Sandra Bullock, a Lima resident with 11 years of experience as a nurse, will be opening Lima’s first Right at Home office.

Right at Home celebrated its grand opening of the first Lima office on Thursday, August 4, 2016.

The senior care center is owned by franchisee, Sandra Bullock, a Lima resident with 11 years of experience as a nurse.

"I was inspired by my experience with in-home health care, as this service will continue to be important as Lima's baby boomer population continues to age," Bullock said. "It's important to both seniors and their families for seniors to be able to age gracefully in the comfort of their homes. I'm excited to bring this much-needed service to Lima and look forward to working closely with the local community."

Bullock has employed more than eight caregivers in her effort to provide in-home senior care.

"We provide services from as little as one hour per day to 24 hours a day," she said. "We also provide services in special situations, like if a family wants to go on vacation for a week and they need someone to look after a loved one while they're gone."

The services of Bullock's Right at Home are especially helpful for those who have families that are living out of town and children who are trying to take care of their parents.
