Franchise History
A geriatric counselor and clergyman’s wife, Jean C. Griswold founded Griswold Home Care in 1982 to help people remain independent. Griswold was inspired to start the program after an elderly widow from her husband’s church died of kidney failure because she couldn’t find anyone to take care of her at night. The company’s first employees were graduate students from local seminaries. Griswold was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis in 1990.
