North Tampa is home to a diverse and growing community of families, retirees, and professionals — from the neighborhoods surrounding the University of South Florida to the established residential areas of Carrollwood, Northdale, and the corridors stretching toward Lutz and East Pasco County. When illness, surgery, or aging makes daily life more difficult for you or a loved one, Empower Home Care brings expert, compassionate care directly to your North Tampa home.
Empower Home Care is a CHAP-accredited, nurse-owned, and veteran-operated home care agency serving patients throughout North Tampa and the surrounding communities. Our clinical team includes registered nurses, licensed physical therapists, occupational therapists, speech-language pathologists, medical social workers, and certified home health aides — all working under physician orders and RN supervision to deliver care that is both medically excellent and deeply personal.
Whether you need skilled nursing for chronic disease management, physical therapy after a hip replacement, or a home health aide to help an aging parent with daily tasks, our North Tampa care team builds a personalized plan around your specific medical needs, recovery goals, and home environment. And because we are a Medicare-certified agency, most services are covered at no out-of-pocket cost to the patient.

North Tampa has a significant and growing population of older adults, many of whom have lived in their homes for decades. Our senior home care services are designed to help these residents age safely in place — maintaining their independence, managing chronic conditions, and avoiding unnecessary hospitalizations or premature moves to assisted living.
Our senior care in North Tampa includes fall prevention and home safety assessments, chronic disease management for diabetes, heart failure, COPD, and hypertension, medication safety and reconciliation, post-surgical rehabilitation, dementia and Alzheimer’s support, and daily living assistance from our certified home health aides. We also provide caregiver support for adult children who are balancing care responsibilities with their own families and careers.
If your aging parent lives in Carrollwood, near USF, in Lake Magdalene, or anywhere in the North Tampa area and is starting to need help at home, call us at (813) 652-7070 for a free, no-obligation assessment.
