For Healthcare and Referral Partners
The Home Care Partner Your Patients Deserve.
When you refer to Vanguard Home Care, you’re not just passing along a phone number. You’re connecting your patient with a Maryland RSA-licensed agency where all caregivers are dementia and memory care trained, select caregivers hold Alzheimer’s Association essentiALZ® certification, and every care plan is RN-supervised.
We make your discharge calls easier. And we protect the outcomes you worked for.

The Discharge Package — For Providers
One call closes the highest-risk window in recovery.
The highest-risk window in a patient’s recovery is the gap between hospital discharge and stable care at home. Our Discharge Package closes that window.
One call activates: RN intake assessment, transportation home, prescription pickup, medication reminders, personal care, and a homemaking visit — all on discharge day. Flat fee. No surprises. No gaps.

Partnering With Assisted Living Communities
An extension of your care team — not a replacement.

Reduces family concerns about responsiveness and individualized attention
Provides supplemental support for higher-acuity residents without adding to payroll
Improves resident and family satisfaction
Supports fall prevention, dementia monitoring, and overnight safety supervision
