The vision of CARES never changed just the path and the place. And, the change is good. Things will be different but the ONE that holds the future will direct that path.

On May 5, 2005, CARES was created with a vision to serve those with complicated physical needs especially lymphedema, cancer related debilities and chronic pain. We have served our community since with a mission to provide the best one-on-one experience in the Physical Therapy community while also providing Mastectomy Apparel for breast cancer patients and compression for the lymphedema patients.

Changes in healthcare since the passing of The Affordable Care Act have affected the practice of medicine across the board. Medical care has changed and small private practices like CARES are being challenged.

Physical Therapy was always meant to be hands-on and one-on-one and by affiliating with HealthActions Physical Therapy we will be able to continue providing quality care and the best in physical therapy treatments including lymphedema management to our patients.

For almost 20 years, we have had privilege of serving our community with high quality services and today we are announcing that CARES Health & Wellness has reorganized, relocated and is OPEN to serve your patients. Debra Taylor, PT remains at the helm with the same vision that has guided CARES for almost 20 years.

God is good all the time and we can't wait to see what He has in store next. Brightest Blessings to you all!

May the Lord bless you and keep you. May His face shine upon you and bring you peace. Num 6:24-26

Remember last September, we had a fund raiser for Mary Davis (Fight Like Mary Davis). She has been coming to CARES for a little while for because the proton radiation she had to treat Stage 4 Rhabdoid Malignant Tumor caused head and neck lymphedema. The swelling made it where she couldn't breathe without having a tracheostomy in her neck plus she had trouble swallowing and talking.

She has been a trooper! Creative "play" for manual lymphatic drainage to decrease the swelling plus neck & shoulder "games" to get them back on track. The recent scans are clear and her airway is open! Last weekend, she went to Cincinnati to have the trach removed! Praise Be to God!

A great big THANK YOU to everyone that donated to support this family and help them with that trip to Cincinnati!
