Company history

Right 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. 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. In 2000 the company began opening franchise offices in the United States. Hager now serves as the executive chairman, Brian Petranick is the current CEO, and Margaret Haynes is the COO.
