The past year was characterized by significant achievements influencing the delivery of the highest quality of care at UPMC Hamot — and securing our role as the leading provider in our area. Underlying these achievements is the vision of our leadership, their ability to anticipate and respond to changing community health care needs. These achievements are also the product of the unflagging commitment and generosity of Hamot Health Foundation supporters, people who embrace the challenge of advancing our mission.

Like seasons in the year, philanthropy supporting Hamot Health Foundation moves in a circle. Regardless of the project at hand, a short line can be drawn back to those who will reap the rewards when it reaches fruition: the people of our community. This is what completes the circle.

This report reviews the highlights of a year of giving — at the center of which are generous people like you.

Sincerely,

Ann M. Tredway, president and chief development officer, Hamot Health Foundation

SUMMER Next Generation FundThree years after its creation, the Next Generation Fund continues to be remarkably successful in creating awareness and providing opportunities for regional youth to explore careers in health care. Last summer, two area high school students used fund scholarships to participate in sophisticated health care career development programs. Caden Gilson, of Ft. LeBoeuf High School, attended the four-week Health Career Scholars Academy at the University of Pittsburgh where he attended lectures, shadowed physicians, and learned about current topics and issues in health care. “I had the best experience at Magee-Womens Hospital of UPMC,” said Caden. “Not only did I experience what it was like to be an interventional radiologist, I also learned about the more personal side of being a doctor, the side that requires compassion and empathy. This month was life changing.”

The Next Generation Fund also enabled Daniel Macaluso, of Cathedral Preparatory School, to spend 10 days at American University in Washington, D.C., as part of the National Youth Leadership Forum on Medicine. He interacted with physicians, met with patients, and explored life as a medical

resident during the program. He also participated in simulations and activities focused on medical career options, clinical practice, and

contemporary ethical and legal issues in the health care profession. “Before going, I wasn’t sure that a career in medicine was for me,”

said Daniel. “Now I know it is, and I’d like to thank Hamot Health Foundation for this wonderful opportunity.”

Since its inception six years ago, the Health Career Explorers Camp at Mercyhurst North East has enabled more than 500 culturally diverse middle and high school students from Erie to explore health care careers. This year, an additional 50 students experienced hands-on learning at the one-week camp, thanks to the Foundation’s support. Mercyhurst faculty members and community professionals introduced participating students to health occupations such as respiratory therapy, medical lab technology, nursing, physical therapy, occupational therapy, and EMT/paramedic medicine. “Students find that health care offers opportunities in a wide variety of career paths, that they can take progressive steps suited to their particular interests and skills,” says Linda Colvin Rhodes, EdD, director of the Hirtzel Institute on Health Education and Aging at Mercyhurst University. “We show them career options that offer the opportunity to reach their individual potential … to provide motivation to reach their goals.”

Students were given hands-on trials with patient simulation models and lab equipment that parallel actual working devices and environments. Students are treated as potential professionals throughout the week, each receiving personal scrubs and a stethoscope at the outset. “You see a change in them when they receive these items,” says Rhodes, “They become aware that this is possible. You see their confidence begin to grow.”

The Next Generation Fund also helped to sponsor EmergyCare’s inaugural Camp EMS at Allegheny College this past year. Over the six-day career development program, 28 regional high school students took part in lifesaving stabilization and resuscitation drills, along with interactive lectures, career counseling, and a visit from a LifeStar helicopter. Upon graduation, each attendee was certified in CPR and prepared to take additional EMT courses.

Eight students went on to enroll in subsequent training, and 10 engaged in ride-alongs to further their familiarity with the profession. “Hamot Health Foundation’s sponsorship ensures that the camp is affordable for students and that there are no economic barriers to attending,” said EmergyCare’s Director of Development, Jennifer Farrar. “For many, it’s the first step on the path to a rewarding career in health care.” Hamot Health Foundation will again sponsor the event this year.

