Peoria Benevilla Adult Day Center

The Peoria Life Enrichment program is wonderful. The staff are very caring and extremely nice. I would tell you my mother did not want to go back after the first day (because she just didn't want to be there) and another day told me she was not getting out of the car. The staff came up with a communication plan where we would check in and address any problems my mother expressed. Fast forward 2 months later my Mom is very eager to go and has made several friends and is real happy with the way she is treated there. She talks non-stop on the half hour drive home about all that she did that day. I would strongly encourage anybody that is facing resistance to hang in there because the staff will help in any way they can. It really is just an adjustment period. Thanks again to all the staff at Benevilla Peoria!!!!

The staff at Benevilla is great. They seem to really know how to work with people with memory care issues. They're good at redirection and just communicating in general with both the family members and the client. My dad likes the food. They have board games and trivia contests, they have people come in and do music, and they've got an exercise program and a walking program. They keep them busy from the minute they get in the door, and that's really a great way to do it. The best thing is just their apparent ability to work with the population. They were very friendly and very helpful and had a lot of good suggestions. The people are very well trained. We have been using them for three weeks now.
