About Grand View Alzheimer's Special Care Center

Our cozy, one-story community offers comprehensive memory care services in the heart of Illinois. Grand View is located in the River City of Peoria, Illinois, which is the largest city on the Illinois River and features gorgeous gardens, an enclosed courtyard, and plenty of outdoor spaces — where residents can sit, relax, and soak up the River City views. Located halfway between Chicago and St. Louis, nestled along the Illinois River, Peoria gives big city amenities with just the right amount of small town hospitality. Grand View sits nearby Donovan Park, Forest Park Nature Center, several shopping, dining, and entertainment options as well as UnityPoint Health-Proctor. Residents who love wildlife can enjoy birdwatching in local parks, visiting Peoria Zoo, watching boats travel along the Illinois River, and spending some time at one of the many golf courses. Community Amenities and Services At Grand View, residents can choose between long-term memory care service arrangements or short-term respite care, all the while benefiting from around-the-clock quality personal care services and assistance, routine housekeeping, laundry services, and meal preparation. We also provide educational resources and transition assistance for residents and family members as they navigate through the diagnosis of Alzheimer’s and other forms of dementia. Our JEA-exclusive Meaningful Moments memory care programming offers countless opportunities for residents to create new memories, maximize their independence, and enjoy enriching activities. By connecting with each resident and their families, we learn their history, interests, and passions in order to customize activities and events to each individual. This can look like participating in bowling, happy hours, baking, scenic drives, badminton, men’s club, reminiscing times, and playing a friendly game of Saturday bingo with friends and neighbors. Living Arrangements Residents of Grand View have the choice of private, semi-private, and companion suites. Each suite is designed to be familiar, offering even more comfort in our homelike environment. We encourage each resident to incorporate their favorite comforts of home into their suite, making each room personal and unique. As a community dedicated to you and your comfort, we’re here to help you feel right at home. Related: Memory Care vs. Nursing Homes: What’s the Difference?

Impressed with the operation. Clean and great location. Nice people and seems like good management. the only thing I didn't like is the lack of one person to a room, would not consider my wife sharing a room.

First Six Weeks at Grand View

Very happy right now. We are about 6 weeks into this and my kids and I feel we made the right decision. I'm here everyday, so I get to observe a lot...so far all good. Hard to put all in a text, but nurses are really on top of any issues. Food is very good (I'm here now and we just had chicken cordon Bleu for lunch). Tables are set with tablecloths and cloth napkins. A lot of activities offered daily. I guess my only complaint is the coffee is weak. I found out that is intentional as a lot of caffeine can interact

Peace of Mind

Grand View has provided excellent communication and assistance for our family member’s needs. Availability of staff to answer questions is excellent. Family and friends are always welcomed by the staff when they visit. Such a relief to know she is in a safe place that meets her specific needs.

Review for Grand View Alzheimer's Special Care Center

Not good at all for people with Alzheimer’s that need total care. I took my mom out of there & placed her elsewhere. Wasn't very happy with the care there. It was suggested by A Place For Mom

Horrible experience

Awful experience and horrible people. They let the residents with dementia roam the halls and walk into rooms, in the middle of the night. There was NO supervision at night and zero accountability. They dumped my brother in the hospital waiting room and left him.

Quality Care

Probably one of better homes in area. Excellent head nurse ([name removed]). Most staff very good. Could & should improve staff to resident ratio. Needs more music and activities. Clean facility in good neighborhood. 100% memory care is great so the dementia residents are not step-children.
