Cypress Assisted Living sits at 911 21st Street in Anacortes, Washington, and offers a calm and supportive place for seniors aged 65 and older with space for up to 48 residents, and you'll find that the staff know how to help with all sorts of needs, from assisted living and memory care to skilled nursing and rehabilitation, and there's always someone around since staff stay on-site 24 hours a day with a 24-hour call system too, so support's close at hand anytime you need it, whether that's help with bathing, dressing, medication, or transfers, and they do their best to treat every resident with dignity, peace, and respect while making sure everyone's personal care is tailored to their needs, and their executive director, Chris Alspaugh, leads the staff with focus on high standards.
The community feels relaxed with gardens, patios, and walking paths, and it's easy for people to connect and visit in the common rooms, or relax with a book in the small library, watch TV with others, or use the WiFi since rooms come with cable television, telephones, kitchenettes, and are fully furnished with linens and housekeeping services included, and there's a beauty salon for folks who like to stay nicely groomed. Meals here come prepared in a restaurant-style dining room, with breakfast and specialty meals to fit dietary needs, and the staff manage medications and dietary restrictions carefully. The activity calendar includes scheduled daily events, movie nights, community and resident-run programs, and there are options for people with different interests, so it's not hard to stay busy if you're looking to find something to do.
Cypress Assisted Living keeps close to the local medical centers, pharmacies, and Anacortes' dining spots, so residents can stay engaged with the wider community, and families find the respite care program supports short-term stays when needed. The place is known for its gentle support of seniors that includes special help for memory care and even the use of smart seating like the VELA Independence Chair, which lets residents adjust seat height and move easily while staying safe. The facility is registered with the Washington Health Care Association and is operated by Hyatt Family Facilities, an Avventura Senior Living company, with a high Medicaid occupancy rate of approximately 90.73%. The services are given in English, and the staff pays attention to comfort, wellness, and respecting each person's value, all while helping reduce caregiver stress with innovative mobility solutions and a strong focus on keeping residents independent and active as much as possible.
