Griswold

Siblings Kamal and Krushna Panda, with the help of their niece, Shantadeepa Pani, are forging a family pact inspired by their parents in India. After spending over 25 years building success in the U.S., the sting of their inability to care for their aging parents abroad started to feel all too familiar. Losing their father to COVID-19 was the final heartbreaking revelation—it was time for a new chapter rooted in service.Like many care industry franchisees, Kamal says his family came in with a plan: senior care or bust. They vetted a number of legacy brands, but it was Griswold, a leading in-home care franchise, that stood out for its culture of compassion and leadership that felt like “an extension of family.” By combining Kamal’s business savvy, Krushna’s community networking skills and Shantadeepa’s background in marketing, this joint family is now building a legacy befitting of their roots in Farmington, Michigan. Kamal, Krushna and Shantadeepa took the time to chat with 1851 Franchise to discuss their transition into entrepreneurship and why home care is more than just a business for them.1851 Franchise: Frame your personal story for us. What do you want us to know?Kamal Panda: I have been in the United States for 25-plus years working in the banking and financial sector, but because of that, I've really been away from my parents. That gap of being able to serve and being available for taking care of the elderly has always been in my head. I lost my dad to COVID. In a personal way, I really felt connected to this concept of being a Caregiver or being in that industry as a transitional career choice for me.Krushna Panda:&nbsp;I am a very social person and an active member of a community here of about 200 Indian families. My husband and I lead the society; we do volunteering and social work because we love people. I have been in the U.S. for 26 years working in the IT industry, but serving older people has always been my passion. I have a happy family here, and my husband is also very active and curious about our new journey.Shantadeepa Pani: As for me, I received my bachelor's degree in science and my master’s in business with HR and marketing. I have eight and a half years of experience together in both sales and marketing. We grew up in a traditional joint family in India, so it has instilled in me a profound respect for elders and a strong sense of caring for family members and fostering an environment of love, affection, and respect.1851: What did you do before franchising, and how did you decide franchising made sense for you?Shantadeepa: I entered the United States in 2012, but at that time I didn't have my work authorization. From 2021, I started working, but all of a sudden I realized that having something of my own would be more fruitful for me. I am more inclined towards health and home care... We all decided this will be a good venture for us. We can all be together.&nbsp;Krushna: I worked in the IT industry for 26 years. While that profession is very different, I developed very good networking and relationship skills. I decided franchising made sense because I wanted to be independent, survive on my own, and no longer plan to work for someone else. I felt I could utilize my social skills and my network to prosper in a business that allows me to serve people. Everyone gets old and will eventually need service, so this has much more demand in the long run.Kamal:&nbsp;We felt going through a franchise will give us a jump start, provide the resources and know-how to get up to speed quickly, and get past a lot of the regulatory and compliance angles quickly — even the tools, technologies, marketing, all of that.&nbsp;1851: What was your perception of franchising prior to becoming a franchisee, and what do you want people to know about franchising now that you are in it?Krushna:&nbsp;A few years ago, I actually considered partnering with friends in an Indian restaurant. However, I saw that some of those businesses were unsuccessful because they had too many partners or the market was too crowded. Now that I am in this, I want people to know that it is more than just a typical business. You are dealing with lives and people who really need your affection and service. It is a way to fulfill a passion while also building a stable, business-oriented future.Shantadeepa: For me, I didn't know we had to create an LLC or DBA — all the technical stuff. I just thought you have to create your company, one LLC. There are other requirements that aren’t widely known, particularly for the home care industry, like NPI (National Provider Identifier). We discussed with many people who are the business owners in different locations, and they’ve been really helpful in catching us up to speed.1851: What made you pick this brand? What excites you most about this company?Kamal:&nbsp;We actually looked at three of them, and we connected with Griswold more than the others because of the personal connections we built. Starting from the franchise development officer to the COO, meeting with all the staff — it felt a little bit more connected versus just a pure business model. The biggest thing is it feels like you could ask a question either to the head office or to a franchise owner and there is a desire to share, coach and make somebody more effective... It feels a lot more connected and positive and not as competitive.Krushna:&nbsp;Exactly. While there wasn't a huge difference between this and other franchises on paper, the thing I loved most was the people. From the way they approach you to the way they help, I felt like I was communicating with a family member. That was the main interest that led me to join.