1851Franchise: Franchisee Spotlight: Lucas Hamm
Looking for a change, Lucas Hamm brought compassionate care to Eagan, Minnesota. By opening a Right at Home franchise, Hamm has been creating meaningful careers and supporting seniors in the Twin Cities suburb.
After two decades in corporate America, Lucas Hamm made a life-changing decision to leave his career in health care administration to pursue a more personal and impactful path. With a background working for major organizations like UnitedHealth Group and Optum, Hamm specialized in finance, accounting and business development. However, he realized he wanted something different. “I found myself as 41-year-old Lucas and asked, ‘Do I want to be 61-year-old Lucas and still be doing this?’” he said. “I wanted to do something closer to the actual care delivery itself.”
Hamm spent nearly two years researching franchise opportunities before choosing Right at Home*, a senior care franchise with a strong reputation and a mission that resonated with his values. “Right at Home felt like the best cultural fit,” Hamm said. “The people I talked to were all drawn to the mission of helping their communities and families, and that alignment of values gave me confidence that this was the right move.” Now operating in Eagan, Minnesota, Hamm’s goal is to create meaningful employment for caregivers while serving as a trusted resource for seniors and their families.
Hamm is passionate about building a business that impacts lives in a meaningful way. “I want to serve as many seniors as possible and provide caregivers with strong, meaningful employment at a good wage,” he said. With 10 caregivers already hired and a commitment to being a key resource in his community, Hamm is focused on making a difference, one client at a time.
