Assisted Living, Memory Care & Respite Care · Kingsport, TN

Overview of The Blake at Kingsport

The Blake at Kingsport offers assisted living, memory care, and respite care in Kingsport, TN. Assisted living includes help with daily tasks such as bathing, dressing, and medication while a resident keeps an apartment. Memory care provides a secured setting with supervision for someone at risk of wandering, while respite care offers a short stay for a family caregiver who needs to travel or recover.

The range of care can suit a resident whose needs may grow over time without requiring a move to another community. The community has 130 beds and 97% occupancy, so availability is limited for families considering a move. Residents can choose a studio, one-bedroom, or two-bedroom home, with a two-bedroom layout that can suit a couple moving together and a studio that provides one private living space.

The community is in the Holston Hills neighborhood, with a Walk Score of 30 that places it in a car-dependent setting. Most errands require a car or a ride, so a resident who no longer drives may need transportation for routine outings. Pets are allowed, allowing a resident to keep a pet while living at the community. Jake Weaver is the administrator, and The Blake at Kingsport Tenant operates the community.
