    Other than some initial difficulties getting the schedule worked out the service has been absolutely fantastic. The Girswold office staff did an amazing job getting care for my mother-in-law lined up on what was very short notice. The care givers have been excellent as well and having them has enabled us to allow my mother-in-law to recover from major surgery in her own home instead of going to a rehab facility. Considering the current uncertainties centered around the Covid-19 pandemic, allowing an elderly patient to recover at home is a substantial advantage to both the family and the patient.

    My family has been very happy with Griswold over the last nine months of utilizing their services to provide care for my mom (who has Alzheimer's). Christine and the office staff have been very helpful, responding quickly to any questions we have had about caregivers, scheduling, billing, insurance claims, etc. In addition, both caregivers assigned to care for my mom have been fantastic - very caring and competent! They are punctual and reliable and kind. They listen to my dad's requests in terms of what types of care and services would be most helpful to he and my mom, but also proactively make suggestions of their own. They are empathetic and have taken an interest in what seems to make my mom happier - e.g., figuring out what song my mom is humming and tracking down a recording of it. We are very grateful for the support Griswold provides!

    Provider Response

    Thank you for providing such in depth feedback about your family's experience working with Griswold. I am pleased to know the caregivers we have scheduled with your mom continue to be such a good fit and that your interactions with our office team have also been positive.

    While I am a relatively new client, I've been very favorably impressed by the professionalism of everyone that I have encountered on their staff. The caretaker assigned to my wife is wonderful. She is dedicated, attentive to the needs of my wife, and eager to help in any way possible. She has even given me some hints and tips on how I can improve the care that I'm able to give my wife. She certainly personifies the Griswold slogan of "Home Care delivered with Heart" and we are very fortunate to have her assigned to us.

    Provider Response

    Being able to provide attentive care to our clients and helpful support to their family members is what sets Griswold's caregivers apart. Thank you for sharing what a difference her caring knowledge and experience has made in your and your wife's lives.

    When I was researching home care for myself I learned that rarely was a review written by the person being cared for. My review is. I am 85 and bedridden. I have been in Groswold NoVa East care (live-in) since early 2018. I am treated very well by Christine and her staff. Home care is not an easy service to provide. Yet they address any issue that may arise quickly and with a really caring attitude for both client and caregiver. If a pairing does not fit, they fix it. If the live-in caregiver needs a break, they provide good substitute caregivers. A friendly and helpful voice is always there if you call with a question or need. One more thought: I was able to care for my mother when she needed it, but if I had been unable to do so, I would have wanted people like Christine and her crew to be her caregivers.

    Provider Response

    Thank you very much for taking the time to post your review and share your positive experience working with our office. We strive to provide just the sort of care and personal attention you describe. It is our pleasure to have you as one of our clients.

    You will probably only call Griswold Home Care at a critically bad moment in your life. Lucky for you your life will get a little bit easier when you do. Your loved one will still be sick or in need but the team at Griswold will help you in an efficient, caring, knowledgeable, reliable and all around fantastic way. Our newly married daughter became almost completely paralyzed over the course of a few days with Guillain-Barre syndrome. After weeks in the hospital, she was approaching discharge and we needed to find home care. Navigating through the best caregiver agencies was enormously difficult. To complicate matters, we knew our daughter needed personal care assistance at home, but she refused. None of the caregiver agencies we interviewed had experience with GBS patients and so we were naturally concerned. But Griswold and Stephanie stood out tremendously. Stephanie responded to our concerns openly and with integrity. She understood our daughter’s frustration with dependency and offered her the most beautiful gift of agency. I get choked up thinking about it because GBS had taken away all her privacy, independence, and control. Stephanie brilliantly understood. I cannot express enough the relief and comfort we felt after meeting Stephanie and knowing we found the best caregiver agency. The Griswold CNAs are caring, compassionate, experienced and patient: especially patient, because at the outset our daughter was overwhelmed and sent every caregiver home. But this is where we saw the Griswold team at its most outstanding. Collette, the Care Manager, correctly intuited our daughter’s state of mind, adapted her care plan and found a perfect match for her with caregiver “I”. With caregiver “I” our daughter’s days brightened and she focused on her recovery. Griswold continues to provide our daughter with outstanding care and for us, peace of mind. Their flexibility in accommodating her constantly changing hours, days, and needs is extremely important and very much appreciated. As she graduates this month from in-home PT to outpatient PT, we rest easy knowing a Griswold CNA will be by her side during this next stage in her recovery. Thank you Griswold. I don’t know what we would do without you.

