Griswold Home Care of Fargo

Don Z_2

They spent four or five hours with her so that she's not alone during that time, it mostly helps with my daily life. They take very good care of Ardis, the way I've been getting help has been off and on so I'm seeing lots of different people and they're all very good.

They hired a competent caregiver who is compassionate and patient. The agency was very responsive, but most likely we liked the caregiver, Miranda.

Vicki B_16

They were very dependable, personable, and genuinely interested in people and not just showing up to do the job. They had good conversations with my dad. They were personable, helpful, compassionate, and dependable.

They have adapted to the care plan as time has gone by, so we are getting the services needed. There's been adjustments that have needed to be made, and they have done that. We only have a caregiver part-time, but it's made such a difference in my life. I find the caretakers to be very caring and accommodating. I also find management people to be very similar. Very responsive. If today's society, this is going to be rare, but the management has been very responsive.

Heidi K_5

They could try to engage my mom with getting out of the house. I like them because they are responsive, and a person answers the phone. The communication is very good with the caregiver.

Wilmar "Bill" L

It would help us to have more hours, but we are very happy with the help we are getting. Our caregiver, Jonathon, is excellent.

Sheila S_11

I think just helping her with her activities and her mornings. They are there when they are expected.

Bruce A_6

We slowly added more hours. I should have had them do more for me. They were prompt and good.

Coleen M_1

They help me because I do not worry about him when I am gone. I would recommend them because I have had several of their people out here with my husband and they have all be absolutely fabulous with him.

The main thing I want is for my wife to shower and one time they sent a male to do the job and that didn't seem appropriate. They dig right in and try to get things done and they would do even more

Denis R

They help with eating and showering. I like that they are very easy to reach, very accommodating, and they have very good people.

Kay D_3

They were there and I couldn't be there. I got answer to my phone calls when I needed them. Some were angels and absolutely fantastic. The caregiver we had an issue with got fired. She left my mom unattended and lied when she was there. They were very helpful working the hospital of the red river valley.

Jeffrey H_2

They have helped the most with just being very responsive. I would recommend them because they are very professional.

Diane S_38

The care is very necessary. They struggle with taking care of a confused old lady.

It's given me time to get away and do things that are needed to get done. The lady from Griswold Home Care that the client sees is knowledgeable.

Theresa H_11

He is in a good and happy mood when she leaves. He giggles with her and then put on music. They have great employees and Mandy is great with my father. The nurse is excellent as well.

They also pay attention to details. I am recommending them because they are prompt and know what they are doing.

Joellen C

I can't help Robert the way he needs. I like that they work very hard to cover the needed shifts.

They have helped the most by just being able to get a caregiver to come who is good at working for me. I like that they have good communication with me like if there is anything going on with scheduling with the caregiver.

Barb J_3

My father is declining, so it's hard to say about the impact. It is helpful, and she does the best she can. I like the caregiver that comes to help my dad. She does a really nice job.

Kevin K_11

I don't think that the client is really opening up to the idea of home care. They are professional and knowledgeable.

Someone is always there with my mom. We love our caregiver.

Steve P_6

It gave me time to relax and gave me a break. They listen and do good work.

Betty L_20

The agency helped us the most because it allowed my mom to get out of the home at least once a week. My mom's caregiver was excellent at being patient, kind, and loving.

Cathy A_5

They get things completed around the house and someone else is in the house to help, which does the client a world of good. They have saved our relationship as a family, since they ease frustration by cleaning. We've only used them for a couple weeks. We had an incident where we reached out and got help immediately.

Mary M_70

They take care of the more routine aspects of caring and that allows us not to have to be there every day. I like their flexibility and they care about my mom.

Lori J_4

They are very receptive to when I need them to take my mom to her appointments. They are really good to my mom and they always do a good job in making sure she gets to her appointments.

Mary E_26

We live far away, and they give us a measure of safety knowing that eyes are on our family. They have been very flexible when our needs changed.

Anonymous_5742

My wife doesn't need that much attention. The caregivers just need to be here and be her companion. The agency seems to be able to provide us good care. They also listen to our concerns, which I appreciate.

Mary S_57

She goes above and beyond her duties to help me. The most important thing is that I know she actually cares about me. I really like my caregiver, she is exceptional. She does everything I ask of her and then some.

Dennis S_19

My wife has had a stroke; they help her get out of bed. They come out here and help my wife.

Anonymous_5358

It would've been helpful if they could take heavy things out of the oven and assist with showering. I enjoyed all the caregivers I met and I enjoyed their companionship.

Stephan B_1

They need more caregivers. I like that they help my brother stand.

Kathy B_31

They have allowed me to have someone else to help rather than just me alone. They show up for us.

Jim B_19

They drive me to the hospital when I need to get surgery. They're on time when they are scheduled to come over.

Kevin L_5

They help him with a few daily tasks and provide peace of mind. They are able to work well. A couple of their caregivers are outstanding.

Karen B_28

The caregivers are great at interacting with him. He isn't very verbal, so they go out of their way to make him comfortable. I have been very impressed with this agency. They offer great prices and services.

Kevin L_4

They provide good service, it's just that Marion is not overly accepting of care. It's not that they need to improve as much as it is what the other person is looking for in care. I think that different types of care are needed for different types of situations.

Gerald E

The agency provides all the help that I need. They have pretty decent people who take care of you pretty well.

Allyn W_1

They're very responsive with us. They're very accommodating to our needs.

