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.
Meet Owners Rob and Sandy Chester
“There’s no place like Home”. Dorothy, from the Wizard of OZ may have made it famous, but nothing stirs the emotions of our hearts more than the word “home”.
The dictionary defines “Home” as:
1. A place where one lives; a residence.
2. The physical structure within which one lives, such as a house or apartment.
3. A dwelling place together with the family or social unit that occupies it; a household.
And our favorite….
4. a. An environment offering security and happiness.
b. A valued place regarded as a refuge or place of origin.
Our Right at Home Start
Right at Home Lancaster and Chester Counties, located in Gap, PA opened its doors in 2012 by Rob and Sandy Chester, who are passionate about reaching out and serving others in an environment offering security, comfort and happiness. “We are privileged to offer and extend care to those in need, while allowing them to stay in the comfort of their own home.”

Our Personal Lives

Life is made up of precious moments that make our days meaningful. No matter where “home” is, a little assistance from Right at Home Lancaster and Chester Counties will help maintain independence, add joy to the day and provide security and safety. “We feel honored and blessed to walk this journey with you and your family.”
Congratulations to Owner Sandra Chester, RN on receiving her Certification from the National Council of Certified Dementia Practitioners (NCCDP)
Dementia in itself is not a single disease, but a general term to describe symptoms of impairment in memory, communication, and thinking. Dementia is a loss of memory and other mental abilities that affect daily life. An estimated 5.8 million Americans of all ages are currently living with Alzheimer's dementia.
As a Certified Dementia Practitioner, Sandy has the necessary educational tools to lead The Right at Home Caregiving staff to provide the best quality of care for our clients with Alzheimer’s and Dementia. Additionally, our agency can provide families with the security and comfort in knowing that their loved one is being cared by a skilled, caring and competent professional.