    Provider Response

    Thank you so very much for your heartfelt and detailed review. I shared this posting in our staff meeting on Monday and it was a wonderful reminder of why we do the work that we do, and how much of a difference it makes in the lives of the families we have the privilege of working with.

    I’m speaking for four of us when I say we could not be happier with the care provided by Griswold employees. We hired Griswold to provide weekly visits to my brother in a nursing home. The two women who visit are highly responsible, trustworthy, considerate, warm-hearted caregivers. Their duties include calling family members (who all live out of state) so we can talk to my brother. He clearly loves their visits, and we have noticed a significant improvement in his mood, comprehension, and overall health since the visits began. The visitors also inform us when he needs any extra attention, like haircuts, and they inform the staff when they notice anything that requires medical attention. They often bring him out to the patio to enjoy the fresh air. The office staff always get back to us quickly, and are consistently courteous, informative, and pro-active in their responses. We give Griswold our highest recommendation.

    Provider Response

    It has been our pleasure to provide care and support to your brother and to have the chance to work with all of you. The caregivers assigned to him know how important those family calls are to his well being and enjoy being able to help with that and in many other ways. We are so glad the extra attention and care has had made such a positive impact on his health.

    Griswold has been a very caring and responsive company to work with from the very beginning of our care needs for an injured and aging mother. Christine explained how their in home services worked, and Stephanie who conducted the interview and sign up activities was wonderful. Over the past two years Griswold's staff helped with resolution of some long term care insurance issues. They have the care staff to meet all our mother's care needs. They also do follow up calls and visits. Truly a great company and staff.

    Provider Response

    We so appreciate your review and am happy to learn your experience with us has been such a positive one for you and your mother. Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback.

    When he time came for additional help for a relative several companies were recommended. When Christine came with her CNA for their interview I realized that Griswold was the company for us. I have never been disappointed. The office keeps in touch and any call is promptly answered! The caregiver we have is wonderful and my relative looks forward to seeing her.

    Provider Response

    Thanks very much for the positive feedback. It has been our pleasure to assist you and your loved one. Our caregiver very much enjoys working with him, so nice to know he feels the same about her.

    When it became necessary to find home health care for my friend, Griswold was recommended to me by her Nurse Manager. We have a truly wonderful care provider who works so hard to meet all of her needs and more, so caring and understanding of my friend, it makes me so happy to know she's in good hands. The office personnel has always been willing and able to meet our requests for her care, always trying to put in place what I request, and for that I'm also very thankful.

    Provider Response

    I am glad to know our office team and the caregiver we paired with your friend have been so helpful. It has been our pleasure at Griswold to assist both of you. Thank you so much for the kind feedback.

    I interviewed this provider

    Two months ago our world was turned upside down when my father suffered a stroke. An otherwise healthy and active man living by himself, we were faced with some difficult decisions to make. It was important to my Dad and our family that he be able to rehab in his own home but that also required us to have 24 hour care for him. I will always be grateful to the Griswold Home Care agency. Stephanie was wonderful with guiding us through the process and Janet our CNA I think might truly have been an angel. She provided competent, supportive, and nurturing care. Blended into our family and gave my Dad the confidence to return to his normal routine. Today my Dad is almost back to doing all the things he did before. The peace and reassurance, knowing that my Dad was in good hands during this otherwise chaotic time in our lives, will always be appreciated.

    When I called Griswold Home Care and had a conversation with them, they seemed to be on the ball. So, I decided to go with them. I think the management is amazing. They are very responsive and very helpful. They work with you in terms of what you need and understand what it is you need. The quality of the person they sent has been spot on great. I'm very happy working with them.

    I think they've done really really well. In fact, way better than I expected. I''m still using them and I've been very happy with the last two caregivers. They've been great. Christine is also great. She is really outstanding and is always there to help me. She is always very patient and understanding. She always respond very quickly and gets everything done.