Pediatric Care UnitA tenet of the UPMC Hamot Women’s Hospital is to bring the entire family into the circle of care — to make parents, children, and siblings an integral part of the therapeutic and healing process. In keeping with this philosophy, the Pediatric Care Unit has been integrated into the Women’s Hospital, a $700,000 undertaking that was made possible in large part by gifts provided through Hamot Health Foundation. The new unit is now a resource for medical, surgical, orthopaedic, urology, and trauma services for infants, children, and adolescents. Pediatric patients and their families are now united in an environment that ensures comfort, confidence, and security — and facilitates optimal outcomes.

“The integration of pediatrics fulfills our vision of having all of our maternal and child health services together in one place,” said Debbie Burbules, president of the UPMC Hamot Women’s Hospital. “It’s a vision that could not have been realized without the support of the Foundation. Their generosity is ensuring our pediatric patients and families a warm and welcoming environment that enhances their care.”

2013–14 Corporator Campaign: UPMC Hamot Patient Simulation LabSince it was introduced at UPMC Hamot in 2005, patient simulation technology has become an indispensible tool for developing basic and advanced clinical skills. The Patient Simulation Lab, which moved to the fifth floor of the UPMC Hamot Women’s Hospital in 2011, is now a strategic resource for nurse orientation, emergency resident skills training, obstetrics and neonatal adverse events drills, medical-surgical nurse training, and sexual assault training.

This year, thanks to the generosity of the Hamot Health Foundation Board of Corporators, UPMC Hamot purchased a new Adult HAL® simulator manufactured by Gaumard® Scientific. The new technology complements other simulation equipment in the lab including Newborn HAL®, Premie HAL®, and NOELLE®. “The purchase of Adult HAL was made possible exclusively with Corporator donations amounting to $57,000,” said Nell Nipper, RNC, nurse educator at the UPMC Hamot Women’s Hospital. “It’s absolutely vital to have this equipment. The simulator provides training experience that affects both individuals and care teams. It ensures standardized skill levels, knowledge, and proficiencies that simply can’t be achieved in any other way.”

Simulation training is directly linked to the quality of patient care at UPMC Hamot. It optimizes patient safety by preparing providers for a wide range of patient variables and quantifies individual and team performance. “We’re taking safety, teamwork, and quality to a new level with this sophisticated equipment,” says Nipper. “And having it available here also attracts high-level candidates for employment. Philanthropy has elevated our lab to a level surpassing any other in the region … we’re all excited about what’s to come.”

“BY CONTRIBUTING TO THIS CAMPAIGN, OUR CORPORATORS

REALIZE THAT THEY ARE SUPPORTING TECHNOLOGY THAT SAVES

THE LIVES OF PEOPLE RIGHT HERE IN THEIR OWN COMMUNITY.”

Extending vital services throughout the region: Parkinson PartnersNorthwest Pennsylvania has a high incidence of Parkinson’s disease and people with Parkinson’s-related disorders. Parkinson Partners is dedicated to encouraging, educating, and supporting these patients and their caregivers as they cope with the challenges of the disease. In 2012, Parkinson Partners of Northwest Pennsylvania celebrated its 20th anniversary. The local chapter was founded in 1992 by five couples to encourage, educate, and support those affected with the disease. The group now has a mailing list of over 675 people and 350 active members. Meetings are held the fourth Sunday of every month and feature a variety of speakers, support opportunities, and social activities.

Foundation funding this year is enabling a care coordinator to be employed through Parkinson Partners who will conduct a clinic for people in the community suffering from Parkinson’s

disease and Parkinson’s-related disorders. The goal is to establish benchmarks and identify associated problems such as depression, obsessive-compulsive disorder, and related emotional and behavioral health issues. “We value Parkinson Partners for the support it provides patients and families, along with special projects it conducts such as the annual clinic,” said neurologist James DeMatteis, MD, of UPMC Northshore Neurology. “The philanthropic support that we receive through Hamot Health Foundation is vital to the well-being of our patients. It raises our level of care.”

