When a little more support is needed
After a stroke, care needs may involve movement, communication, daily activities, or medication routines. A home health plan can bring together the skilled disciplines recommended by your provider. Goals should reflect current abilities and what the patient and family need to understand at home.
Vanguard works with patients, families, and referring providers to clarify the requested skilled services. We review your location, referral, and coverage before planning visits. You can call to understand the process even if you are still gathering paperwork.
What to have ready
These details help the team understand the referral and avoid asking you to repeat information.
- Hospital or rehabilitation discharge instructions
- Recommended therapy disciplines and existing equipment
- Questions about daily routines or caregiver assistance
Also have the patient’s city or ZIP code and insurance information nearby. Please share medical documents directly with the care team through the process they provide, rather than through the general website form.

Questions about stroke recovery
Care is personal. These answers offer a starting point for a conversation about your needs.
Discuss coverage and eligibilityCan different therapists work from one care plan?
A home health plan may involve more than one skilled discipline. The team reviews the referral and patient needs to determine which services can be coordinated.
Can I use insurance or private pay?
We accept most major insurance plans and private pay. Participation, benefits, authorization requirements, and patient costs vary by plan and service. We review these details before services begin.
What should I prepare for a stroke recovery inquiry?
Please have hospital or rehabilitation discharge instructions; recommended therapy disciplines and existing equipment; questions about daily routines or caregiver assistance. You can call before every document is available.
