About Us

Personal and Professional Experience

Professionally, I have been a physical therapist since 1993, providing care in the hospital and the home. Personally I was a caregiver for my husband who had ALS (Lou Gehrig’s Disease) for 22 years while raising two boys. Even when he went on a ventilator, he was able to remain in his home with his family. I needed to find an affordable way to get help. In the meantime, my mother’s health was failing as well. She had lung disease, dementia and cancer and lived an hour away from me. It was important for my mom and my family that she be able to stay in her home. We couldn’t do that without a team of caregivers.

About Us

Dedicated to Helping You

After my mom’s passing in 2019 and my husband’s passing in 2020, I decided it was time to use my experience to help other people. I already had a mobile physical therapy practice, Lisa Cassidy Physical Therapy, LLC which I started in 2015 (www.lisacassidypt.com) but realized there was more I had to offer. I knew how hard it was to find quality caregivers but how great life becomes when you find the right ones.

It is overwhelming when you or your loved ones have declining health or a disability. It is hard to know exactly what your loved ones need let alone where to find it. That’s where Empowering Care Solutions can help.

Message from Founder

In the time of medical need, we are there to help.

One of my favorite quotes is by Maya Angelou: “If you don’t like something, change it. If you can’t change it, change your attitude. This mindset helped me to live a happy life despite having a husband with a terminal disease. Some things, like disease and disability, can’t be changed. Things like delivery of care can be changed. It just takes some “out of the box” thinking. I was upset that home care agencies were charging so much to the clients, yet the caregivers (the ones making a difference) saw a very small percentage of that money. No one was happy. Why can’t we do things differently? Well guess what? We can!

Patients Story

Loved by our Patients

Roy & Kim C: Patients

My wife and I were in a very difficult situation with an aging parent who had dementia. We contacted Lisa Cassidy for assistance when coming across her Facebook page for Empowering Care Solutions. Her experience and advice, along with her empathy and understanding, on how to handle the situation has gotten us to a place that is now very manageable. We cannot begin to express how incredibly helpful Lisa was to us, and to our understanding of what assistance was available through different programs. We would highly recommend Lisa for anyone experiencing a similar situation.I absolutely recommend Empowering Care Solutions. Lisa is wonderful and caring and she does her best to help find caregivers.

"Lisa's understanding of home health care is first rate because she understands it from every perspective. Being a PT that does home visits, she understands from the caregiver's point of view. As a family member of someone who needed care, she knows what it's like to have helpers in your home. She expects high quality from the nurses and aides she finds, and that are indeed skilled and, just as importantly, they are kind.Empowering Care Solutions, LLC has lightened our load and eased our minds that our loved ones are safe and well cared for. We are forever grateful for their service!"

"Late last year 2021, my 77 year old father broke both of his hips and spent 2 months in the hospital/rehabilitation facilities. When it was time to get out I had no idea what to do. I saw a post on Facebook from Empowering Care Solutions where they specialize in this predicament. I didn’t know what to expect and wasn’t sure how to accommodate all the requirements for his discharge. Between sleeping arrangements, safety accommodations in his home and the daily care he would need. After a call to Lisa, she met with the social worker there and advocated on our behalf, then came to the house and made many recommendations for how to make the house more comfortable for him. He wanted to go home badly and with only a few day's notice she was able to put a team of nurses/aides together so he didn’t have to stay longer than needed. Still to this day, we have 3 aides taking great care of him and his companion. They are very honest and caring and I feel very comfortable knowing they are there with him. I highly recommend Empowering Care Solutions."
