The Waveny LifeCare Network in New Canaan, announced the appointment of Patrick Kennedy as director of facilities for the non-profit eldercare organization.
“We are delighted to have Patrick join our management team and know he will further our success in this important role,” said Ray Wilkens, Waveny’s campus administrator. “His seasoned background in facility operations and his commitment to continually raising the bar of excellence higher and higher is a natural fit for our 5-star rated organization.”
Kennedy will manage and oversee the mechanical systems, facility operations and construction projects throughout the healthcare organization’s main campus on Farm Road – a 100,000 square foot operation – as well as at The Inn, Waveny’s independent living community on Oenoke Ridge. He will also chair Waveny’s Safety Committee.
Kennedy brings decades of experience in facility management with expertise in healthcare to his new position, and credits his co-op experience at IBM very early on in his career for grooming his high standards and expectations. A graduate of two separate 2-year technical schools, Kennedy’s strong desire to remain at the forefront of his craft has led him to pursue numerous continuing education opportunities over the years in areas like A/C and electrical work.
