ANNUAL REPORT
Chairman’s Letter
Dear Friends:
Thank you for your ongoing support of Waveny
Care Network throughout an incredibly exciting
year. From employing the leadership of an
exceptional new chief executive officer, to our
significant growth in community-based services
and home healthcare, 2012 saw the beginnings of
many pivotal transitions for our organization.
financial assistance program while hitting the
million dollar mark since the event’s inception.
Guided always by our mission to provide a
comprehensive continuum of healthcare and the
highest quality of compassionate person-centered
care, we began implementation of a strategic
plan to help chart the course for Waveny over
the years to come. This included the formation of
a board committee to develop a long-term plan
for New Canaan Inn, and a focused review of our
organization’s branding with the generous assistance
of global advertising firm Saatchi and Saatchi.
Through the generosity of our donors, commitment
of our staff, and dedication of our devoted
volunteers, Waveny continues to thrive. Please
know how much we appreciate and value your
belief in our mission and your commitment to
our organization.
From a financial standpoint, this year was particularly
notable. Backed by more top sponsors than ever
before, our 10th annual Swinging for Seniors event
raised an unprecedented amount of funds for our
Also, given the very attractive state of capital
markets, we refinanced Waveny’s long term
debt and borrowed the funds required to finance
renovations to the second floor of the Care Center.
Most sincerely,
Jay B. Twombly
Chairman, Waveny Care Network
T
his year marked a decade for our Swinging
for Seniors Golf & Tennis Outing, which to
date, has raised over a million dollars – a major
milestone worthy of a celebration!
All proceeds from this annual outing are
directed to Waveny’s financial assistance
program and used to support patients and
residents who cannot afford the full cost of
their care at Waveny Care Center, The Village,
New Canaan Inn and our Adult Day Program.
Our gratitude is extended to golf co-chairs
Judy Bentley, Charlie Parker and James Slattery,
tennis co-chairs Alice Parker and Sharon
Stevenson, and our dedicated raffle coordinator
Julianne Grace. We are tremendously proud
and indebted to our Swinging for Seniors
committee members for their enthusiasm,
steadfast commitment and hard work, and to
our extraordinary event volunteers for helping
to make the day a monumental success.
We also extend our heartfelt thanks to all our
sponsors and supporters.

At this year’s event, we recognized our “Swinging
for Seniors” Golf & Tennis Outing founders and

cost of their care at Waveny.
Honorees included The Barbara Benton Davis
Fund, Fairfield County Community Foundation,
Judy and Dave Bentley, Bentley & Farrell – Dave

“Waveny is unbelievably
fortunate to count each and
every one of you among our
most loyal and devoted friends.
You continue to make a lasting
impact on the quality of life of
those served by Waveny.”
Additionally, five ‘thank you’ boards were placed
throughout the venue to acknowledge 90 long-time
event participants who directly helped to make the
annual fundraiser the success it is today.
We give our sincere thanks to each event sponsor
and supporter for their loyal patronage and
outstanding support of Waveny Care Network.
Annual Appeal
T
his year’s annual appeal focuses on
achieving a vital technology upgrade to
our decade-old digital network infrastructure.
The cornerstone of this project will be the
creation of a virtual environment. By migrating
our four conventional, at-capacity data
servers onto a single virtual server, we will
greatly enhance user convenience, enable
data recovery and resource allocation, and
promote a green environment by increasing
energy efficiency and decreasing our reliance
on hardware.
INCLUDES
Virtual Server
To replace our 9 year-old, at-capacity physical servers
Upgraded Email Platform
To replace our decade-old version of Outlook
Advanced Email Archiving System
Most importantly – and making the need
for reliable, high-performance technology
at Waveny absolutely critical – this virtual
environment will help us to improve our
effectiveness in providing quality care and
facilitate a smooth transition to an Electronic
Medical Record (EMR) system.
To meet and exceed healthcare regulations
Virtual Desktops
To replace outdated desktop computer hardware
Upgraded Microsoft Office Suite
To migrate from Office 2000 to Office 2010
Upgraded OS
To migrate from Windows XP to Windows 7

