Who We Are
Homecare in Austin
Edwin Young started Right at Home in Austin after his grandmother told him she didn't want to go into a facility. She needed help, but only wanted to be cared for in her home and he believed many others must feel the same way. Right at Home works with various healthcare providers and families to provide homecare in Austin that makes life a little less complicated for all family members involved.

About Right at Home, Inc.
Right at Home was founded by Allen Hager. For many years, Allen worked in health care as a hospital administrator. While in the hospital environment, he watched patients – especially seniors – leave the facility and return home, but not necessarily return to health. Once home, a lot of his former patients were unable to care for themselves.
Allen knew that with a little help, most of these people could lead healthy, happy lives in their own homes. But he also knew that there were very few companies that offered this kind of help. Allen didn’t just jump in and start a franchising company, however.
First, he talked to dozens of families to understand the different kinds of challenges they faced and what kind of care would help. Then he became a certified nursing assistant so he could experience the needs of people who were still living in their home but who needed some professional assistance.
In 1995, Allen started Right at Home in Omaha, Nebraska. Five years later, he started branching into other regions of the country by carefully selecting franchisees who shared his passion for caring for those in their community.
Right at Home now has more than 200 offices that serve thousands of clients across the United States. We even have operations in the United Kingdom and Brazil.
Homecare in Austin
Right at Home's service was just what I needed! I didn't really need a nurse, I just needed help with my silly house chores that I couldn't do on my own. Their help was worth every penny! My house was spotless, my dishes were clean, my belly was full from the lunch they fed me and my dogs were able to get a few pets too.
They did great work and will do the same for you!Jennifer A.
