Inspired by their experiences and their shared business mindset, the duo decided to take action. This February, they officially opened Griswold in Greensburg, Pennsylvania, offering essential home care services to families in need. With her background in nursing and her husband’s expertise in business, Caitlin recognized that Griswold provides the ideal combination of structure, support and community focus. Now, she’s on a mission to make high-quality, compassionate care accessible to seniors in Western Pennsylvania. Caitlin Kelley started her career in nursing and later transitioned into remote nursing, working for a data analytics company. Her husband has a doctorate in business, and they’ve always had an entrepreneurial mindset. They started looking into home care after seeing the difficulties both of their parents faced caring for their own parents. That experience really opened their eyes to the need for quality, reliable home care. When they found Griswold, they knew it was the right fit. Caitlin and her husband experimented with different business ventures before deciding to become franchisees. They considered starting a home care company from scratch, but ultimately, they realized that the support and guidance from a franchise would be invaluable. Griswold gave them a proven model to follow, along with the resources they needed to get started successfully. A few things really stood out to Caitlin when she was researching Griswold. The story of Jean Griswold and how the company started was incredibly inspiring. The company’s strong foundation in compassionate care aligned with what they were looking for. The team at Griswold was also a major factor in Caitlin’s decision. Everyone she met was amazing, and their level of support really made a difference. Business-wise, their territory was also a great fit, and Griswold’s marketing and community-focused approach sealed the deal for them. Caitlin hopes to achieve several things with her business. Right now, they are the only Griswold franchise on the western half of Pennsylvania, so their goal is to become a key resource for families in the area. They want to be involved in local events and truly integrate into the community. In the long term, they’re looking to expand beyond their initial territory and bring Griswold’s services to even more families. Caitlin wants people to know that home care gives people the ability to remain in their homes while allowing their children and families to focus on being loved ones, not just caregivers. Caitlin advises others thinking about becoming a franchise owner to go with their gut. After interviewing multiple franchises, Griswold quickly rose to the top of their list. It was still a huge investment and a big life change, but they trusted their instincts, and they’re so thankful and excited about this decision. ## Entities - 1851 Franchise (publication) - franchise expansion (topic) - Senior Care (sector) - senior care (topic) - home care services (topic) - Griswold (company) - Caitlin Kelley (person) - Ryan Kelley (person) - Greensburg, Pennsylvania (location) --- Originally reported by 1851 Franchise (https://1851franchise.com/registered-nurse-signs-on-to-bring-griswolds-compassionate-home-care-to-greensburg-pennsylvania-2728624).
