Right at Home - South Placer, CA

When you're worried about an aging parent, distance can feel much farther than miles. Maybe Mom isn't as steady as she once was. Dad is having trouble keeping up with meals or everyday routines. You find yourself calling more often, rearranging your schedule, or wondering whether everything is really okay when you're not there.

Right at Home South Placer understands that feeling on a very personal level.

Local owner Nila Murallon, RN, BSN, found herself facing similar challenges when her own mother's health began to decline. Living far away while also raising young children made it difficult to provide all the help her mother needed. She realized countless other sons and daughters were struggling with the same question: How do I make sure someone I love is cared for when I can't always be there?

That experience helped lead Nila, along with her husband Martin Murallon, into home care. Today, their team helps families find dependable support that allows loved ones to continue living where they feel most comfortable—at home.

Care begins by understanding what everyday life looks like for your loved one. Maybe Dad can still handle most things independently but needs help with transportation and meals. Mom may need assistance bathing and dressing but still wants to choose her clothes and start the morning on her own terms. Another loved one may simply be spending too much time alone and would benefit from a familiar face stopping by to talk, prepare lunch, or enjoy an afternoon together.

Caregivers can provide companionship, personal care, homemaking, transportation, medication reminders, mobility assistance, respite, and help with everyday routines. Support can be adjusted as needs change, from occasional assistance to more extensive care.

For families navigating Alzheimer's disease or another form of dementia, Parkinson's disease, diabetes, chronic health conditions, hospice, or recovery following a hospital stay, the team can provide more specialized support. The goal is always to help your loved one maintain as much independence, familiarity, and dignity as possible.

And sometimes the biggest difference comes from things that aren't written on a care plan.

It's having someone remember how Mom likes her morning coffee. It's Dad having another person to talk with over lunch. It's a caregiver noticing when something seems different and knowing enough about your loved one's normal routine to recognize it.

Those relationships can also give families room to breathe.

When someone else can help with meals, bathing, transportation, laundry, or companionship, your time together doesn't always have to revolve around what needs to get done. You can visit Mom and actually sit down with her. You can watch the game with Dad instead of spending the afternoon catching up on chores.

At Right at Home South Placer, bringing in care isn't about replacing family. It's about giving your loved one another person in their corner—and giving you the reassurance that you don't have to carry every responsibility alone.

Because sometimes the right amount of help is exactly what allows Mom or Dad to remain independent, stay surrounded by familiar memories, and continue feeling at home.
