Letter to the Community

Dear Community Members:

It is hard to believe we have closed the books on another fiscal year! Over the past twelve months, NHF has accomplished some great work and has been privileged to partner with some outstanding individuals and organizations.

In this annual report, we are proud to present a series of “scorecards” that highlight some outcomes of our most visible programs. Recuperative Care, several years in the making, is a program that creates opportunities and provides care for our homeless neighbors. The Pregnant Teen and Parenting Support Program is one that addresses a complex and sensitive issue: recidivism of teen pregnancy. Patient Safety First… A California Partnership for Health is one of NHF’s largest projects to date, and one with some of the most wide-reaching outcomes. And finally, the Healthy Eating Lifestyles Program (HELP) is a collaborative program that continues to have relevancy across the country.

We encourage you to take a look at what our programs are accomplishing. If you are interested in learning more about these programs, you should look at our website or contact us. Part of NHF’s mission is to bring successful programs to other organizations and communities. Once our partnerships find success, we want to share what works.

Year after year, it is a privledge to thank our generous supporters, who make it possible for us to take on innovative projects and serve children, teens, and families in need. Furthermore, our talented and committed community partners expand our capacity and make success a greater possibility.

As we ramp up for the prospects ahead, we remain passionately committed to addressing the most pertinent health care issues and to serving the underserved. It is with your guidance and generosity that we continue on our mission of improving the quality of and access to healthcare for everyone.

Thank you for your ongoing support and we look forward to sharing even more success in the coming year.

Sincerely,

J. Eugene Grigsby, III, PhDPresident and CEO

Measuring Up... on Recuperative Care

It is estimated that there are 78,000 homeless individuals in Los Angeles County and nearly 21,000 in Orange County. The Recuperative Care Program is a viable discharge option for hospitals with homeless patients needing medical oversight.

“The feedback from my staff has been overwhelmingly positive - they say how well run and effective this new incarnation of the recuperative care program is.”

David Esquith, ACM Manager, Medical Social Work

Cedars Sinai Medical Center

“We really love this program! It is such a positive and good outcome for our patients.”

Robyn Miller, Care Management SW Manager,

St. Jude Medical Center

The Los Angeles Recuperative Care Program, in partnership with the Hospital Association of Southern California (HASC) and Ilumination Foundation was re-launched in October 2010 and “re-designed” to mirror the successes of the Orange County Recuperative Care Program. Best practices identified were the following: (1)a “quick and easy” referral process with NHF as the single point of contact; (2) one page electronic referral form; and (3) hospitals being notified “within four business hours” on the status of acceptance or denial into the program.

Hospitals in Los Angeles and Orange Counties often keep a homeless patient up to four extra days or longer due to insufficient appropriate beds. These patients are those who are not sick enough to remain in hospitals, but are too sick for the shelter or streets.

Los Angeles Recuperative Care Program Facility

With the primary goal of reducing inpatient length of stay, emergency department visits and recidivism, the Recuperative Care Program in Los Angeles and Orange County provides the homeless necessary medical oversight where basic needs are met and connection to support services are provided.


In Los Angeles County, 31 hospitals participated in the Los Angeles Recuperative Care Program. Since the re-launch of the Los Angeles Recuperative Care Program in October 2010...

Measuring Up... on Preventing Teen Pregnancy

Teen pregnancy is a key factor in high school performance, attendance and graduation. For more than four years, NHF has been working with the most at risk teens in order to reduce the occurrence of teenage pregnancy, thereby improving the health, well-being and success of teens as they mature.

“I truly enjoyed the program. It has much to offer the students: the support, guidance and preparation they need. It has been a key asset for the Jefferson community.”

Olga Jurado, Psychiatric Social Worker Thomas Jefferson High School

“It’s helpful, especially when you don’t have a lot of programs like this.”

Quote from a new teen mom

Harold Cares about Your Future: Pregnant Teenand Parenting Support Program operates in six Los Angeles Unified School District high schools. To date, NHF has served 391 students, both female and male. The school based program combines individual services, strong linkages to community resources and peer group education sessions to help first time pregnant and parenting teens avoid subsequent pregnancies, utilize appropriate healthcare for self and child, enhance parenting abilities, remain in high school with the goal of graduation/completion, and prepare for employment by learning job search and interview skills. The evaluation tool used to measure the success of the Pregnant and Parenting Teens program follows students during the 10-week program and at 6 month intervals until they graduate the program or until their 18th birthday (should they not graduate high school).

In an effort to combat increasing rates of teen pregnancy, this year NHF launched a new program built on the success and relationships of

Graduation party and conclusion of the fall 2011 program

the Pregnant and Parenting Teen Program. Aimed at preventing teen pregnancy among those girls most at risk for becoming teen parents, Go Harold’s Way: Be a STAR (Successful Teen ActingResponsibly) operated as a pilot in two high schools during the past year. Students, teachers and administrators were excited by the opportunity to engage in a program which meets a real and unmet need for their students.


Over the past year, the Harold Cares about Your Future: Pregnant Teen and Parenting Support Program has accomplished the following...

“They [the students] loved it! Students start asking when the next session will start right after graduation.”

Stephanie Lartelier, Pupil Services and Attendance Counselor

West Adams High School

At the end of the program, 99% of students agreed or strongly agreed that it is important for them to graduate high school.

99%

The program welcomed back 23 students who had previously completed the program and continued to seek support for a second year.

23

Be a STAR served 29 girls during the pilot year of the program.29

The Pregnant Teen and Parenting Support Program has served 116 girls and boys this past year.

116

Of students surveyed 6 months or more following completion of the program, 100% were still in school, graduated from high school or were enrolled in or completed a GED program.

100%

When contacted 6 months after completing the program, less than 10% of students reached had become pregnant again.

Measuring Up... on Patient Safety

Launched in 2010, Patient Safety First (PSF) is a groundbreaking three-year, $6-million collaboration between National Health Foundation, California’s Regional Hospital Associations, and Anthem Blue Cross to improve the consistency and quality of health care for Californians. With nearly 160 hospitals participating across the state, PSF is the largest collaborative focusing on patient safety in the nation.

“The Southern California Patient Safety Collaborative has been remarkably successful in getting the participating hospitals to achieve significant reduction in patient harm through consistent collaborative sharing, resulting in rapid overall improvements.”

Mary Fermazin, M.D., MPA Chief Medical Officer, HSAG-CA

Vice President, Health Policy and Quality Measurement Health Services Advisory Group, Inc.

Across the state, participating hospitals engaged in more than 30 convenings to promote best-practices and share strategies for improving the quality of care and safety of patients.

30

In its first year of implementation, PSF saved approximately 800 lives by working to prevent sepsis-related deaths.

800

Participating hospitals achieved a 41% reduction of Ventilator Acquired Pneumonia towards the goal of a rate of zero.

According to data analysis, over $11 million dollars in cost savings have resulted from the work of PSF.


Measuring Up... on Childhood Obesity

Through NHF’s HOPE (Hospitals Offering Prevention for Everyone) for Health Campaign, the HELP program is in its second year of implementation at seven hospitals in Southern California. Participating hospitals offer patients and community members access to free healthy eating, cooking and physical activity education and support to help them begin to change their lives. The focus of HELP is not to help children lose weight, but instead to inspire families to adopt healthy habits for a lifetime.

At program follow-up (3-6 months after the completion of the program), almost 60% of children reduced their Body Mass Index (BMI).

60%

Since the launch of the campaign, more than 500 children and parents have participated in the HELP program.

500

More than 50% of participants increased their knowledge related to nutrition and fitness at the completion of the HELP program.
