SALT LAKE CITY —&nbsp;<a href="https://www.griswoldcare.com/">Griswold</a>, a leader in non-medical home care franchising, recently wrapped up its 2026 National Franchise Conference, “Rising Together: From Roots to Summit,” held April 28-30 at the Little America Hotel in Salt Lake City, Utah. Franchisees, Home Office staff and strategic partners gathered from across the country for three days of education, collaboration, and celebration.“Our theme this year really reflected who we are as an organization,” said&nbsp;<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/michael-slupecki-08b2288/">Michael Slupecki</a>, CEO of&nbsp;<a href="https://griswoldhomecarefranchise.com/">Griswold</a>. “We always lean on our history, our shared values, and the foundation that Jean Griswold built, while asking ourselves how we’re going to use those strengths to reach new summits as a company. It was an incredible opportunity to bring the entire network together around that vision.”The conference featured a carefully curated lineup of educational sessions, networking opportunities, and strategic discussions. “We received feedback from franchisees that the content was the best we’ve ever had,” Slupecki said. “Our goal is to provide our franchisees with the tools they need to succeed in their communities. We connect them at the conference to vendors who can have meaningful conversations with them and provide practical insights they can take back to their businesses.”The conference's sponsorship program reflected that intentional approach, bringing together industry-leading partners to connect directly with&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/griswold/info">Griswold</a> franchisees from across the country. With more than 100 owner groups representing over 200 territories in 30 states, the event served as the largest in-person gathering of the Griswold system in 2026 and provided valuable opportunities for education, collaboration, and relationship building.Senior Regional Director&nbsp;<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/shannon-gettier-3a908b51">Shannon Gettier</a>, who has spent 14 years with the Griswold system in both corporate and now franchise leadership roles, the quality of vendor participation stood out immediately.“I’ve attended a lot of Griswold conferences over the years, and this year, specifically, the vendors were great, and they were super intentional,” Gettier said. “They were there to provide opportunities and support for our businesses. A lot of work goes into making sure the event delivers value.”Beyond the educational content, attendees highlighted the opportunity to connect with fellow franchisees from across the country as one of the conference's greatest benefits. “That’s one of the best parts,” Gettier said. “Just having all of us in a room together is incredibly valuable. There’s nothing like spending three days together, sharing meals, talking through challenges and learning from one another. We’re able to share best practices and learn from other franchisees in ways that simply can’t happen virtually.”For newer franchise owners, the conference offered a chance to step back from the day-to-day responsibilities of running a business and gain perspective from experienced operators.“The conference was the first one I attended as a franchise owner,” said&nbsp;<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/jason-dubose-sphr-shrm-scp/">Jason DuBose</a>, a&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/griswold-home-care-sumter-jason-dubose-new-owner-2731819">new Griswold franchisee in South Carolina</a>. “You could tell a tremendous amount of preparation and thought went into the event. It was large enough to bring together people from all over the country, but it still had an intimate feel where you could connect directly with franchise leaders, vendors, and fellow owners.”DuBose said the educational sessions and networking opportunities helped him better envision the future of his business. “As a new owner, it’s easy to get caught up in the daily challenges,” he said. “The conference gave me the opportunity to connect with people who have already been where I am and see what their businesses look like one year, five years, or even 10 years down the road. You really can’t measure the value of those conversations.”One of the most anticipated moments of the conference was the annual Griswold Awards Reception. Award recipients included:<ul><li>Client and Caregiver Satisfaction Award:&nbsp;<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/marshalloden/">Marshall Oden</a> — Griswold Home Care for North Dallas, Garland &amp; Rockwall, Texas</li><li>Marketing Award:&nbsp;<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/brucemcreynolds/">Bruce McReynolds</a> and the Griswold Home Care for Burlington and Griswold Home Care for Greensboro, North Carolina team</li><li>New Owner Award:&nbsp;<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/nolan-chandler-047858124/">Nolan Chandler</a> and the Griswold Home Care for Greater Temecula, California team</li><li>Griswoldness Award: recognizing the exceptional contributions of those who go above and beyond&nbsp; their everyday duties to support the company by actively serving&nbsp; fellow franchisees and improving the brand:&nbsp;<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/michael-assimon-a8837216/">Michael Assimon</a> — Griswold Care Pairing for Central New York</li><li>Beacon Award:&nbsp;recognizing an office that has achieved notable success, at times following its own path, while remaining engaged in and supportive of Home Office programs and platforms.

When she was recognized, everyone stood and gave her a well-deserved ovation. It was a powerful reminder of the legacy and culture that makes Griswold special.”The conference also demonstrated the strength of the Griswold community through its ongoing support of the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.jeangriswoldfoundation.org/">Jean Griswold Foundation</a>. During the annual gala, attendees raised a record-setting $128,000 to support Caregiver scholarships and workforce development initiatives.“We set a new fundraising record this year, which speaks volumes about the generosity and passion of our franchisees and partners,” Slupecki said. “Supporting Caregivers has always been central to who we are as a brand, and the success of the Jean Griswold Foundation continues to create opportunities for Caregivers across the country.”As the conference concluded, Slupecki encouraged franchisees to carry the momentum of the event back to their local markets.“The energy throughout the week was incredible,” he said. “Our franchisees continue to raise the bar, support one another and embrace new opportunities to serve their communities. We left Salt Lake City inspired, connected and ready to continue rising together.”To find out more information on costs to buy a Griswold franchise, please visit&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/griswold/info">https://1851franchise.com/griswold/info</a>.ABOUT GRISWOLD:With more than 200 locations across 31 states, Griswold is one of the country’s top home care companies, providing and referring professional, compassionate Caregivers around the clock.

