Greg and Jackie Brewer, owners of Right at Home in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, received Right at Home’s National Allen Hager RightSpirit Award, named for the founder of Right at Home. The award honors Hager’s commitment to improving the lives of seniors and adults with disabilities. The Brewers were presented with the award at Right at Home’s annual conference in Dallas, Texas.
The Brewers were involved in the “Hospital-to-Home” pilot program with Forsyth Medical Center of Novant Health, a program for seniors that is now being implemented in eight area hospitals, paid for by the “Medicare Innovations” program to help reduce readmissions. The Brewers’ commitment to the Winston-Salem community is evident through their involvement in programs like the Parkinson’s Foundation’s “Moving Day,” the “Love Out Loud” Salem Christmas program, the Shepherd’s Center, Cancer Services Inc. of Forsyth County, and the United Way of Davie County. Jackie is a board member of the SECU Family House, which is an alternative to a hospital waiting room or an expensive hotel for people facing the challenge of out-of-town medical care. Their office also sponsors an internship program through Winston-Salem State University.
“Our mission is to improve the lives of those we serve,” said Greg. “We do that with our clients every day, and we are able to do even more by working with other amazing organizations that share the same mission.”
