Griswold Home Care is the first non-medical home care franchise in the United States. Founded by Jean Griswold in 1982, after she realized a lack of care and resources available to many seniors and adults with disabilities, we’ve grown into one of the most respected and successful franchise systems in the country. Jean’s legacy of empathy and compassion is at the heart of who we are today. Our franchise owners are among the longest-tenured and highest-performing in our industry.
Griswold Home Care provides important services that seniors, disabled adults, and those with illnesses need to remain independent, active, and healthy at home. These include:

We also offer tips for hiring the best employees, how to make more sales, and how to build a strong referral base of customers. You are in business for yourself, but not by yourself!

We’ll also help you scale your business in a smart way that will enable you to hire more employees and take on more jobs.