Guiding women to resources for care: Health navigatorThe health navigator for the UPMC Hamot Health Connection was created in 2012 through funding provided by Hamot Health Foundation. The navigator’s mission is to steer women through the UPMC Hamot network and secure referrals to appropriate resources for health care and information. “Many women don’t know exactly what they need or where to turn for services or assistance,” says Colleen Wallace, RN, BSN, the program’s health navigator for the past three years. “It’s rewarding to guide them to resources, and see them get on a path that can improve their health and quality of life.”

Over the past two years, the program has substantially increased awareness and utilization of UPMC Hamot women’s health services in the region. Wallace has expanded the role to include community assessment, outreach, and education, and new programs have been added addressing topics such as menopause, osteoporosis, stress management, childbirth education for ESL (English as a second language) women, babysitting, and mother-and-daughter classes. The Stork Support program, founded by the executive team to provide education and counseling to expectant women, is also part of the health navigator’s responsibility. “The health

navigator ensures that women are getting the best information in the most efficient ways,” said Lucia Conti, director of community education and outreach at UPMC Hamot, “and it also reinforces our role as the region’s leading women’s health experts.”

Ongoing education and career developmentThe Foundation remains a vital resource for nursing career development by annually awarding scholarships to nursing students and individuals aspiring to attend nursing school. These scholarships are awarded based upon financial need and are crucial in defraying the costs of tuition, paying for books, expenses, and reducing loan amounts. Annual nursing scholarship excellence awards, named for their donors, are also funded through the Foundation and the UPMC Hamot Aid Society. “Philanthropy is essential in the development of nursing at UPMC Hamot,” said Jean Bulmer, DNP, RN-BC, director of organizational development and training. “These funds help aspiring nurses realize their dreams, and also increase the percentage of staff with bachelor’s and higher degrees. Because of the critical connection between nursing, patient satisfaction, and improved outcomes, philanthropy in this arena directly affects quality care at UPMC Hamot.”

Memorializing our loved ones: Brighten the NightGreat Lakes Hospice ensures dignity, comfort, and respect for the terminally ill in our community. In turn, Brighten the Night is the signature event that supports this service by honoring friends or loved ones, and memorializing the lives of those who have passed, with an awe-inspiring holiday ceremony. The third annual event was attended by approximately 200 people and was chaired by Joy Sherred.

Three thousand lights adorned the 20-foot evergreen tree, donated by the UPMC Hamot Women’s Hospital President Debbie Burbules and family. White lights served as a memoriam for the deceased, and purple lights signified an honorarium. “Brighten the Night brings families, loved ones, and friends together in a truly beautiful and moving ceremony,” said Hamot Health Foundation Development Officer Kelly Reams. “It’s a commemoration and a celebration that illuminates the night and the spirit.”

Great Lakes Hospice touches the lives of approximately 400 people and their families and loved ones each year. The hospice team includes physicians, registered nurses, medical social workers, clinical pharmacologists, bereavement counselors, dietitians, home health aides, clergy, physical/occupational/speech therapists, and volunteers. Their mission is to ensure quality care at the end of life. Services include medication management, education, family involvement, and access to medical equipment and supplies. In 2012, the group celebrated its 20th anniversary. “Brighten the Night funds the purchase of care items that directly benefit our patients and the quality of their lives,” said LuAnne MacIsaac, executive director. “It’s an uplifting event that shares Great Lakes Hospice with the community,” said Hospice Program Manager Heather McLaughlin.

“Brighten the Night provides peace and comfort to the grieving, and increases

awareness of our services among people who can

benefit from them.”

Recognizing our deserving nursesHamot Health Foundation’s 4th Annual Gala celebrated UPMC Hamot’s corps of nurses — more than 775 people distinguished by overwhelming commitment to their professions and dedication to their patients. Guest speaker Nathan M. Moore, MD, of Heritage Primary Care, delivered remarks, providing unique insight into the role of nursing from the perspective of physicians. Dr. Moore described the nursing staff as “not just another group of caregivers, but the backbone of our backbone, the core within the core, the care within the care that is all things UPMC Hamot.” More than half of the nursing staff holds bachelor’s degrees or higher, and approximately one in three has at least 25 years

