Dear Friends of The Children’s Institute of Pittsburgh, In 1902, a badly injured child needed help and care. The Children’s Institute — then the Memorial Home for Crippled Children — came into being in response to that child’s need, and he not only survived; he thrived and grew into productive adulthood.

More than a century later, that same pattern — need, response and results — still guides our work. We identify a significant community need; then, through The Hospital, The Day School, and Project STAR, we respond with services that use today’s best practices — and we produce results that greatly benefit kids and their families.

Working in an uncertain healthcare environment and a still-fragile economy poses major challenges, but we are able to achieve our mission through careful planning and stewardship — and extraordinary support from individuals and organizations in the communities we serve.

We are enormously grateful to be able to respond to so many important community needs and to be able to produce such amazing results.

Sincerely,

Just ask the Desmore family of New Orleans.

The family had struggled for years with 7-year-old Allison’s Prader-Willi Syndrome and was in crisis when they brought her to Pittsburgh. Dad Alan returned to work while mom Holly and baby Claire, 15 months, stayed at Heasley House, The Children’s Institute’s courtesy facility for families.

Claire’s developmental delays required therapies the family had postponed to come to Pittsburgh — but The Children’s Institute staff knew the postponement wasn’t beneficial, so they arranged treatment. Claire was diagnosed, treatment was initiated — and soon the tot who hadn’t been close to walking was zipping around with her tiny new walker.

Meanwhile, Allie’s treatment team diagnosed her with several serious conditions in addition to her Prader-Willi Syndrome. “No doctor back home had done that, but here they did — and they knew how to help,” says Holly.

Before Allie’s discharge five months later, it was clear that, although she had greatly improved, the family would need help caring for her — so staff partnered with Holly and Alan to advocate vigorously for the care.

That level of family-centered care isn’t accidental — it’s a century-old tradition recently formalized to ensure that every child and family receives services that are expert, collaborative and respectful.

“A lot of places talk about family-centered care — but The Children’s Institute makes it happen,” says Holly Desmore. “There’s no place else like it in the world.”

Health issues left little Vanden Bickar unable to take a single sip to drink or a tiny bite to eat.

8 | AMAZING RESULTS | 2012 ANNUAL REPORT

With treatment at The Children’s Institute, Vanden is now happily eating and drinking a good portion of his meals.

Little Vanden Bickar, 14 months, was nourished only through a feeding tube. He had refractory epilepsy and developed further problems that left him unable to take a single sip or bite.

Vanden was referred to the region’s most comprehensive Functional Feeding Program

— at The Children’s Institute. The program offers inpatient and outpatient options, and Vanden needed the intensity of inpatient treatment. A multidisciplinary team — physicians, nurses, speech/language pathologists, physical and occupational therapists and nutritionists — evaluated the toddler and developed a treatment plan.

(Behavioral psychologists are part of the team when appropriate).

Treatment began with techniques to work on Vanden’s lip closure and on the skills involved in moving food around in the mouth and chewing it. The team — including Vanden’s family — also worked on Vanden’s motor skills, some of them related to feeding issues and some because prior hospitalizations had led to developmental delays.

In Uncompensated Care FY 2012

Gradually, as the team worked with Vanden several times daily, he began to be able to take liquids, and eventually solids, by mouth.

And by his discharge eight weeks later, he was happily eating and drinking a good portion of his daily calories.

Today Vanden is an outpatient at The Children’s Institute’s Bridgeville satellite. His mom, Alissa Bickar, says, “The program has been extraordinary, with great communication and family involvement. Vanden is exceeding expectations, and we can’t thank The Children’s Institute enough.”

Improving Swallow Studies Often a first step in diagnosing feeding problems is a “modified barium swallow study,” a radiology procedure that shows a child’s swallow as it happens.

At The Children’s Institute, the studies are child-friendly: the child is acclimated to the room beforehand, family members are

present to give the child the food containing the barium, and the studies are done via a “C arm” that can be positioned around a high chair in which the child sits comfortably. It adds up to relaxed kids that remain relaxed during the process — and successful studies.

