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.
About the Owners
Right at Home Batavia
Brian and Kathy Wetters opened their first local office in Batavia, Illinois in 2003 to provide home care services to clients in Chicago’s Far West Suburbs. A few years later a second office in Naperville opened to provide care in the Southwest Suburbs.
For the past 17 years, Kathy’s goal as president has been to give caregivers the direction and tools they need to fulfill the corporate mission of improving the lives of seniors and disabled adults in our community. She has 35 years of management experience. Kathy has a BSIE from Georgia Institute of Technology and MS in Management from Southern Polytechnic State University now (Southern Polytechnic College of Engineering and Engineering Technology at Kennesaw State University).
Both Brian and Kathy have experienced the stress of being long distance caregivers to elderly parents and truly understand your concerns when it comes to making big decisions regarding your family.
Our Philanthropy
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, Right at Home's work with Free Wheelchair Mission began in 2016 as the company looked for a partner that would help us further our mission of improving lives worldwide. To date, the Right at Home 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.