&nbsp;Shantadeepa: Learning about the founding story of Griswold created an immediate connection. It reminded me of how my parents care for my grandmother and how my grandparents cared for us growing up. The core values we grew up with in our family are the things we need in this particular business. We are going to spend more and more time with the elderly people who need affection just like their own people and the support for their daily living.1851: What do you hope to achieve with your business? What are your plans for growth?Kamal:&nbsp;Do whatever it takes to reach the break-even number of clients as well as Caregivers in the first year. And then year two and three, we would like to expand to another territory next to it.Krushna: The initial plan was to take a couple of territories together, but since this is new for me, I didn't want to start alone. We decided to start with one to gain experience. Simultaneously, the plan is to grow, take more territories and expand so that my niece and brother can start on their own in Ohio and California. We want to capture more territories so we can expand our business and serve more people.1851: Is there anything else about your story you want us to know?Kamal:&nbsp;We are a family. We grew up in a joint family, so this is something we saw in our childhood. That piece was a common theme amongst the three of us. And since my niece and sister were both looking for work, they are really trying to leverage this as a full-time thing. They’re not just involved casually; they’re committed to making this their career moving forward.Krushna: This business is very personal for me. My mother-in-law, father-in-law and my father have all passed away, and I could not be there to serve them. I really missed that. Now, I want to treat my customers just like my own family members. There are many ways to earn money, but I opted for this because it is my passion. I am in my 50s, and I don't think I could find anything better than this. With my nature and my skills, I know I will do well.1851: What advice do you have for other people thinking about becoming franchise owners?Kamal: If you're on the fence, you should jump. There is a lot of help and, if you want to do something in the space, a lot of the franchise companies are very organized and get you up to speed quickly. We spent a lot of time just thinking, mulling over and analyzing. You should jump because it's better than I thought.Krushna: Everybody wants to do a business to be independent and survive, but I feel everyone should focus on the quality of the service provided. Don’t just do it to get money; you are dealing with lives. You are dealing with older people who really need your affection. Focus on providing quality service rather than just money-making. If you focus on the quality, the business will ultimately be there.Shantadeepa: I believe home care will grow, and it will not have any lack of demand in the future. The older population in the U.S. is rising. If somebody wants to come to this business, they should absolutely consider it.ABOUT GRISWOLD:With over 200 locations across 30 states, Griswold is one of the country’s top home care companies, providing and referring professional, compassionate Caregivers around the clock.

BLUE BELL, Pa. —&nbsp;<a href="https://www.griswoldcare.com/">Griswold</a>, the leading non-medical in-home care franchise, announced the winter 2026 recipients of its National Caregiver Scholarship Program in honor of National Caregivers Day on Feb. 20, 2026. The program, administered in partnership with the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.jeangriswoldfoundation.org/">Jean Griswold Foundation</a>, awarded its largest scholarship class to date, with 32 scholarships awarded totaling more than $73,000.“We are really excited for the Winter Scholarships winners — this was our biggest year ever,” said&nbsp;<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/sarah-latini-61835b2">Sarah Latini</a>, director of the Jean Griswold Foundation. “It really shows how far the message of the opportunity and its impacts are reaching across the country.”The scholarship recipients represent Caregivers at many stages of their education and professional journeys — from those pursuing CNA training to others advancing into nursing, gerontology, behavioral health, and graduate-level health care programs.