Overview
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.
Products & Services
GRISWOLD SPECIAL CARE is a non-medical home care company. We refer Caregivers who provide in-home care services including personal care, homemaking, companionship, and other home care services.
Non-medical home care services are becoming a popular alternative to nursing homes, and our home care services are often used in conjunction with home health care and assisted living services.
GRISWOLD SPECIAL CARE coined the term "non-medical" home care to describe those services that often supplement or lead up to the level of care provided by home healthcare agencies. For GRISWOLD SPECIAL CARE, non-medical home care includes personal care (bathing, toileting, continence care, lifting, assistance with ambulation, and feeding) homemaking (cooking, laundry, light housekeeping), and companionship (shopping, errands, and incidental transportation). Historically, non-medical home care included senior home care services serving only seniors and the elderly. Today, not only do we provide senior home care and elderly home care services, but also help individuals with disabilities who often need non-medical home care services.
Training & 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.
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.
