Caregivers Make Our Mission A Reality
At Right at Home Lafayette's caregivers are the heart of our business. For every client that needs compassionate, loving, professional support, there are Right at Home of Waco caregivers who step up and treat clients like their own family. This 'Caregiver Appreciation' page is dedicated to all of the caregivers WE call family. Thank you! You are appreciated beyond words. Who knows, maybe a career as a caregiver is right for you!
Helping Others While Having Fun!
"Right at Home is a really great place to work! I enjoy my job and the owner Julie cares a lot about all of us. Plus, the care team and office staff are great . . . love all you guys! I get to actually help seniors and adults with disabilities in need, all while having fun with them. Some are really stuck because they don't have any way to get out or can't afford it. It's part of my job to help them get out of their houses and see a bigger world than they normally could without me. It means so much to me!" — Jesslyn, Caregiver with Right at Home
"You Are What Makes Our Mission Possible"
Caregiver Spotlight – Keyonna Shawl
Keyonna Shawl is one of the best there is in the field of caregiving. She is extremely reliable, highly skilled, compassionate and loving, and clients adore her and request her frequently. Keyonna has been our on-call caregiver for over 2 years. Our staff values her positive, “can-do” attitude, which makes her a dream to work with! We are tremendously grateful for her dedication, hard work and love that she brings day in and day out!
Caregiver Spotlight – Hilda Broussard
Caregiver Hilda Broussard has been with Right at Home Lafayette for nearly six years. She is committed to giving clients extraordinary care through her attentiveness, active listening, active watching and assessment, compassionate care, and genuine relationships with her clients.
Hilda shared with us about her personal life outside of work so we can all get to know her better. She enjoys fishing and crocheting during her relaxation. Hilda loves chocolate covered cherries and coconut cake, all of which would be tasty on their own but are even better while watching New Orleans Saints football.
She says, "The times when my client lets me know how much he appreciates me and that he considers me to be a blessing. He is not able to speak it but he writes it on his tablet. This means so much to me." What a wonderful example of authentic care! "I really think all caregivers should care for clients like they are one of your own family members; to show empathy and patience. Sometimes you have to give your clients time, don’t push."
Caregiver Spotlight, All Stars and Rising Star!
Right at Home Lafayette knows our caregivers are the most important part of our business.

Supporting Our Right at Home Heroes
Thank you to Ann Dubois, art teacher at Lafayette High School, for creating this special artwork in honor of our everyday heroes! Right at Home caregivers and staff work hard to help keep seniors safe during the Coronavirus pandemic. Our caregivers are essential to who we are and essential to what we do.
