Overview of Crown Cypress

Crown Cypress is an assisted living community in Kingsport, Tennessee, that offers personal care and respite care. Serving Sullivan County and the greater Tri-Cities region since 1998, the community is one of the longest-established assisted living providers in Northeast Tennessee. The 60-bed community combines residential assisted living services with an affiliated non-medical home care program, Crown Cypress At Home, which supports older adults who prefer to remain in their own homes.

Accommodations include both private and semi-private apartments equipped with wheelchair-accessible bathrooms and emergency response systems, while shared spaces are available indoors and outdoors. Most utilities are included, while housekeeping support and weekly laundry services are provided. Additionally, care services include medication management, help with daily activities, mobility support, and 24-hour supervision from onsite staff. Respite care stays are also available for temporary support needs.

The community accepts Tennessee CHOICES Medicaid waiver funding and assists eligible veterans with VA benefits, which help broaden affordability options for families seeking long-term care support.

The affiliated Crown Cypress At Home program expands the organization’s services beyond the assisted living campus by offering non-medical in-home support throughout the Tri-Cities area. Services include companionship, meal preparation, medication reminders, housekeeping, personal care, grocery assistance, laundry, and caregiver relief. This dual-service model may be especially appealing to families seeking continuity of care from a single provider as needs evolve.

With Indian Path Medical Center and Wellmont Holston Valley Medical Center located only a short drive away, the community provides quick access to medical care.

Crown Cypress is a good option for older adults seeking a smaller, relationship-focused assisted living environment with individualized care planning, strong local roots, and access to both residential and in-home support services within the Kingsport and Tri-Cities region.