When&nbsp;<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/brett-myhre-certified-senior-advisor-csa-%C2%AE-cdp-9a25889/">Brett</a> and&nbsp;<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/nicole-myhre-50a926a0/">Nicole Myhre</a> first launched their&nbsp;<a href="https://griswoldcare.com/">Griswold</a> business in the Greater Twin Cities, they weren’t thinking about six territories. They were focused on doing everything themselves and doing it well.“We were doing everything and wearing multiple hats,” Brett said. “As we continued to steadily grow, we started to add more people to the team to be able to keep up with the demand.”That demand came quickly. Within just two years,&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/griswold/how-this-graphic-designer-and-hairstylist-found-a-new-passion-with-griswold-franchise-in-minnesota-2725561">the couple had already outgrown their initial setup</a>, moving into a larger office and expanding their team with key roles like case managers and recruitment coordinators.&nbsp;<h2>Scaling With Purpose, Not Just Speed</h2>Today, the Myhres own six territories across the Twin Cities, which is a milestone that didn’t happen by accident. “Part of that is the fact that there weren’t really any Griswold locations in the Twin Cities area, so when we brought it here, it was kind of a double-edged sword because no one had ever heard of the brand, but we also had room to grow,” Brett said.That lack of brand recognition meant the Myhres had to build trust from the ground up by educating families, establishing credibility, and proving their commitment to high-quality care.As their reputation grew, so did demand, often beyond the boundaries of their initial territories. Expanding into adjacent areas became both a natural next step and a way to better serve Clients already seeking their care.“We were getting Clients in different areas, and now that we have purchased those, we are locked in,” Brett said. “We had to work really hard to build that brand recognition in the area. That has really paid off.”<h2>Leveraging the Griswold System to Grow</h2>While much of their growth has been driven by local execution, Brett credits&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/griswold/info">the Griswold system</a> with helping them scale effectively.&nbsp;“When we first bought our first territory, their branding was already great,” he said. “We had only been in business for maybe a year, and they decided to do&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/griswold/griswold-embraces-innovation-with-new-brand-evolution-2722028">a big rebrand update</a>. We were really on board for it. When they did the rebrand, it really helped support our growth by making it more recognizable. The timing really worked out well for us because it set us up on a new path with all new branding and recognition.”Combined with Griswold’s established systems and tools, the refreshed brand gave the Myhres a stronger platform to expand into new territories with consistency.“We are at well over 100 Caregivers at this point,” Brett said. “And that is a big responsibility — that is a lot of people relying on us to provide opportunities for them.”That responsibility shapes how they lead. “I think it’s very important that you treat everybody fairly,” he said. “Our whole branding is about Living Assured. For Clients, we are going to show up and do a good job. For Caregivers, we can give you the consistent hours you need to take care of your families. We want to ensure they know that we can’t do this without them.”<a href="https://1851franchise.com/griswold/griswold-celebrates-national-caregivers-day-by-announcing-winter-scholarship-winners-through-the-jean-griswold-foundation-2731484">By prioritizing Caregiver support and stability</a>, the Myhres have built a culture that supports both employee retention and consistent Client care.“It’s been so rewarding — this career and this business is not easy by any means,” Brett said. “You are dealing with people. Sometimes it can be tough because there is a lot of unknown.”Providing reassurance during those moments is what makes the work meaningful. “For us, being part of people’s care plan and giving that reassurance is great,” he said. “When you have those days when the family reaches back out to you, it really feels great. That’s the reason we do it.”<h2>Growing Without Losing What Matters</h2>Even with six territories and two office locations now in operation, the Myhres are intentional about how they approach the future.“About a year ago, we opened another office location,” Brett said. “We now have two offices open that manage the six territories. Our focus right now, for this year especially, is to focus on providing high-quality care.”As they look ahead, the Myhres are spending as much time improving the business they already have as they are thinking about the next territory. Growth is still on the table, but only if they can&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/griswold/griswold-celebrates-record-breaking-best-of-home-care-recognition-including-no-1-ranked-provider-nationwide-2731912">maintain the standard of care that got them this far</a>.“As far as long-term growth, we plan to continue expanding, but at a pace that aligns with the quality too,” Brett said. “We aren’t going to keep growing just to grow. We are going to do it the right way.”From a single territory to six in just six years, the Myhres have built a scalable business by combining operational discipline, community trust, and a clear sense of purpose.To find out more information steps to owning a Griswold franchise, please visit&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/griswold/info">https://1851franchise.com/griswold/info</a>.
