Rich Tradition of Excellence

Since 1982, GRISWOLD SPECIAL CARE has helped individuals to stay independent in their own homes. Our founder, Dr. Jean Griswold, was a pioneer in the non-medical senior care industry. During an era with limited home care resources for older family members, GRISWOLD SPECIAL CARE was one of the first companies in the US to offer non-medical home care services.

Our caring philosophy, combining high standards with affordability, has made our name synonymous with top quality service. Our unique market niche (personal care, supportive care and homemaking services) has resulted in national coverage from broadcasts like NBC's Today show and publications like Forbes , Entrepreneur, and Success magazines. The combination of our decades-long reputation, our state-of-the art training program, and our focus on quality make GRISWOLD SPECIAL CARE one of the most trusted names in the home care industry.

Advice and Support

With more than 150 years of combined home care experience, our corporate staff is arguably the most knowledgeable support staff in the industry. Ninety-four percent of our staff operates in a support role, offering training and advice in marketing, legal, operational, and customer service issues. At GRISWOLD SPECIAL CARE, GRISWOLD SPECIAL CARE's share of the revenues goes back into problem solving for your home care franchise. Only 6% of our resources are dedicated to new home care franchise recruitment, compared to an industry standard where up to 80% of the franchiser's resources are dedicated to finding new franchisees.

Our Proven Business System

With close to a quarter of a century in home care, we have honed a system that works. We will train you at our headquarters and provide a complete array of forms, manuals, and software to take the guesswork out of running a non-medical home care franchise. We will guide you in market studies, provide brochures, and deliver ongoing phone support from our corporate staff. We will visit your office periodically and as needed to provide continuing feedback and guidance.

A Rewarding Business

Our Directors have the opportunity to achieve financial independence while making a significant difference in the lives of others. As a result, senior home care offers great personal satisfaction. When family members call to thank you for helping their loved ones, you will know your hard work is worthwhile.

Growth Industry

As more people realize that home care is a feasible and affordable alternative to entering a facility, the industry is becoming one of the fastest growing industries in America. Older adults represent the largest growth segment of the population, and this trend is expected to increase dramatically over the next decade.
