Company historyRight at Home was founded in 1995 by Allen Hager in Omaha, Nebraska. Hager was a hospital administrator who says that he repeatedly witnessed patients returning to the hospital after being discharged. He believed that patients were not getting adequate care once they returned home.[2] According to Hager, the company’s first client was a retired farmer who wanted someone to drive him around in a 1958 Chevy truck. Hager was able to locate a qualified caregiver who could also drive an old-fashioned, manual transmission vehicle and that launched the company.[3] In 2000 the company began opening franchise offices in the United States.[4] Hager now serves as the executive chairman,[5] Brian Petranick is the current CEO,[6] and Margaret Haynes is the COO.[7] InternationalRight at Home International In Home Care and Assistance began international franchising in 2009 with Master Franchisees in the United Kingdom and Brazil.
