Our Mission

Put simply, our mission is to improve the quality of life for those we serve. Of course, we recognize that everyone’s idea of “quality of life” is different, which is why it’s so important to us to make you an active part of your own care plan. We want you to be in the driver’s seat regardless of any limitations or challenges you’re facing.

Most of all, we believe aging isn’t just about staying healthy, safe and independent. It’s also about living well.

"Right at Home has been a lifesaver! The owner and our caregiver are wonderful. My parents are completely satisfied and truly feel blessed to have our caregiver with them. Our caregiver follows the plan that Melanie and I put into place for my parents. We all discussed their needs, and Melanie made sure that they were covered. Our caregiver is here to help, and she does it with a smile. Laughter is also common around their home. Priceless! Melanie knows that caregiving for seniors is an important part of a senior's life.

"I encourage anyone that needs help with in-home care for your elderly family member to contact Right at Home. My sister's heath seriously declined and we needed help caring for her. The staff members from Right at Home were very helpful, compassionate and reliable. They helped with bathing, meals, and cleaning the house. Once my sister got to the point that she needed full time care at a nursing facility, they even put us in contact with someone that assisted with finding a facility."

"The people that come out from Right at Home are first class. Sometimes, it's a bit of a challenge because I live out in the middle of nowhere in East County, so it's hard to get people to come way out here. They come twice a week. The caregiver comes out and helps to clean up, washes the dishes, does light housekeeping, and sits and talks with me. I live alone. She straightens up the house for me. She will cook me a meal sometimes. She puts some lotion on my back for the pain that I have there."

"We've been using Right at Home for at least three years now. What I like most is the congenial attitude from the girls that come. We use them three times a week. They help us with getting our meals and taking care of my wife who's got Alzheimer's. It's a godsend to have them. The service is mainly for my wife, but we both are well taken care of. "

Free Wheelchair Mission

Globally, an estimated 70 million people with disabilities have no access to a wheelchair. Those who cannot walk must crawl or be carried to their destination. In collaboration with a network of like-minded partners, Free Wheelchair Mission has distributed more than 1 million wheelchairs to people with disabilities in 93 developing countries around the world, providing renewed dignity, independence and hope through the gift of mobility, at no cost to the recipient.

As an organization, our work with Free Wheelchair Mission began in 2016 as we looked for a partner that would help us further our mission of improving lives worldwide. To date, our team’s efforts have raised more than $400,000 that has funded over 5,000 wheelchairs, which were distributed through life-changing Vision Trips to Vietnam, Ecuador and Costa Rica.

Right at Home offices support Josiah’s House in the Dominican RepublicRight at Home offices support Josiah’s House in the Dominican Republic

Josiah’s House

Over half of the children living in the Dominican Republic live below the poverty line and can be found on the streets in at-risk surroundings in order to make money. Josiah’s House runs family-style homes that provide vulnerable boys and girls with the basic necessities, education, life skills, and family home atmosphere needed to succeed.

Recently, 70 Right at Home offices came together to support Josiah’s House by supplying everyday items for the children of Josiah’s House. The group delivered suitcases full of clothing, personal hygiene items, toys, and other supplies.
