Common Home Care Services
Flexible Services on Your Terms
No two clients are the same, which means no two care plans should be, either. At Griswold Home Care, we offer a wide variety of services so that we can perfectly accommodate the unique needs of each of our clients. People often ask us what the phrases ‘home care services’ or ‘caregiver services’ mean. These phrases refer to a broad range of care types and the specific duties of each.
Caregivers can assist with activities of daily living that we would normally do ourselves to remain functional at home, like bathing, dressing, hygiene cooking and much more. Internal staff members from each office work with you to understand your needs. Before you are provided services, a care coordinator will speak with you over the phone and meet with you in person for an in-home visit to discuss your needs and preferences.
