Testimonials
“This business has been the biggest blessing of my entire life. The truth is, no matter how big I’ve grown it, and we’ve done tremendously well, it will never be big enough—because there are so many people who need us. Every client and every story is meaningful, and it makes a deep impression on me. This business has given me so much more than I can ever return, and Jean Griswold is worthy of all the praise that we give her. When I met her, she was in a wheelchair, suffering from MS, and she entrusted this business to me. I try to live up to her every single day.”—Director Cathy Howard, Fairfield, CT for over 25 years
“The difference between us and our competition is our absolute refusal to give in to cutting corners when it comes to screening for caregivers, and our going above and beyond for the people we help. Other brands have a reputation for putting profits before people, and we are the exact opposite. You can make a great living, but it’s not the reason you’re in this business. You’re in this business to give people dignity in their last years, or sometimes their last days, and be a source of strength and comfort—not only to the client, but also to the families. This is why when people hear the Griswold name, they know they can trust it.”—Brian Rice, Painesville, OH for over 15 years
“I looked at 10 brands before I looked at Griswold, and the difference became apparent as soon as I got on the phone with Griswold. Other brands would tell me how great the margins were, but when I got on the phone with Griswold they told me how important the care was. It was an entirely different tone—they were the only ones who said anything about care. They remembered that the end product was care to seniors, and we appreciated that and decided to franchise with them because of their integrity.”— Director Scott Savel, Scottsdale, AZ for over 8 years
About Griswold Home Care
Our founder, Jean Griswold, was a care professional who became a visionary entrepreneur when she started the first non-medical home care franchise in the United States while running her own home care business.
Jean started at her dining room table in 1982 in suburban Philadelphia. Her husband, Minister and Doctor Lincoln Griswold, informed her that an elderly woman in their parish had died through the complications associated with malnutrition and dehydration because she had no support system to care for her. Jean was deeply saddened by what she felt was an easily preventable tragedy. She was driven to act.
From that beginning, Griswold Home Care now operates in 172 locations across 33 states, touching more than 100,000 families.
Jean passed away on January 28th, 2017 at the age of 86 from complications of her 40-year battle with multiple sclerosis. She was an inspirational woman and entrepreneur, and despite her passing, her values live on in Griswold Home Care today.
Our Griswoldness
At the core, Jean’s values and our Griswoldness are based on one simple, overarching idea: Dignity–The state or quality of being worthy of honor or respect.
Dignity encompasses every aspect of our company and embraces:- The care recipient who seeks to maintain quality of life in their home with the aid of caregivers who help them retain the dignity of independent living in the place they love.
- The caregiver who has chosen a profession of compassionate care and is deserving of the dignity and recognition for their tireless and often selfless work.
- The Griswold franchisees, their employees, and the Home Office staff who have chosen to work in a special business of dignified purpose at the intersection of commerce and compassion.