of experience in the profession. Proceeds from the gala were applied to urgent health care needs, a fitting gift that will have an

ongoing effect on patient lives, just like the incredible staff of UPMC Hamot nurses. Chief Nursing and Quality Officer Jim Donnelly offered

a profound testament to the value of these cherished people. “During the most significant moments in my life, a nurse has been at my side. The

births of my sons represent the greatest joys in my life and a nurse was there as I welcomed them into the world. In similar fashion, when I lost my first wife to cancer, a nurse was there to comfort and care for my wife, my family,

and me. These experiences are not unique, and UPMC Hamot nurses distinguish themselves with exceptional commitment, compassion, and clinical expertise. I am proud to be a nurse and, more importantly, a UPMC Hamot nurse.”

Ensuring advanced technologies: Stereotactic head frame and bedside ultrasoundThe Foundation continued to commit to ensuring the availability of the most advanced medical equipment at UPMC Hamot by supporting two vital acquisitions, a stereotactic head frame for neurosurgery, and bedside ultrasound equipment for the Intensive Care Unit. Stereotactic brain surgery uses images of the brain to guide the surgeon to a precise target. This technique, neuronavigation, can entail the use of an external frame attached to a patient’s head that provides reference points to orient the surgeon through the brain’s anatomy. The patient’s head is imaged using CT, MRI, or angiographic equipment to identify the target in relation to the stereotactic frame, and three-dimensional coordinates are provided to guide the surgeon’s probe. Stereotactic neurosurgery is frequently used to perform biopsies of tissue deep within the brain, and also to place electrodes in the deep brain to treat movement disorders such as Parkinson’s disease.

Bedside ultrasound is quickly becoming a preferred method for conducting unscheduled

diagnostic exams on critically ill or unstable patients outside of the traditional radiology suite. At UPMC Hamot, clinicians in the Medical Intensive Care Unit are currently using SonoSite Edge® ultrasound technology to perform bedside imaging, lumbar punctures, and fluid aspirations, and also to place venous and arterial lines. UPMC Hamot is the only area medical center staffing its intensive care units with board-certified critical care specialists, and portable bedside ultrasound is indispensible to providing this level of service.

“Hamot Health Foundation comprises a body of people who want to contribute to our mission, and their help in securing this technology is the coming together of desire and need,” said Chief Nursing and Quality Officer Jim Donnelly.

“This is another case where philanthropy enables us to sustain the highest level of critical care. Great tools, great craftsmen, great outcomes.”

Continuing progress in reaching the underserved: Wayne Primary CareOver the past year, Wayne Primary Care continued to increase accessibility to health care, information, and prevention services for our community’s underserved, breaking down barriers and making inroads to improving the overall health of this segment. The mission of this project is not only to reach underserved children and families, but also to network with area community groups and churches to spread awareness, increase utilization, and coordinate

A YEAR OF GIVING: WINTER

health education programs on issues such as personal hygiene, self-esteem, and prenatal and postnatal care. The Wayne Primary Care staff has also initiated grass roots services for immigrants such as interpreting, ordering and using medications, and administering required immunizations.

Patient visits increased significantly over the past year, and the community room is becoming a focal point for visits from an array of organizations such as Safe Harbor, the Diabetes Association of Erie, All About Smiles, Reading Buddies, and the Second Harvest Food Bank. “We continue to see new patients daily from Emergency Department and hospital referrals,” said Kristen Chandler, DO, of Wayne Primary Care. “Our most substantial growth is coming from large families and refugees relocating to our community.”

UPMC Hamot Champion of Diversity and Inclusion, Kelly Carson, applauds the Foundation for its ongoing support, along with the versatility it displays in meeting a variety of needs. “Our community room was devoid of resources. It needed educational materials — books, games, and other items related to health and self-esteem. To the delight of our kids and counselors, the Foundation came to the rescue and stocked it with some wonderful items. They’re always listening. Their door is always open.”

