  • Harmony services are delivered through an integrated care model comprised of a collaborative team of physicians, advanced practitioners, pharmacists, nurses, care aides, therapists and social workers.

Richmond, Va, September 12, 2022 – At Home Harmony (https://athomeharmony.com/) announced the launch of an integrated care model designed to help older adults with health concerns age safely and sustainably at home. The company is currently screening a limited number of older adults living in the central Virginia area for enrollment.

Harmony provides an integrated set of recurring home care services – primary care, personal care, remote patient monitoring, therapy and prescription drugs – in an integrated model that monitors the senior and coordinates their care to keep them safe in their own home.

Harmony’s innovative model is the first senior care service of its kind in the country. The company is founded by Will Saunders, a healthcare and long-term care expert with a decades long track of record of launching and growing healthcare companies that solve complex healthcare problems for seniors and the frail and vulnerable.

After founding and successfully exiting a company that focused on improving the quality of care within nursing homes, Saunders noted a shortage of at-home solutions for older adults who wanted to stay at home while accessing high-quality senior care. His vision for At Home Harmony is to deliver a suite of integrated clinical services that help seniors thrive in the home, and he is proud that his own parents are among the first clients of Harmony.

“Older adults who are aging and managing multiple chronic conditions almost always prefer to stay in their own home, but the senior and their family often lack the support they need to do so safely,” said Saunders. “The combination of my own experience in improving the quality of care within senior living communities and new programs offered by Medicare inspired me to build a new type of senior care service that could help older adults age safely and affordably at home.”

Harmony has already enrolled its initial cohort of patients and is accepting a limited number of new members. At Home Harmony delivers an integrated care model comprised of a collaborative team of physicians, advanced practitioners, pharmacists, nurses, care aides, and social workers. The At Home Harmony model includes the latest in-home technology and a specialized pharmacy built to help seniors manage complex medication regimens.

The benefits of the model include:

  • Physicians and advanced practitioners visit the senior in their home and coordinate care with their existing trusted physicians. The clinician develops a personalized Your At Home Harmony Plan for the senior, tailored to their individual conditions, to enable them to thrive in their own home or senior living community.
  • Home delivery of medications in specialized packaging aimed to help the typical senior who manages greater than eight medications. Additionally, At Home Harmony pharmacists provide free recurring counseling for the senior and their family.
  • Access to care aides who are part of an integrated care team and are trained to keep the senior safe at home.
  • Technology customized to the senior’s unique conditions that continuously monitors the senior and sends updates to the care team and family.
  • Therapists, as needed, who work directly with the senior to improve their ability to safely live independently.
  • Access to dedicated advanced practitioners, pharmacists, and nurses when the senior or their family has a question or concern.
  • Harmony delivers an integrated care model comprised of a collaborative team of physicians, advanced practitioners, pharmacists, nurses, therapists, care aides, and social workers.
  • Services are generally covered by Medicare, at no cost to the patient other than applicable co-payments.

“After contacting At Home Harmony for my mother, the At Home Harmony physician assistant and social worker developed a plan that address her conditions and gives me peace of mind she is being continuously cared for,” said Sylvia M, the daughter and caregiver of a At Home Harmony client in Henrico. “Harmony has simplified her medication regimen and the pharmacist is immediately available to us when we have questions. The technology is easy to use and I love getting daily alerts that keep me in the loop regarding her conditions.”

The Case for the At Home Harmony solution is glaring and growing:

    • A large majority (>77 %) of older Americans report they would prefer to receive care in their own home.
    • The majority of seniors over 65 consume 5 or more prescription drugs and nearly half (45%) of older adults with prescription drug coverage say they have experienced various problems accessing prescription drugs due to cost or coverage issues through their drug plan in the past 12 months.
    • Approximately three quarters of seniors over 75 years of age have two or more chronic conditions.
    • Forty-three percent of Americans have either past or current experience providing long-term care to a family member or close friend. Among those with experience as caregivers, 4 in 10 report having to miss work to provide long-term care to a loved one.
