About Us

Conveniently located in New Canaan, Connecticut, Waveny LifeCare Network provides a compassionate continuum of world-class care to serve the changing needs of seniors from all areas. Committed to our community for over 40 years as a trusted nonprofit, Waveny has sought to provide the highest quality of person-centered care since 1975. We proudly offer an array of eldercare choices ranging from residential options and outpatient programs, to community-based services, to meet the varied needs and preferences of older adults and their families.

Like a river, Waveny’s continuum of care flows fluidly within a single organization, without any expensive buy-in fees or long-term commitments. Conceived and planned out of concern for the quality of life for our neighbors, Waveny was built entirely with contributions from the community. We are incorporated as a nonprofit charitable organization and governed by a volunteer non-paid Board of Directors
