Tammy Fairchild-Varty & Jacque Varty
Owners/Directors
Welcome! We’re Tammy Fairchild-Varty and Jacque Varty, and we are the independent owners and operators of Griswold Home Care for Greenville & Spartanburg. We know it can feel impossible to find the right person to take care of a loved one. We each come from different backgrounds, but we share a passion for vetting qualified Caregivers to help people live safely and independently at home. We both work actively in our business on a daily basis and take great pride in providing you with the services you need to remain in the place that you love.
Jacque: I served in a government health district, where I worked closely with government agencies to ensure safe housing environments for clients. My role was often as a mediator on behalf of my clients, and I discovered a passion for helping people feel safe at home. I turned that for helping people live safely and independently toward the field of senior healthcare.
Tammy: Holding a graduate degree in Human Donation Science and a Master’s Degree in Public Health. I’ve worked with families facing end-of-life decisions, and it gave me the ability to see clearly in very difficult situations. It also fueled my desire to improve the quality of life for those in need. When we heard about Griswold Home Care, Jacque and I knew their vision aligned with ours, and Griswold Home Care became our mutual platform for helping seniors and disabled adults maintain their independence and dignity.
We welcome the opportunity to assist you or a loved one in choosing the right options for you at home, whether home is your house, a community, or a facility.
In Your Community
We’re in This Together
Our team is dedicated to improving the well-being of our community through serving those who need assistance to live where they love. We are active in the neighborhood, so you’ll see us around town at events, participating in associations and meetings, and supporting local organizations inside and outside the care industry. We firmly believe in our ability to create a happier and healthier place to live through the connections we make with the people in 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.
