The term “disability” is extremely difficult to define because no single concept of disability is appropriate for all concerns and policy issues.  The dictionary defines a disability as: "The condition of being unable to perform as a consequence of mental or physical unfitness."  No wonder that the general population’s understanding of what it means to live with a disability is, for the most part, distorted disproportionately toward the negative. 

We here at Enhanced Care Solutions choose to define those we help that are living with a disability as “those individuals that need extra assistance to accomplish extraordinary things.”  We believe that this simple adjustment in the way we view individuals with disabilities – from a focus on support systems based on what they can’t do, to a focus on supporting and extending what they can do - can work wonders for both the individuals, their families, and the organizations that seek to assist them. 

As such, the following resources as well as the services we provide all have one thing in common – they are fundamentally about preserving the dignity of the individual, supporting the desire to live independently, and serving as an implied or outright advocate for enhancing his/her abilities rather than assisting his/her disabilities.
