Looking for an activity for your group? Would you like to assist our staff with a fun, therapeutic recreation activity with our senior residents? Waveny LifeCare Network provides residential care for seniors in long term skilled nursing, memory care and independent living, based in New Canaan. This opportunity will suit those with a warm and outgoing personality and bring much joy to all involved!
Group activities can be tailored to your interests and talents.
Perhaps you would like to join us for an afternoon Birthday party? Decorate and set up the room, help pass out refreshments and socialize with residents?
Perhaps you would like to come one evening at 6pm and host a "Paint and sip" activity serving sparkling apple juice and then sitting alongside residents to paint a picture?
Perhaps you would like to join us to play an active game of balloon volleyball?
We also welcome groups interested in beautifying the grounds by working on our raised beds and planting annuals.
To discuss ideas please contact Stella Clarke, Exec Dir Community Engagement and Volunteering. I'm here to support and facilitate your group experience! 203 594 5334.

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.