Fresh produce for those in needWayne School also serves as the distribution site for the Second Harvest Food Bank’s Produce Express service, yet another cause benefiting Erie’s needy that is funded through Hamot Health Foundation. The goal of the service is to provide free fresh produce and other food items for community residents who live below federal poverty guidelines. Qualified individuals receive approximately 40 pounds of food that is distributed by volunteers. When the project was launched in March, approximately 120 families received donated food. Six distributions will be conducted at the Wayne School parking area this year.

“We wanted to really focus on nutrition and provide fresh produce to those who wouldn’t normally have access to it,” said Heather Musacchio, communications manager for Second Harvest. “Produce is very expensive, and it’s hard to get in the winter. Many of these folks don’t have the transportation to get to grocery stores and other markets that have the produce.” Second Harvest annually supplies food to 285 agencies in 11 counties, with the bulk of the food distributed in Erie County.

The Erie-based agency distributed 11.6 million pounds of food between July 2012 and this past June, the largest fiscal year total since the food bank opened in 1982.

Proposed rendering of UPMC Hamot Medical Staff Healing Garden



SPRING

A place for reflection: UPMC Hamot Medical Staff Heal ing GardenThis coming year, the new Suzanne and William Conner Lobby renovation project at UPMC Hamot will transform the face of the medical center like no other improvement in recent history. Not only will it improve access to the hospital for patients, visitors, and staff, but it will also inspire an impression of quality, confidence, and comfort. The caliber of the design and its aesthetic appeal will serve as a reflection of the level of care that can be expected at UPMC Hamot.

An integral part of this renovation will be the UPMC Hamot Medical Staff Healing Garden, an area where the welcoming attributes of the new lobby will be extended outdoors, enabling people to gather among plants and trees to enjoy the peace and solitude of nature. The healing garden will connect to the new lobby physically and visually, serving as a natural counterpart adjacent to the main entry.

Meandering pathways will guide people through the garden courtyard and various portions of the landscape. Pergolas and private seating areas will be available to provide a sense of enclosure and seclusion, permitting visitors to relax and pursue private thoughts or conversation. “The collaboration

between hospital administration, community partners, and our health care providers has set UPMC Hamot apart in the community, and this project is reflective of this partnership,” said Dr. Peter Depowski, vice president of the medical staff. UPMC Hamot’s Chief Medical Officer, Dr. Richard Long, echoed that sentiment, saying,

“The new lobby and healing garden will make a statement that reinforces UPMC Hamot’s quality of care and the excellence of our medical staff.”

Appreciation: Physicians and volunteers (HAS)The effect of UPMC Hamot providers on our patients is profound, and many express their gratitude by making donations to the Foundation through the annual Doctors’ Day celebration and our Guardian Angel program. Last year, 120 patients contributed $6,700, and 70 physicians were honored through the Guardian Angel program. Since its inception, 900 donors have given approximately $69,000 in honor of their UPMC Hamot caregivers.

The UPMC Hamot Aid Society celebrated 108 years of service this year. In addition to the invaluable volunteer service hours that members give to UPMC Hamot, the society also engages in vital fund-raising efforts supporting the Medical Education Assistance Fund that grants interest-free loans to students to help pay tuition for graduate or undergraduate course work, and other vital programs such as the UPMC Hamot for Women Lecture Series. The society is also a monumental force in its support of capital improvements at UPMC Hamot, raising approximately $750,000 for the Suzanne and William Conner Lobby.

Ongoing progress in employee education: Research DaysUPMC Hamot Research Days is an annual event sponsored by Hamot Health Foundation and directed by Justine Schober, MD, and Tim Cooney, manager of basic science research, that showcases research and quality improvement studies implemented by fellows, residents, nurses,

faculty, and medical students. Keynote speakers present their findings and conclusions to medical center staff and students, and attendees from various disciplines exchange ideas, fostering inter- institutional learning. “The primary educational focus of Research Days is to impart requisite presentation skills and knowledge to our staff and students,” said Tim Cooney. “Because our residents and nurses routinely present studies at national meetings, carrying the UPMC Hamot banner as they do, the importance of this event can’t be overemphasized. We’re indebted to the Foundation. Without their assistance, this educational endeavor would not be possible.”
