Knee Pain
Minutes Matter During a Heart Attack
Pro Care Home Medical Equipment



Anytime we had a question, the ladies at Home Health called us back promptly. They taught me the proper way to use a shower chair. My safety and comfort were foremost during my home therapy.


I was having heart pain and was seen immediately, then given an EKG. I think the treatment was thorough and good. Having a heart attack at 48 is shocking.


Every time I pushed the nurse's button, my request was answered in a timely manner.


Your Home Health staff is excellent and very caring.


I came in to ER1 screaming in pain, and they took me straight to the exam area. They were really fast!


My mother became very ill in late July 2012 and has been in and out of Pekin Hospital ever since. I wish I could explain the lengths that the staff there has gone to in order to treat my mother with kindness and dignity. I wish I could explain how comforting and generous the staff has been to the rest of my family during this frightening time. There are just too many examples to cite, but they all add up to meticulous, loving care from the doctors, nurses, aides, housekeepers, cafeteria workers, lab techs, and so on. Thank you all so, so much for what you have done for us.


Have always gotten excellent care. The staff go way beyond caring, helping, and seeing to our safety as a patient. Always a smile.


Everyone was extremely pleasant. It was the people who made me feel like I made the right choice in choosing Pekin Hospital.


My husband was a patient in UrgentCare, and he was very impressed with the friendly, professional staff.


No problems at all. It was great – thank you!


The doctor was very upbeat and made the visit to the hospital as much of a good visit as possible. He was very good at making my daughter laugh.
