Whether it’s companionship, assistance with daily tasks, or creating a clean and comfortable home environment, our compassionate caregivers ensure that every client—especially our Veterans—feels valued, supported, and empowered. Because mental and physical well-being go hand in hand.

💙 Veterans taking care of Veterans. A mission we stand by. 💙

At Right at Home, we know that choosing care for a loved one can be overwhelming and emotional. That’s why our entire team — from our leadership to our caregivers — works together to ensure every client is treated with compassion, dignity, and the same attention we would give our own family.

We believe care should never be “one size fits all.” That’s why we tailor every care plan to meet the unique needs, routines, and preferences of each individual. It’s how we build trust. It’s how we create peace of mind. And it’s how we become an extension of your family.

💡 Did you know? We offer flexible care solutions that can grow with your loved one’s changing needs — whether they need a few hours of support each week or full-time care. From companionship to dementia care, we’re here when and how you need us.

✨ When you're ready for care that goes beyond the basics — care that feels like home — we're here.

📞 Call us today at (910) 765-0755 or visit our website at www.rightathome.net/wilmington
Let’s talk about how we can help your loved one live with dignity, safety, and comfort at home.

Right at Home is proud to recognize Shannon Houghton, Office Manager at Right at Home West Pasco & North Pinellas, for the compassion and dedication she brings to the mission every day. Shannon has been a vital part of her team for 10 years, and this spring, she had the extraordinary opportunity to serve as a guardian on Mission #52 of the Honor Flight.

She accompanied him on a journey to Washington, D.C., where veterans are flown, free of charge, to visit the monuments dedicated to their service and sacrifice. Henry and Shannon enjoyed taking time to walk through the Lincoln, Vietnam, World War II, and Korean War memorials. Other highlights from their trip included a water cannon salute upon landing in BMI, Changing of the Guard at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, and a heartfelt mail call during their flight home. The day ended with a moving Welcome Home Ceremony that brought tears, cheers, and a true sense of honor for all who served.

Supporting veterans has always been close to Shannon’s heart, and her participation in Honor Flight was a beautiful reflection of the values held at Right at Home. We are grateful to Shannon for her empathy, her commitment, and the meaningful connection she built with Henry. Her actions reflect the heart of the Right at Home mission to improve the quality of life for those we serve.

Dementia doesn’t just affect older adults. For some, it begins in their 30s, 40s, or 50s while they’re still working, raising families, and living full lives. Early-onset dementia brings unique challenges, but also opportunities to plan ahead, stay connected, and live with purpose.

Kent Broussard, a retired accountant in his mid-60s, fulfilled a lifelong dream by enrolling as a freshman at Louisiana State University (LSU) to join its famed Golden Band from Tigerland. His journey began in 1968 when he first saw the band perform as a child. Though he played the sousaphone in high school and college, life led him down a different path—career, family, and eventually retirement.
Broussard never let go of his dream, though. In 2023, he began training physically and musically, even marching through his neighborhood with a 30-pound sousaphone. He applied to LSU, auditioned, and earned a spot in the band. His debut during LSU’s 2025 football season opener drew national attention, with ESPN highlighting his story and the crowd at Tiger Stadium cheering as his image appeared on the jumbo screen.
Kent Broussard’s story reminds us that it’s never too late to chase what sets your soul on fire because, as Kent put it, "People retire, dreams don’t."
