Overview of The Courtyard at McHenry

The Courtyard at McHenry offers independent living, assisted living, and memory care in McHenry, Illinois. Independent living provides private living with community services and no daily care, while assisted living helps with daily tasks such as dressing, bathing, and medication. Memory care provides a secured setting with supervision for someone at risk of wandering, and the range of care levels can support a resident whose needs grow over time without leaving the community.

Respite care is available for short stays, which can give a family caregiver time to travel or recover. The community has 80 beds and is operated by Encore Mchenry. A fitness center provides space for exercise, while the movie theater and library offer on site options for leisure and reading; with a Walk Score of 30, the area is car dependent, so most errands require a car or a ride for a resident who no longer drives.
