Courtyard Care Center has faced multiple family complaints, with recurring issues in care planning, medication management, and treatment delivery across surveys from 2022 to 2025. The facility shows persistent problems with developing complete care plans and providing appropriate treatment according to residents' needs. While all deficiencies have correction dates, the repeated nature of core care issues—particularly around individualized care planning and medication oversight—suggests ongoing challenges that families should investigate further during visits.
