About us

Throughout her more than ten years of experience as an occupational therapy assistant in the Tampa Bay area, Kelli Casto experienced firsthand the high number of seniors that were forced to go without the necessary medical equipment to maintain independence at home and optimal health. This was caused by financial hardships, lack of availability, long waitlists, and denial of funding from Medicare. Lack of necessary medical equipment leads to a much higher risk of re-admittance into hospitals and rehab centers. Frustrated by the healthcare system’s inefficiencies and lack of proper support for underserved and low-income seniors, Ms. Casto founded Saving Our Seniors (“SOS” or the “Organization”) in 2016 in her one-bedroom apartment.