Anonymous_4190

Mostly I just needed companionship, I was in the hospital with covid so it was nice to have while transitioning to a move. It is nice to have someone to chat with. I did ask for a caregiver who was more conversant in English more than the one I received because mostly we sat in silence so there was communication difficulty. They did replace her though.

Nebiyou "Roc" M

They have done everything to make it positive. I hate going out of the house, and they go to the stores for me. They cook and clean for me. They work with me. They do what I want to do.

Bruno & Hanna

Great person and nurse. We love him. He is the best help for us. We are thankful for having him in our lives.

Steve F_8

It gives me the respite I need. They are always able to schedule people when I need them. Their care is good.

Norma M_12

It's been great for me because this whole year I've been in and out of the hospital. They've been a godsend; it's worth every penny. They're just so caring, and my caregiver is the most caring person in the world.

K. Hanson

We are so grateful for Griswold! When my father started rapidly declining because of dementia, we started their services part-time. After he had a heart attack and needed round-the-clock care, they were able to accommodate that need within 24 hours. They also care for my mother who has several physical and mental health issues. Each of the caregivers has been well-trained, supportive, loving, nurturing, flexible and attentive. They keep detailed records and inform us of any concerns. The administration is excellent to communicate with - easily reachable and timely in responding to emails/phone calls. During a bad snowstorm, Josh made sure that my parents had 24-hour care, driving the caregivers through very tough weather conditions. When my father died after only 5 months of care, Griswold was extremely supportive. They had become like family to us and have helped us through a really difficult time. Now, my mother has continued with Griswold for just a few hours a day. Her caregiver has been amazing with helping her with her daily needs and lifting her spirits. Griswold has been an answer to our prayers. Without any reservations, we highly recommend Griswold for home-based care.

We had a great experience with the Griswold Home Care Team in Fargo. We has experience with several other in home care companies and also a nursing home experience. We had to kiss many frogs before finding our prince! The Griswold Home Care Team (GHCTF) was consistent, no surprises on billing, and built a special report with my Mom who was not always warm and fuzzy. The assistance allowed family members relief, and time to take care of their own families. The caregivers played games with our Mother, kept her clean, styled her hair, painted her nails, gave her pride in her appearance on a daily basis. This was above and beyond based on care from other companies. Meals were prepared, medicine reminders given promptly and her house was always clean and tidy. If we had schedule changes, the team was responsive. One nice service offered by GHCTF was they collected from the insurance company. The other home care teams we worked with had us pay them and then we had to deal with the insurance company for reimbursements. If you have done this before, it is time consuming and frustrating. Special thanks to Jamie, who cleared her calendar the last 24 hours of our Mother's life to assist with Hospice and all the moving parts that came with the surprise passing. Based on our experience, GHCTF is far superior in care and business practices than the several other companies we experienced in Fargo, ND.

I have my medications set up by the nurses every week. I look forward to their visits and they always seem happy to see me. They go over each medication with me as they are setting them up. I have weekly testing that affects how much medication I’m supposed to take. When I need to talk to one of the nurses, I always get a call back quickly if they aren’t able to talk to me when I call. I would tell anyone that needs help with their medications to only call griswald.

We have nothing but wonderful things to say about Griswold Home Care. They have been such a blessing for my Dad. He has complex medical issues that require top-notch aides, flexibility and quick thinking from his home health agency. From the perspective of his staffing, we couldn't be happier. He has the most qualified, kind, and nurturing staff members. They take excellent care of him while maintaining a happy, healthy apartment for him to live in. We are just as happy with Griswold's office staff as we are with his aides. They are there for us whenever we need them. Even if that means in the middle of the night, or early on a Sunday morning. They've been able to arrange staffing at a moment's notice (literally) due to an unexpected hospital discharge. Crystal, Lance, Alexis and the other staff are so helpful when it comes to problem-solving and keeping on top of his numerous issues. As I tell his staff often, he's able to live in his own place because of them. He'd be in a nursing home right now if not for the qualified services provided by Griswold. I wholeheartedly recommend Griswold to anyone looking for home health care. They are the best and we couldn't be happier.

We loved the care Griswold provided for us! They treated him like their own grandpa! So caring, kind, and compassionate! The staff had wonderful communication with us as well. We would highly recommend them to anyone looking for home health care.

Griswold Home Care of Fargo provided excellent service for our family during the recent need for in home care. Employees were caring and quickly established a relationship with the in home patient. Staff were always very timely even when we requested 24 hour care with multiple care providers. The staff were asked to keep accurate records of services provided and monitored use of medications. All records were kept up to date and timely. Griswold Home Care was very responsive to special requests and changed employees to make the best of difficult home care services required by the patient. Through the in-home services period Griswold employees showed empathy, kindness, and friendship towards all family members. We are grateful for the services provided and caring relationships that developed during the in-home health care period.

We moved our mother out of a residential care facility when her dementia and physical needs began to surpass the care we could get at the facility. Feeling that mom was at the point where she needed one-on-one care (and surrounded by family), we chose to go with Griswold on the recommendation of several of the staff of the care facility. It was the perfect move for us in this stage of her disease. Our mom is less anxious and hostile. She receives care on her schedule as opposed to the group’s schedule. And the caregivers are absolutely wonderful. They all interact well with mom and don’t mind having other family members around. And the caregivers work well and support each other. Overall, we spend much more time with mom, yet it is much less stressful than spending time at the care facility as mom’s disease progressed. There are many different care options in our community. Each has a specific role and can meet certain needs. Dealing with dementia, we’ve discovered that as needs change, so do care option priorities. We know we made the right decision to switch to in-home one-on-one care. And we know that we didn’t go wrong when we selected Griswold.
