In Palm Coast, community means more than neighbors living side by side, it means showing up for one another, even from hundreds of miles away. When life throws unexpected challenges, it’s often the strength of these connections that makes all the difference. The testimony of how one Palm Coast local business and resident stepped in to help a fellow resident care for her father, a disabled veteran, is a reminder that community is not just about proximity, but about compassion, dedication, and the willingness to lend a hand when it matters most. Too often when we need a helping hand we don't know where to turn for valuable information. Here on palmcoastlocal.com we are dedicated to helping you find the right information and business related to senior services and health and wellness.

“Thank God for Kathleen” — Shara Brodsky Praises Right at Home’s Kathleen Rivera for Helping Her Disabled Veteran Father Receive Care, Even Hundreds of Miles Away.

Palm Coast, FL – 8/27/25

When Shara Brodsky’s father, a disabled veteran, was irresponsibly discharged from a rehabilitation facility in New Jersey with no plan or referrals for home health care, she suddenly found herself as his primary caretaker. Overwhelmed, 1,000 miles away from her own home in Florida, and with no idea where to turn, Shara felt lost.

In that moment of uncertainty, she picked up the phone and called Kathleen Rivera, Community Liaison for Right at Home Palm Coast, Florida.

“Thank God for Kathleen,” Shara said. “She was the only one who took the time to truly listen. I didn’t know what to do or where to go, but Kathleen’s dedication to her role and her experience gave me hope. No matter when I called, she was always available to talk and answer my questions. That kind of patience and support meant the world to me.”

Thanks to Kathleen’s guidance, Shara was connected with the Right at Home team in New Jersey, who stepped in to provide the care her father urgently needed. Today, her father receives reliable in-home support, with the allotted veteran care hours honored in full—something that has lifted a tremendous weight off Shara’s shoulders.

Kathleen’s quick action reflects more than just her professionalism; it highlights the compassion at the heart of Right at Home’s mission: to walk alongside families in their hardest moments and provide solutions when they feel there are none.

“Without Kathleen, I truly don’t know how I would have managed,” Shara shared. “She turned a frightening situation into a hopeful one, and for that, I am forever grateful.”

Right at Home continues to uphold its commitment to veterans and their families, ensuring they receive the dignity, respect, and dependable in-home care they deserve.
