We had a HOWLING good time at Artis Senior Living yesterday, providing treats (but no tricks!) for neighborhood kids, staff, and residents who attended for a little trick-or-treat fun!

One of our Core values is FUN, and we know that living our mission to Improve the Quality of Life for Those We Serve is best met when we help develop opportunities for joy, fellowship, and laughter.

Thank you to Curtis, Nina, and the entire Artis team for including us in this fun holiday event.

Pam, a compassionate caregiver from Right at Home Twin Cities and South Suburbs, has been supporting Marion for over two years. During that time, she has made over 258 visits without ever being late or missing a single one! That kind of consistency and care doesn’t go unnoticed. In fact, Marion was so moved by Pam’s dedication that she had a custom award created to honor her remarkable reliability.

Pam now visits Marion three times a week for what they call “spa days,” bringing not just assistance, but joy, comfort, and companionship. Though Pam is known for her quiet, efficient approach to caregiving, she’s also a fierce advocate for her clients and always puts their needs first, going above and beyond in ways that speak volumes.

We’re proud to celebrate Pam’s excellence and the special bond she’s built with Marion. Her commitment is a beautiful example of improving the quality of life for those we serve, one meaningful visit at a time.

We are incredibly proud to celebrate Bo Hodges from Right at Home Austin West, who has been named the 2025 Caregiver of the Year by the Home Care Association of America!

Bo Hodges began his caregiving journey after surviving a life-changing motorcycle accident. Inspired by the woman who saved his life and later passed away from cancer, Bo committed himself to helping others. Since joining Right at Home Austin West, he’s become a trusted and compassionate presence—braving storms, handling emergencies, and offering unwavering support. Clients call him a lifeline, and colleagues admire his reliability, communication, and heartfelt dedication.

Joining Bo in this honor is Deb Whalen from Right at Home of Southern Arizona, recognized as a national finalist. Out of over 500 nominations, these two Right at Home caregivers stood out for their compassion, dedication, and life-changing care. Their recognition inspires us all to continue making a difference every day. Congratulations! 🎉

Skokie Valley Rotarians had the opportunity to learn about a wonderful tool created by bioethicist and fellow Rotarian John Kilmer at today's meeting at Bar Siena.

John has created medicaldecisions.info an amazing tool for creating Advanced Directives that is free of charge and 100% anonymous and confidential.

A simple, one click at a time journey through treatment option most likely to be faced, with no personal information ever collected and choices not saved, but a full and legally valid Advanced Directive generated with your unique choices at the end.

At Right at Home, we regularly encounter people with no Advanced Directives, or a Power of Attorney who doesn't quite know the person's full wishes. This tool helps users walk through the most common care scenarios and consider them, as well as providing neutral information about why someone would or would not pursue a given choice.

An online walk through a park, medicaldecisions.info is a fantastic tool for making educated and informed decisions based on your personal values. We are very excited to share this resource with you and encourage you to check it out today!
