Social Worker Continues to Serve Her Community as Right at Home Franchise Owner
Regina Le-Grand-Sawyer has always had a passion for serving others, so it doesn’t come as much of a surprise that she is now bringing Right at Home, the in-home care franchise with over 700 units, to Yuba City, CA. When she was young, she gravitated towards her aunt who through a tragic accident became a paraplegic, eager to help in any way she could. From then on, she knew she would end up providing care services to others and has done so in a variety of ways.
Her inspiration for starting her own business in-home care is rooted in her experience and passions. She and her siblings took turns caring for their father in his old age, and she sometimes wishes they had used a service like Right at Home to provide some relief for their care responsibilities, especially her younger sister who lived with her dad. She also is a brain tumor survivor and knows the difference quality care can make in keeping someone comfortable and happy.
When asked why she picked Right at Home, Regina answered, "Right at Home’s missions align with my values and goals. The culmination of their experiences and values drove me to select this brand. I know how to make people’s lives comfortable, especially elderly people, because nobody wants to live in the hospital and spend an excess amount of money. They would rather live in the comfort of their home. They want the people coming into their homes to be well-trained to provide care for them. Right at Home has the formula that allows families and clients to feel safe and comfortable. Caregivers are also revered in this organization; it is very important to recognize the hard work these professionals exhibit daily. The infrastructure for this company is solid and they are always looking for innovative ways to expand and provide better tools for franchisees."
