Carrollwood’s Trusted Home Care Provider

Carrollwood is one of Tampa’s most established and sought-after residential communities. Nestled in northwest Hillsborough County along the Dale Mabry Highway and Gunn Highway corridors, Carrollwood has been home to Tampa families for over four decades. Its mature tree-lined neighborhoods, well-maintained homes, top-rated schools, and convenient access to shopping, dining, and medical facilities make it a community where people settle — and stay. Many of Carrollwood’s original homeowners have lived here since the 1970s and 1980s, and they’re now facing the health challenges that come with aging.
Empower Home Care provides comprehensive home health care services to patients across Carrollwood, FL and the surrounding northwest Tampa communities. Our clinical team — registered nurses, licensed physical therapists, occupational therapists, speech-language pathologists, medical social workers, and certified home health aides — delivers physician-ordered, nurse-supervised care directly in your Carrollwood home. Whether you’re recovering from a procedure at AdventHealth Carrollwood, managing a chronic condition, or helping an aging parent maintain independence, our team brings the clinical expertise and personal compassion your family deserves.
As a CHAP-accredited, nurse-owned, and veteran-operated agency headquartered in Tampa, Empower Home Care is a local team that serves Carrollwood patients regularly. We are not a national franchise. Our founders are registered nurses and military veterans who built this agency around clinical excellence and personal accountability. Most of our Carrollwood home care services are covered by Medicare at no cost to the patient.

Senior Home Care for Carrollwood’s Established Residents

A nurse and an elderly man sit together on a couch
Carrollwood has one of the highest concentrations of long-term homeowners in the Tampa area. Many residents who moved to Carrollwood Village or the surrounding neighborhoods in the 1970s, 1980s, and 1990s are now in their 70s, 80s, and beyond. These are people who raised families here, built relationships with their neighbors over decades, and have deep roots in the Carrollwood community. Leaving their home for an assisted living facility isn’t just a logistical change — it feels like losing a lifetime of connection.
Our senior home care services are specifically designed to help Carrollwood’s aging residents stay safely and comfortably in the homes they’ve lived in for decades. We provide fall prevention and home safety assessments (especially important in older homes that may have narrow hallways, outdated bathrooms, and step-down living areas), chronic disease management for diabetes, heart failure, COPD, and hypertension, medication reconciliation and safety, post-surgical rehabilitation, cognitive support for early-stage dementia and memory loss, and daily living assistance from our certified home health aides.
Medicare covers most senior home health services at no cost. Assisted living in the Carrollwood and north Tampa area averages $4,000–$5,500+ per month out of pocket. For most Carrollwood seniors, home care is the better, more affordable, and more personally meaningful option.

Adapting Care to Carrollwood’s Established Homes

A nurse measures the blood pressure of an elderly woman in a clinical setting, ensuring her health and well-being.
Many of Carrollwood’s homes were built in the 1970s and 1980s — an era before universal design and accessibility features became standard. This means that homes where seniors have lived comfortably for decades may now present safety challenges: narrow doorways that don’t accommodate walkers, step-down living rooms that create tripping hazards, bathtubs without grab bars, slippery tile floors, poor lighting in hallways, and kitchens with high cabinets that require reaching.
Our occupational therapists and physical therapists are experienced in assessing Carrollwood’s older homes and recommending practical, affordable modifications that dramatically improve safety. This includes grab bar installation in bathrooms, shower bench and handheld showerhead recommendations, improved lighting in hallways and stairways, area rug removal, furniture rearrangement for clear pathways, raised toilet seats, and adaptive equipment that makes daily tasks safer and easier. These simple changes can be the difference between staying safely at home and an avoidable fall that leads to hospitalization.