“We have a wonderful representation of both men and women at different stages of their careers,” Latini said. “Many of them were touched by a personal experience of caring for a loved one or somebody in the community that inspired them to advance their careers.”This year’s winter scholarship recipients include Caregivers from across the country who plan to use their awards to pursue education and training in high-need care fields. Below are those associated with Griswold offices nationwide:<ul><li>Aries J. (San Antonio, Texas) — pursuing board-certified behavior analyst coursework.</li><li>Ayris W. (Gwynn Oak, Maryland) — pursuing certified nursing assistant/high school diploma pathway.</li><li>Elias A. (Washington, D.C.) — pursuing certified nursing assistant training.</li><li>Ester C. (Plano, Texas) — pursuing advanced geriatric care education.</li><li>Eturnity S. (San Antonio, Texas) — pursuing physical therapist assistant program.</li><li>Garine "Gigi" G. (Atlanta, Georgia) — pursuing registered nurse degree.</li><li>Grace M. (Greensburg, Pennsylvania) — pursuing bachelor's degree in gerontology and aging services.</li><li>Joycy B. (Baltimore, Maryland) — pursuing registered nurse degree.</li><li>Kawana S. (Camden County, New Jersey) — pursuing Master of Science in Nursing.</li><li>Nadine C. (Camden County, New Jersey) — pursuing licensed practical nurse degree.</li><li>Paulina P. (Plano, Texas) — pursuing certified nursing assistant certification.</li><li>Rachel C. (Honolulu, Hawaii) — pursuing Master of Social Work.</li><li>Shachana M. (Philadelphia, Pennsylvania) — pursuing continuing education in nursing/care.</li><li>Symone B. (Cleveland, Ohio) — pursuing registered nurse degree.</li><li>Vilma F. (Montgomery County, Maryland) — pursuing certified medical assistant and Child Development Associate credential.</li></ul>Latini emphasized that the scholarship program is rooted in the values of Griswold’s founder — and in the belief that Caregiver education strengthens families and communities.“Dr. Jean Griswold believed in continuing one’s education throughout one’s life,” Latini said. “She herself got a PhD later in life and was always encouraging staff to advance in their careers. We feel strongly that we are continuing her legacy by providing scholarships for Caregivers. We really feel we are living out her legacy with this scholarship program.”The program also reflects the urgent workforce needs facing health care today, especially in nursing and direct care roles.“In the health care field, there is a strain and a need for people to enter the nursing field in particular,” Latini said. “We see the pipeline as a direct line to the nursing fields. There is a lot going on right now, and we know that these frontline workers are essential to our communities.”The Jean Griswold Foundation surpassed a major milestone in annual scholarship support last year, a benchmark it aims to reach again in 2026.“In 2025, we gave away over $100,000 in scholarships total,” Latini said. “It is our goal to give away the same amount in the next year. Since we started in 2022, we’ve given 135 scholarships, and that totals over $300,000 awarded overall.”Applications for the Summer 2026 scholarship cycle opened Feb. 1 and close on March 31, 2026.

<h2>Home for the Holidays: How Griswold Helps Families Stay Connected and Cared For During the Most Important Time of Year</h2>With families gathering and adult children returning home, Griswold provides the support, assurance and compassionate care seniors need to safely age in place.The holiday season is often filled with joy, tradition and long-awaited time with loved ones. But for many families, it also becomes the moment they realize a parent or aging relative needs more support at home. As adult children return for the holiday season after months away, changes in mobility, mood, hygiene or daily functioning can become more visible. And according to&nbsp;<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/ron-mentzer-a000aab6">Ron Mentzer</a>, operations manager for&nbsp;<a href="https://www.griswoldcare.com/">Griswold Home Care</a> for&nbsp;<a href="https://www.griswoldcare.com/cumberland-county-nj/">Cumberland County</a>,&nbsp;<a href="https://www.griswoldcare.com/philadelphia-center-city/">Philadelphia Center City</a>,&nbsp;<a href="https://www.griswoldcare.com/blair-county/">Blair County</a> and&nbsp;<a href="https://www.griswoldcare.com/northern-vermont/">Northern Vermont</a>, that’s exactly why this time of year is one of the most important and busiest for home care agencies.“You have families coming home to visit mom and dad. If they aren’t seeing them regularly, they may see a decline that wasn’t there maybe six months ago,” Mentzer said. “They see a need because mom and dad aren’t raising their hands themselves to ask for help.”For&nbsp;<a href="https://griswoldhomecarefranchise.com/">Griswold</a>, supporting families during the holidays is about more than providing care. It’s about restoring roles, preserving dignity and helping loved ones enjoy meaningful time together.<h2>Rooted in Service: A Personal Mission</h2>Mentzer’s commitment to compassionate care began long before he joined Griswold. “My mother worked in a retirement community, and I saw her model gifts of service,” he said. “She cared for people for a living, and then came home and cared for our family through end of life for her own parents and my father’s parents.”That experience shaped his philosophy, especially in his support for Caregivers themselves.