Hospital Earns Rare Accreditations The Hospital at The Children’s Institute has received three coveted accreditations — and a compliment — from CARF, the independent international Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities.

Accreditations include: Comprehensive Inpatient Rehabilitation Pediatric Specialty Program (there are only 32 in the country; no other in Pennsylvania); Inpatient Brain Injury Rehabilitation Pediatric Specialty Program (seven in the country; no other in Pennsylvania); and Outpatient Rehabilitation — Single Service Pediatric Specialty Program (38 in the country; one other in Pennsylvania).

CARF has also praised the Center for Prader-Willi Syndrome, a Children’s Institute of Pittsburgh Center of Excellence.

Healing Injured Young Brains Ivory Heard, 20, suffered a traumatic brain injury in a terrible auto accident. Months of treatment in acute-care hospitals saved her life, but Ivory was still nearly comatose, unable to respond, breathing on a ventilator and being fed through a tube. Her next-step alternatives: a nursing home — or The Children’s Institute.

Her family chose the Center for Acquired Brain Injury Rehabilitation, a Children’s Institute of Pittsburgh Center of Excellence, whose intensive treatment and rehabilitation program was created to help people like Ivory get their lives back.

Over Ivory’s five-month stay, physicians, nurses, physical and occupational therapists, speech/language pathologists, psychologists and nutritionists worked intensively with her, aided by her loving family.

By the time she was discharged, Ivory was walking with assistance and her personality was shining through. Today she continues to make progress through outpatient therapies and looks forward to returning to school. Her mom, Kelly, says, “We made the right choice: The Children’s Institute was the only place for her to be.”

RND and “Tough Love” Fifteen-year-old Kenna was in excruciating pain. Her doctors in Texas were unsure how to treat her reflex neurovascular dystrophy (RND) — so they referred her to the Pain Rehabilitation Program at The Children’s Institute.

RND is marked by disproportionately severe — even excruciating — pain following an injury.

Paradoxically, successful treatment involves intensive physical and occupational therapies that exercise the affected areas. Psychological counseling and biofeedback help patients manage stress.

Over her eight-week stay, Kenna improved remarkably. “We had a wonderful experience there,” says Kenna’s mom, Vicki Faust. She smiles and adds, “The therapists do ‘tough love’ in a nurturing and effective way.”

While many patients benefit from an inpatient stay, some families in the region said they want their kids to continue in school while receiving treatment.

In response, The Children’s Institute launched a new late-afternoon scheduling program. Begun at the main Squirrel Hill campus, the late-afternoon scheduling model is so successful that it will expand to the Norwin Hills satellite later this year.

The Hospital at The Children’s Institute of Pittsburgh is of only 20 freestanding pediatric rehabilitation specialty hospitals in the country. And the only one in Pennsylvania.

Using the Mind to Control the Body Biofeedback, in which the mind is trained to control body functions that are normally involuntary, can be a powerful treatment tool. It typically involves linking the patient to a computer — through sensors on the fingers or head — and having the patient practice focusing his or her mind to control objects on the screen.

Biofeedback sounds like magic, but it works as patients learn to control their heart rate, breathing, skin conductance and even brainwaves and brain blood flow. Biofeedback is often used with patients who have RND and with others who’d benefit from learning relaxation techniques to manage stress and pain. In the Autism Service, biofeedback is used to help young patients increase their attention and focus.

Most patients succeed at biofeedback — and most enjoy the process.

Helping Kids Breathe and Grow Most good healthcare institutions can manage the medical care of kids who depend on ventilators to help them breathe — but The Children’s Institute offers more: it helps the kids catch up developmentally.

Three-year-old Svana McCool of Brookville is a chubby-cheeked child born with significant health problems. One of her surgeries left her on a vent and deconditioned enough that she couldn’t even hold her head up or grasp objects.

Svana came to The Children’s Institute, and over a two-month stay, excellent medical and nursing care plus intensive physical, occupational and speech/language therapies helped her become a playful little girl again, even able to toddle around with a portable vent.

