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 Tom Domke, President
Tom opened Right at Home of Greater Pittsburgh in March of 2002. This office became “rookie of the year” with the franchised organization, then went on to become a member of the “president club” 14 times in the next 18 years, those presidents club members rank in the top 10% of franchised territories worldwide.
In addition to owning/operating this company for the past 19 years, to better serve our clients Tom also became a registered Nurse in 2012, then continued his nursing education to be a “certified Med-Surge registered nurse”. He also trained and practiced as a chemo nurse, neuro nurse, ortho nurse, and dialysis nurse, and was a charge nurse of the step-down unit and COVID-19 unit on the weekends at a local hospital.
Past accomplishments include a master’s degree, as well as Past Vice President and President for 3 years of the Home Care Association of America’s PA branch. That allowed Tom to be an integral part of assisting the state in licensing the industry to better protect the employees and clients while maintaining a high level of professionalism.
In his previous career, Tom owned and operated a five-location wellness facility throughout the Pittsburgh area for 23 years, where he consulted nationally on many health and wellness subjects. While there, he was President of the South Craig Street Business Association in Oakland, and a member of the Southwestern Pennsylvania Partnership For Aging.

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.
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.
