My sister and I trusted dad when he said he didn’t need help. That was till I received a phone call that my dad had fallen. I talked to a few different companies and felt good about Griswold. We used home care for almost 9 months and Griswold was a lifesaver. We needed care immediately and Griswold had a caregiver at my dad’s home the next morning. I am forever grateful to the Griswold team.

Will and the Griswold have been amazing for me and my family. My husband and I live in Chicago and we worry about mom being by herself 1,000 miles away. From the moment I spoke with Will on the phone, he put me at ease. We get weekly updates about Mom and Griswold goes out of their way to celebrate special events: Birthdays, Mother's Day, etc. Griswold has been an angel in disguise.

We are very pleased with the care that Griswold is providing us as well as the caregiver that was chosen for my mother. We chose them because they were very upfront with the fees and then I spoke to someone there and the consultation went well.
