Assistant Director of Field Operations, Maryland
Baltimore, United States | Posted on 08/05/2026
Care2U was formed in 2022 around a single and singular vision to revolutionize the trusted house call: bringing back a care-full custom, while bringing forward an increasingly care-less healthcare industry.
By optimizing each patient's site of care - and removing them from endless and expensive hospital admissions - physicians, care managers, caregivers, and entire health organizations could simultaneously improve outcomes and lower costs.
So, with an 100+ years of combined expertise across Emergency Medicine, Population Health, In-Home Care, and Logistics to build from, the Care2U Team developed a comprehensive yet compassionate, efficient and effective, end-to-end Platform of services that brings together the comfort of yesteryear's in-home consultations with the capabilities of today's medical technologies, all to realize the promise of tomorrow's high-complexity healthcare.
Because for every acute care need treated outside of an emergency facility, the entire healthcare system is given a better chance to, itself, heal.
This is what 'healing at home' is all about.
This is Care2U.
