who need a break can arrange respite care, and every resident is issued a personal emergency pendant that links directly to on-site staff for rapid response.
Accommodations range from private to companion suites and may include pet-friendly options, outdoor sitting areas, a library with computer access and on-site parking for residents or visitors. Because layouts vary, not every room contains every feature, so it is best to confirm specific details when touring.
The dining program emphasizes balanced nutrition, with three chef-prepared meals served daily and snacks available as ordered. Menus are developed to meet a variety of dietary requirements or physician-prescribed meal plans, and modifications are available for residents who require texture adjustments or controlled sugar options.
Social and recreational opportunities are offered throughout the week in the community’s activity center, including education sessions, clubs, group classes and larger campus events. Scheduled outings and socials encourage residents to stay engaged and connected with peers and staff.