“I saw how my mom served everyone else but didn’t always take the time to care for herself,” he said. “It’s very important for me that all of our employees know they must care for themselves first. The people who work in home care were born with that gift of service, and that’s really part of my why.”Although his background is in operations management for major telecommunications companies like DIRECTV, Comcast and Amazon, Mentzer says he was drawn to Griswold specifically because the work felt meaningful.“This is a different field for me, but it is mission-driven in nature, which pulls on my heart and aligns well with my upbringing.”Today, he helps oversee operations for four&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/griswold">Griswold</a> locations owned by a close friend, creating systems that streamline and scale care while preserving the human connection at the center of the brand.<h2>When Families Notice Their Loved One Needs Support</h2>For many families, the holidays are the first time they’re truly able to assess how an aging parent is doing day-to-day. That’s why Griswold sees a seasonal spike in inquiries each November and December.“When people come home for Thanksgiving or Christmas, that’s often when they notice changes — and we receive a lot of phone calls as a result,” Mentzer said. “Our goal is to bring assurance not just to the client, but to the siblings, spouses and children worried about them.”Often, seniors don’t ask for help themselves. “People want to remain as independent as possible — that’s what everyone wants at the end of the day,” Mentzer said.&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/griswold/how-griswold-empowers-families-and-franchisees-during-national-home-care-hospice-month-2730755#featured">That’s where Griswold steps in</a> to bridge the gap between independence and safety, offering support that feels natural, respectful and dignified.<h2>Restoring Family Roles: “Be the Child Not the Caregiver”</h2>One of the biggest emotional challenges families face is balancing Caregiving with simply being family.&nbsp;“Sometimes it’s hard when you’re the Caregiver&nbsp;and the family member,” Mentzer said. “We want you to be the daughter without also being the Caregiver. We provide that support so the family member can be the family member.”That relief can transform a holiday experience. Instead of managing medication reminders or worrying about falls, families can focus on connection, memories and quality time.“Just like with my mom, I saw how Caregiving takes a toll over time,” Mentzer said. “If we can come in and provide professional, concierge, white-glove assistance, we can help families experience the holiday season the way it should be — together.”<h2>The Three Layers of Griswold’s Holiday Care</h2>Mentzer describes Griswold’s services in three interconnected categories, all of which tend to play a major role during the holidays.<ol><li>Homemaking Services:&nbsp;Preparing holiday meals, tidying up, doing laundry and helping with small tasks can make a big difference in a senior’s comfort and safety.</li><li>Companionship:&nbsp;Many older adults see their social circles shrink, especially in winter. “Having someone to correspond with regularly means a lot to a senior citizen,” Mentzer said. Companionship also includes escorting clients to doctor appointments, the grocery store or even holiday events.</li><li>Personal Care:&nbsp;Bathing, grooming, hygiene and other activities of daily living often become more challenging and more noticeable during holiday visits. Griswold provides dignified support to help seniors feel like themselves.</li></ol>“Griswold’s approach to everything is relational,” Mentzer said. “We don’t take it for granted when someone allows us to come into their home. We want to bring assurance to the client, the family and the community.”<h2>When Griswold&nbsp;Is the Family</h2>Not every senior has family nearby. Many have adult children living across the country or even across the world.“Some people don’t have family local. The kids may have moved away. We have one client whose daughter lives in Europe, so we really are the family,” Mentzer said.And sometimes, the most meaningful moments of the season come from Griswold Caregivers noticing a need and stepping in.“We had a veteran over Thanksgiving who lives alone,” Mentzer said. “One of our Caregivers asked if she could move her weekly meeting to Thursday so he wouldn’t be alone on Thanksgiving. She saw that need and wanted to be there for him. We want to be the difference maker in somebody’s life. If you can make a difference in one individual’s day, that’s what it’s all about. We want to help people age in place with dignity. At the end of the day, that’s what everyone wants — to remain as independent as possible, supported by people who care.”For more information on Griswold’s in-home care services or to explore care options for the new year, visit&nbsp;<a href="http://griswoldcare.com">GriswoldCare.com</a>.

