Meet Your Team
Jessica Burke
Owner
I am Jessica Burke. My husband Jason and I are the owners of Griswold Home Care for East Louisville. We are excited to bring Griswold’s legacy of over 40 years of providing award winning services to families here in Kentucky.
I grew up in Eastern Kentucky and after living in various places for school and work, in 2019 we settled down in Shelbyville. My mom moved in with us in 2024, and my brother moved in and started college in 2025. We all love animals, and we stay busy with our seven dogs, three cats, eight hens, and various fish. In my free time, I enjoy being outdoors, reading, and scuba diving.
I am a proud graduate of the University of Kentucky, the first person in my family to earn a college degree. I then graduated from Notre Dame Law School, and have had the honor of spending my career in a variety of roles including working in Kentucky government, serving on government and civic boards and commissions, and representing clients including multiple healthcare companies, small businesses, and individuals.
The opening of Griswold Home Care for East Louisville fills a gap we have personally experienced multiple times throughout the years. My husband’s mom had a prolonged illness that ended in the excellent care of local hospice services. We became the primary advocates for a family member with intellectual disabilities who required specialized services after he became ill. My mom experienced multiple health challenges and moved in with us, bringing a whole new learning experience. We know firsthand how valuable it is to have a trusted partner that can help navigate questions, systems, and needs.
We are excited and privileged to serve you and our community.

Jean’s Story
In 1982, Dr. Jean Griswold founded our company at her dining room table in a small suburb of Philadelphia. She found out that an elderly woman in her community had died of complications because she had no support system for care. Jean felt this was an easily preventable tragedy and was driven to find a solution by pairing Caregivers with those who could not thrive in their homes alone. She was a true visionary, establishing one of the first and most successful non-medical home care organizations in the country, despite being wheelchair-bound due to Multiple Sclerosis. Over 40 years later, her legacy lives on nationwide.
Scholarship
Where would we be without Caregivers? Their selflessness is astounding, yet they are often overlooked and underappreciated. The Jean Griswold Foundation is dedicated to supporting Caregivers, the backbone of the care industry. We provide educational scholarships so Care Professionals can further their training, enhance their skills, elevate their careers, and better assist the people they serve.