Our Grantors
C
ollaboration between The Fairfield County
Community Foundation, the donor-advised Barbara
Benton Davis Fund, and the Rangeley Capital Community
Fund at the New Canaan Community Foundation resulted
in a bountiful grant to support the scholarship program for
participants of Waveny’s Adult Day Program who cannot
afford the full cost of day services.
Monies from this grant have enabled many of our longterm participants to continue using our services and
attend the same number of days per week as they have
in the past - especially our veterans. Benefitting just as
much as the participants are family caregivers who can
regain the personal time they need to work, run a family
household or simply relax.
Delivering upon a continuing commitment to offer the
“latest and greatest” in technology to those we serve,
Waveny Care Network recently installed a series of
wireless access points (WAPs) to establish a Wi-Fi network
throughout the 3 Farm Road campus. This comprehensive
installation was made possible by generous funding from
the Jeniam Foundation. Available to all staff, patients,
residents, family members and visitors, Waveny’s campuswide Wi-Fi capabilities enable the use of wireless devices
and convenient access to popular social media platforms
like Facebook, Twitter and Skype to better stay in touch
with friends and family.
Funds received through the MLE Foundation helped to
cover the cost of contemporary television viewing in the
Care Center. In an effort to improve television reception,
viewing and programming choices for our nursing home
residents and skilled nursing patients, Waveny finished a
complete upgrade to its television system.
The New Canaan Community Foundation awarded us
with generous funding along with donor advised monies
from the Rein Advised Fund to finance a complete
upgrade of our existing security using state-of-the-art
equipment throughout the Network. Our goal is to
maintain an open and welcoming atmosphere while
continuing to ensure the safety, security, convenience,
comfort and flexibility of all who depend on us.
Additionally, we would like to thank the New Canaan
Community Foundation and the Berkeley Fund for their
generous grant in support of our organization.
The experience of dining is an important and recurrent
part of our residents’ day, and is greatly influenced by their
environment’s atmosphere. The New Canaan Sewing
Group provided funding to replace existing curtains
with new drapes in our Special Care Unit’s multipurpose dining room, which serves our most physically
and cognitively challenged residents and patients.
Continuing its annual funding of Waveny, the Southwestern
Connecticut Agency on Aging, Inc. provided monies for
a State-sponsored aide position to work with Adult Day
participants with Alzheimer’s disease.
emergency pull-call system by remote control.
These necklace and/or wrist bracelet devices enable
residents to activate the system from any location
within the building to summon immediate assistance.
The WorkPlace, Inc. awarded grant monies that enabled
Waveny to hold a number of training programs
designed to provide job enrichment, hone leadership
skills and facilitate active participation in professional
growth and development. Training programs included
Centered Care for the Person with Dementia: Recognizing
and Responding to Distress, Wound Care Certification and
a Certified Nursing Assistant Leadership program.
Driven by our mission to continue to offer the latest
state-of-the-art equipment available to those we serve,
monies received from the Newcomers Club of New
Canaan were used to purchase a recumbent cross
trainer for our rehabilitation therapy program. This
recumbent bike is a preferred piece of rehabilitation
equipment that helps to ensure safe and effective
treatment of individuals across a wide range of ability
levels.
The Young Women’s League of New Canaan awarded a
grant enabling us to expand our Snoezelen program, which
offers a therapeutic option that focuses directly on the
sensory functions of individuals with dementia and memory
loss. This funding facilitated continued growth in the
frequency of sessions offered, number of participants, and
involvement from our families and volunteers.
We are extremely grateful for a gift awarded to Waveny
from the Rotary Club of New Canaan used to purchase
wireless “Panic Buttons” that activate our existing
First County Bank Foundation awarded us monies
used to purchase laptop computers and software for
our newly launched Home Healthcare Program. Our
Home Healthcare staff made a strategic decision to
utilize electronic medical records from the very start
so that client medical information would be readily
available on a mobile basis. This technology will
continue to assist us in moving forward toward an
Electronic Medical Record environment.
“The generosity
of these charitable
organizations
allows us
to consistently
deliver the highest
quality of care
to all whom
we serve.”

ollowing the success of the past three years’ events, we held our fourth annual mixed-paddle tournament
fundraiser in support of Waveny’s not-for-profit network of residences, programs and services. Doubling
in size since the event’s inception, this year’s event featured 32 teams and 64 players playing at four site
locations. We are absolutely delighted that this event has captured public interest and expanded exponentially
over the past four years. This year we were able to attract local recreational players as well as top ranked APTA
professionals in coming together to Paddle for a Purpose!
This outing’s continued growth and success is due in large part to the efforts made by event committee
members Alice Parker and Sharon Stevenson in securing our paddle sites, player participants, sponsors,
prizes, and food and beverages.