BLUE BELL, PA. —&nbsp;<a href="https://www.griswoldcare.com/">Griswold</a>, one of the nation’s leading in-home care franchises with a 43-year legacy, is closing out 2025 on a high note after achieving record growth across franchise development, systemwide performance and brand recognition. The milestone year positions the brand for even greater momentum in 2026 as&nbsp;<a href="https://griswoldhomecarefranchise.com/">Griswold</a> continues to expand thoughtfully while investing in innovation that helps older adults safely age in place.“This year was spectacular for Griswold — we hit every goal across the board,” said CEO&nbsp;<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/michael-slupecki-08b2288">Michael Slupecki</a>. “Our franchisee royalty growth was right there at double digits. We signed 21 franchise agreements and opened 16 locations, and our five company-owned locations all delivered spectacular year-over-year growth. It’s been a great year.”Throughout 2025, Griswold expanded into 13 states. North Carolina led the way with four new franchise awards, while additional openings across secondary and tertiary markets reinforced Griswold’s belief that the right owners can thrive anywhere.“The aging population is really happening everywhere,” Slupecki said. “Because this is a people business, it’s about finding the right partners with the right mission and values. When you do that, they can be successful wherever they are, and we’re seeing tremendous performance across the system.”In addition to expansion, Griswold earned more external recognition in 2025 than any year in its history, including three top honors from&nbsp;<a href="https://franchisebusinessreview.com/top-franchises/griswold-home-care/#brand_awards_module">Franchise Business Review: Top Franchise, Top Recession-Resistant Franchise and Top Franchise Culture</a>. The home office team was also recognized for the fourth consecutive year by&nbsp;<a href="https://sponsored.inquirer.com/top-workplaces-2025-ranked/">the Philadelphia Inquirer as a Top Workplace</a>.“We’re not just hitting our internal goals; we’re being recognized externally,” Slupecki said. “Prospective franchisees come into Discovery Day already having done their validation. They’ve spoken to existing owners about our culture, our mission and our support. It’s a great blend of culture and being able to make money, and that gives people confidence to step away from a 9-to-5 and invest in a Griswold franchise.”A key driver of Griswold’s long-term growth strategy in 2025 was continued investment in tech. While not a health care provider, the brand increasingly operates with a health care mindset — using technology tools that help monitor client well-being, identify early signs of decline and reduce unnecessary hospitalizations.“We think like a health care company,” Slupecki said. “By leveraging technology and data, we’re raising our game and differentiating ourselves. Our goal is to become the provider of choice for families by keeping clients safe, healthy and in their homes longer.”Looking ahead to 2026, Griswold aims to sign approximately 23 new franchise locations, with target markets including Utah, Wisconsin and Alabama.“We don’t want to sell a lot of locations and do it poorly,” Slupecki said. “We want 100% of the people who trust their investment with us to succeed. Holding ourselves to higher standards allows us to provide the support franchisees need to win. We’re in a great position to take the success of 2025 and do it even better. If we can grow faster, open more successful locations and roll out technology that truly differentiates our franchisees, that’s a win across the board.”ABOUT GRISWOLDWith over 200 locations across 30 states, Griswold is one of the country’s top home care companies, providing and referring professional, compassionate Caregivers around the clock.