Along the way, her family members learned the at-home care for her complicated equipment. “The staff was patient and wonderful with us,” says mom Rachael McCool.

“We’re so glad we went there.”

Helping Kids Recover from Concussions The Children’s Institute’s Outpatient Concussion Management Program treats children and young people from preschool through college age. Drawing on the expertise of the Hospital’s Center for Brain Injury Rehabilitation, a Children’s Institute of Pittsburgh Center of Excellence, the multidisciplinary team helps patients cope with symptoms that can be both physical (for example, headaches and balance problems) and cognitive (for instance, inattention).

The team works with patients and parents to structure a safe return-to-activities schedule, and, when appropriate, advises patients’ schools about necessary curriculum modifications. The ultimate goal: to help the patient regain his or her optimal level of function as quickly as possible.

Outpatient medical and therapy services are also offered at three satellite sites in Wexford, Bridgeville and Norwin Hills.

THE DAY SCHOOL AT TH E CH IL D REN ’S I N STI TUTE

When most teenagers boot up their MP3 players, it’s no big deal. But it’s a very big deal when Brent Smalstig,19, rocks the house.

The Day School at The Children’s Institute is individualizing technology, enabling our students to be more independent.

A student at The Day School, Brent has severe cerebral palsy that necessitates the use of a wheelchair. His most effective and controlled motions are with his head.

“Learning to manage leisure is important for everyone, but it’s not easy for young people with significant disabilities,” says Cheryl Fogarty, EdD, Chief School

Administrator. “So, particularly as our students get older, we focus on helping them move toward independence in leisure.”

Brent had become adept with his augmentative communication device, making selections by inclining his head leftward onto a padded switch. The reliable but slow process involved scanning through multiple options; that took time, but it let Brent converse by choosing what the computer would say for him.

Then a new-generation device offered more capability. So Brent’s teacher, the school’s lead physical therapist, the staff rehabilitation engineer, and Pitt’s Rehabilitation Engineering Department — a longtime research partner — collaborated to figure out how to help Brent use the device for his leisure.

They outfitted Brent with a high-tech

marvel: a tiny sensor that can adhere to his forehead, and on his device a little camera that sees where the sensor is pointing.

It took a lot of painstaking practice, but now Brent looks at his device’s screen and moves his head, making a selection simply by pointing the sensor at whatever he wants — for instance, Springsteen’s “Glory Days.”

Brent’s device can also read e-books, and soon the staff will load his favorite videos.

Kathy Smalstig, Brent’s mom, says, “Being able to entertain ourselves is a lifelong skill. The Day School wants Brent to have the quality of life his father and I want for him, and they’re caring and Students in expert enough to help The Day School him achieve that.”

Using Technology to Go Back in Time Have you ever wished you could easily identify the triggers for a child’s sudden behavior? Teachers at The Day School are working on doing exactly that.

In some classrooms for students with autism, The Day School is piloting “behavior imaging” technology. When a puzzling behavior occurs, the technology records it — and, when the teacher hits a button on a remote, the system’s buffering capability shows not only the behavior but also what occurred in the minutes before it.

“Seeing what preceded the behavior helps us understand the cause,” says Cheryl

Fogarty, Chief School Administrator, “and that understanding informs ongoing intervention and treatment.”

The use of behavior imaging technology is also being explored in the professional development of teachers and others working with children who have autism. The videos can also be shared with the students’ families and physicians, demonstrating behaviors better than words could.

School Districts Provide Feedback The Day School’s new District Advisory Panel brings representatives from ten southwestern Pennsylvania school districts together twice a year to provide feedback about The Day School’s programming and services and to make recommendations about future activities.

The purpose of the Panel is to help ensure that The Day School provides students with education and skills relevant to the communities in which the students live. Each school district provides the funding for its students who attend The Day School — so it’s essential to include representative districts’ input about both current and future programming and services.

New Curriculum Moves Ahead This year, The Day School continued creating its own curriculum focusing on assessment.

The components of standardized assessment instruments are often not detailed enough to reflect the incremental developmental progress of students with significant disabilities. Without that detail, it’s difficult to determine whether progress is being made and what the “next steps” should be.

