Right at Home is an international leader in the home care industry. We provide aged care and disability support to those who need assistance maintaining their independence and quality of life. We have a comprehensive portfolio of care services including hospital-to-home, postoperative and transitional care, as well as socialisation, companion and personal care and disability support. We are a home care company that operates through franchisees, not a franchise company trying to do business in the home care industry. Because of this, the safety and well-being of our clients come first for everyone.
Who we are
Right at Home was founded in the USA by Allen Hager. For many years, Allen worked in healthcare as a hospital administrator. While in the hospital environment, he watched many of his patients – especially seniors – return home but not necessarily to health. Once home, many of his former patients were unable to care for themselves.
In 1995, Allen started Right at Home in Omaha, Nebraska. Right at Home was one of the first companies to enter senior care and is now a leader in the home care industry. We help care for people who need assistance to maintain their independence, no matter where they call home. Our company provides trained and insured caregivers to families with seniors or adults living with a disability. We offer a variety of services that are customised to each family's needs.
Today, Right at Home is an international business with over 600 offices servicing tens of thousands of clients, across the USA, Canada, United Kingdom, Ireland, Japan and the Netherlands.
Karen and Daryl Sahli were granted the Master Franchise rights to Right at Home Australia in 2014. They opened their first office in Brisbane during that year and started franchising in 2016. Right at Home Australia now has more than 48 offices Australia-wide and counting.
Daryl has managed both large and small businesses during his career with extensive experience in franchising. Daryl has worked in professional practice with both Ernst & Young and PricewaterhouseCoopers as a management and corporate finance consultant. Karen has experience in business and office management, she has worked in the travel and real estate industries and is a book editor and publisher. Daryl and Karen hope to make a difference in aged care and disability support in Australia.
Continued government budget pressure means that funding for aged care is not keeping pace with growing demand. Daryl and Karen are determined to provide high-quality support services so that clients may remain in their homes, with no compromise to their lifestyle and daily routines. They understand from their own experience the pressure many families are under to provide care for their ageing or disabled loved ones.