aveny continues its commitment to provide the highest
quality of care for older adults in New Canaan and
the surrounding communities. Reflecting this commitment,
Waveny experienced a 5.5% increase in fiscal 2012 patient
service revenue over the prior year, mainly due to increases in
occupancy in both the Care Center and The Village. Total days
in the Care Center increased by 1,142 and 1,747 in The Village.
During fiscal 2012, the Network launched its Home Healthcare
service, which received its Medicare certification on April 3, 2012.
Home Care sustained an operating deficit of ($445,184), 84%
of the Network’s 2012 operating loss. Operating loss on the
existing units in 2012 was ($85,445) compared to ($602,548) in
fiscal 2011. Home Care is expected to achieve break even by
the end of fiscal 2013.
As a result of both the Federal and State governments’
reimbursement rates failing to keep up with inflation, and
given Waveny Care Center’s mission to serve older adults
without regard to their source of payment, patient and
revenue services were significantly offset ($3,541,902) by the
amount of reimbursement that the Medicare and Medicaid
programs discount their payments to us. Fortunately, the cost
of this uncompensated care is partially offset by the continued
generosity and support from our benefactors: Through the
Annual Appeal, Swinging for Seniors, other grants and
contributions, the Network received a total of $708,000 in
philanthropy in fiscal 2012.
Reflecting our ongoing commitment to ensure quality care
through a skilled and experienced staff, wages and benefits
combined for 68% of our total operating expenses, an
increase of 7.2% over fiscal 2011. Salaries and Benefits

Drugs, Food & Other

Reflecting our continued investment in
high quality care, labor costs accounted

increased $880,120 from fiscal 2011 with $517,962
(59%) of the increase attributable to the new Home Care
initiative. Our “medical supplies, drugs, food, and other”
expense category increased 5.6% over the previous fiscal
year, which was in large part due to increases in the
provider tax, food and fuel costs.
We continue to see dramatic declines in our reliance on
outside nursing services. Outside nursing costs in 2012
were $26,936 compared to $180,063 in fiscal 2011. This
represents our continued commitment to hire and retain the
best and brightest at competitive compensation packages
while maintaining an industry-leading resident to staff ratio.
As of September 30, 2012, the Network’s endowment
holdings were $10,476,800, a 13.2% increase in fiscal 2012.
During fiscal 2012 the Network retired $420,800 in long-term
debt, as of September 30, 2012 the balance of the long-term
debt was $4,955,936. In December 2012, the Network
refinanced its tax-exempt variable bond financing to a ten
year fixed rate tax-exempt bond creating budget certainty
over the remaining term of the debt.
The Network sustained an operating deficit ($530,629)
in fiscal 2012. Once again this was in large part due to
the Home Care start up ($445,184). We expect to return
to operational profitability in fiscal 2013. We continue to
honor our mission to those in our care by providing the
highest quality of care through the most efficient means
possible, while at the same time acting as responsible
stewards of the contributions made to us by our loyal
benefactors.

CEO’s Letter
Dear Friends:
Since joining the Waveny Care Network team at the end of 2012,
I have been extremely impressed by the outstanding support of our
community, commitment of our Board, and dedication of our staff in
helping the many people we are both fortunate and grateful to serve
each day.
Healthcare as we know it is rapidly changing and its shifts and
transitions will have a major impact on all of us. We read about
mergers and acquisitions, bankruptcies and foreclosures and realize
that both State and Federal government reimbursements continue to
diminish for healthcare providers. At the same time the baby boomers
have begun to turn 65 at a rate of 10,000 each day.
As the healthcare world shifts to home and community based
services, Waveny Care Network has responded to meet the
needs of those who require our assistance in non-traditional ways. We now serve many clients in their
homes through Waveny’s home healthcare and geriatric care management, as well as an array of new
companion, homemaker and private duty services. Delivering upon our mission, we will continue to
grow and diversify to meet the needs of our community now and in the future, while maintaining the
quality expected from the Waveny name.
Over the past several months we have achieved 100% occupancy at New Canaan Inn and developed a
healthy waiting list. We have also centralized our admissions department in order to better serve anyone
who may require help or assistance provided throughout Waveny’s continuum of care. Our quality
continues to be outstanding and Waveny Care Center was recently named one of the top nursing homes
in the nation by U.S. News and World Report.
Waveny Care Network is truly a jewel in our community with its comprehensive continuum of care and wide
array of facility, community and outpatient based services. Not only do we have tremendous partnerships and
affiliations with quality programs like Meals on Wheels and Staying Put in New Canaan, but we are fortunate
to count on the service of more than 400 volunteers who are a wonderful support to our organization.
This is truly an exciting time for us and I thank everyone for their generosity, dedication, loyalty, friendship
and continued support.
Most sincerely,
