Griswold Home Care was founded by the late Jean Griswold in 1982, making us the oldest non-medical home care franchise organization in the country. As a pioneer in our industry, we support families by referring professional caregivers for personal care, homemaking, and companionship services. Our company was built on the timeless values of compassion and care—and these ideals are always at the heart of all that we do. We are proud that the services we provide help our clients remain in the homes they love.

Our desire to give back led us to establish the Jean Griswold Scholarship Foundation which assists individuals seeking to further their education in a care-related field. We hire hard-working, dedicated individuals who uphold our values and ensure our clients receive the top-quality care they need. To show our appreciation for all they do, we offer our employees above-average pay, robust appreciation programs, and opportunities for growth and development to help them build rewarding careers.
