We have openings for regular volunteers to help serve Dinner 6-7.15pm almost any evening of the week. Part of the role is to serve dinner under direction of Waveny Staff and part of the role is to develop a social relationship with our long term residents who enjoy the chance to make new friends. We welcome team members who would like to serve on an occasional basis but would like to find a regular volunteer for Tuesday evenings. Junior volunteers, 8 years and older welcome accompanied by a parent.
Training and supervision provided. Learn about food service in a long term care and skilled nursing environment.

Mission Statement
Committed to our community for over 50 years as a trusted nonprofit, Waveny LifeCare Network (Waveny) has sought to provide the highest quality of care since 1975. Our full spectrum of care anticipates your every need. From at-home rehabilitation to long-term therapy and nursing care, hospice and everything in between, Waveny provides award-winning personalized solutions for patients of all ages. Our community outreach includes school nursing, community health screenings, health education and wellness programs. Over the past 110 years Visiting Nurse and Hospice of Fairfield County has helped thousands of individuals, and their loved ones cope with terminal illness with comfort, peace and dignity. Joining forces with Waveny in 2021 VNHFC enabled the Waveny volunteer program to expand to offer opportunities at the New Canaan Thrift Shop and as part of the hospice and bereavement support volunteer team.

As a nonprofit organization, we are a mission-based provider of healthcare, housing and support services to approximately 2,400 people every year. Waveny relies on our talented staff and hundreds of volunteers to deliver the highest quality of person-centered care every day.
