The Benefits of Investing in Companion Care in Fayetteville

Companionship care has several advantages, particularly for elderly people who are lonely or live alone. A companion can offer countless hours of emotional support through social engagement, discussion, and active listening in addition to helping with daily tasks like transportation or errands. These connections can go a long way toward reducing feelings of loneliness and even reducing the likelihood that loved ones will experience sadness or anxiety. Also, having a companion caregiver reduces the stress on family caregivers and enables them to continue working or take much-needed breaks for many older persons. But perhaps most importantly, companion carers can offer safety oversight and support elders in maintaining their independence, making them a vital resource for seniors.

Signs Your Loved One May Need Companion Care Services

A loved one may feel worried about the future of their freedom after deciding to hire additional support. Yet, we want you to know that our intention is not to diminish autonomy but to improve general quality of life.

There are various indicators you may look for that may help you decide whether to provide more assistance for your elderly family member.

About Jean Griswold

Our founder, Jean Griswold, was a care professional who became a visionary entrepreneur when she started the first non-medical home care franchise in the United States while running her own home care business.

Jean started at her dining room table in 1982 in suburban Philadelphia. Her husband, Minister and Doctor Lincoln Griswold, informed her that an elderly woman in their parish had died through the complications associated with malnutrition and dehydration because she had no support system to care for her. Jean was deeply saddened by what she felt was an easily preventable tragedy. She was driven to act.

Jean Griswold was an extraordinary leader. She was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis in 1967 at the age of 36 but continued to work actively in her office until she was 79. She published a book, “Fears of the Elderly” in 2013.

Jean was born in New York City. She received a bachelor’s degree in economics and business from Douglass College and a master’s degree in personnel and guidance from Rutgers University. She received an honorary doctorate from Holy Family University in 2006. From 2003 to 2004 she was Entrepreneur in Residence at the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania. She won numerous awards, including the Spirit of Philadelphia Award, the Working Woman’s 2001 Entrepreneur of the Year honor, and the 2002 MS National Achievement Award of the National Multiple Sclerosis Society.

Jean passed away on January 28th, 2017 at the age of 86. She was an inspirational woman and entrepreneur, and despite her passing, her values live on in Griswold Home Care today.
