My mother has Alzheimer's and really doesn't remember things on her own to take care of herself. My mother and I were especially pleased with the care that the Home Health aide provided - very kind, patient, and friendly.


I am an RN and have worked in other facilities including those in Peoria, but I was very pleasantly surprised with the quality and professionalism of the Physical Therapy staff. They had handouts with directions written for me – not all hospitals do this. A very good experience.


They were all really nice. I would recommend Pekin Hospital to anyone.


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.


You have a great staff. I’m proud to say I had my surgery at Pekin Hospital.


My Dad was a patient at Pekin Hospital, and I just want you to know how pleased we are with the care he had. Jeremiah was my Dad's nurse most of the time - he is so kind, caring and compassionate. I've never met a nurse like him.


Doctor was great and made conversation with us while we were there.


I was very pleased with my care. The charge nurse was very quick with the discharge papers. I appreciated that she knew I wanted to go home.


We always have a great experience there. Everyone is so wonderful and helpful.


All of the staff were informative and helpful. All nurses are friendly, helpful and efficient. I would not hesitate to recommend Pekin Hospital's services.


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

Never Underestimate the Difference You Can Make...

Pekin Hospital is fortunate to work with many volunteers through the Pekin Hospital League and the Pekin Hospital Auxiliary, which include hospital escorts and other volunteers. These men and women volunteer simply because they believe in Pekin Hospital and our mission and they want to serve the community.

If you have two or more hours a month available to volunteer, like meeting new people and enjoy staying busy, then join Pekin Hospital's Volunteer Services Team! For more information on how you can become part of our team, call (309) 353-0204 or email cperry@pekinhospital.com.