The Day School has adapted standardized assessment instruments and developed its own literacy screening tool.

By color-coding the steps in each student’s progress, teachers, parents and school district representatives can readily see the gains students make each school year.

The Day School plans to make the entire new curriculum available to other schools when it’s complete.

Special Olympics For the first time last year, The Day School hosted its own Special Olympics track and field meet. More than 50 students competed in both regulation and adapted events.

The large parking lot at The Children’s Institute was transformed with lane

markings, cooling tents, daises for medalists, refreshment tables, judges’ perches, areas for spectators, and (of course) an Olympic torch.

The event earned rave reviews from kids, families and staff.

How Zach found a “Forever Family.”

The tidy Hermitage home of the Long family looks typical: three kids and their friends zooming in and out, laughing, grabbing snacks and talking about school.

But the Longs are unusual because the oldest child, 14-year-old Zach, is the newest addition to the family.

Zach — an outgoing kid with a great smile — was adopted through the Older Child Matching Initiative (OCMI) — a

statewide program with which Project STAR works to find “forever families” for older kids who are traditionally less likely to be adopted.

Terri and Jonah Long had two younger kids — both adopted — but wanted a larger family. Terri met Zach, who had been in foster care in Johnstown, at a special matching event — and they clicked. Terri smiles as she recalls, “Jonah was working out of town. I called him and said, ‘I think I’ve met our son!”

After discussion with each other, Project STAR and the agency responsible for Zach — plus a lot of thought and prayer — the Longs arranged for Zach to visit for a weekend … and he’s never left.

Today the Longs are a close, happy, multicultural family. Zach is delighted with his role as big brother to Allie, 7, and Trenton, 4 — and the younger kids are crazy about him.

But across Pennsylvania, 700

kids, ages 10 through 21, are still in foster care or group homes waiting for their own forever families.

Family Visitation Center Gets Rave Reviews Project STAR’s new Family Visitation Center, part of the Center for Family Visitation, a Children’s Institute Center of Excellence, is receiving high usage — and great reviews.

The Center’s purpose: to provide a homelike space that families can use for their court-ordered supervised visitations.

Two adjacent houses on The Children’s Institute’s Squirrel Hill campus were

remodeled and joined to create the new facility.

In Allegheny Resource families trained County, many and ready to foster or visitations now adopt a child take place in office settings. But Walter H. Smith Jr., PhD, Integrated Program Initiatives Manager for the Allegheny County Department of Human Services, says, “Families working to recreate or support bonds do best when the setting encourages ordinary activities like preparing something to eat or sitting on the couch reading a story.

“We believe the Project STAR Family Visitation Center is an excellent model. It raises the standard, and one of our goals in the future is to find ways to support what The Children’s Institute does around visitation.”

Program Helps Parents and Teens “We’ve learned a lot about ourselves as well as our children.”

That’s a father talking about Teaming Together with Teens (TTT), a program in which Project STAR partners with Beaver

County Children and Youth Services.

The purpose: to help parents and their teenage kids experiencing conflict learn mutual understanding and to help parents learn to respond productively to teens.

Two groups — with teens facilitated

by CYS and parents facilitated by Project STAR — meet every other week over a meal. Typical meeting topics include anger management, bullying and social media safety.

Between meetings, Project STAR caseworkers spend time with parents in the family home, working on family-specific issues. Kristin Lee, Project STAR Permanency Specialist and TTT Program Director, says, “Many families simply need to brainstorm and problem-solve while for others we recommend additional supports.”

Some families self-refer to the program, and some are referred by CYS. In TTT’s first year, just ended, 93% of parents reported that their participation helped them feel better prepared to handle their teens’ behaviors; 68% reported improved use of non-aggressive consequences when teens didn’t follow rules; and 67% increased rewards for teens who complied with rules.

Medical Foster Care Saves Kylie Kylie was a very sick baby. Hospitalized since her birth in New Jersey, and with parents unable to care for her, she was brought to Pittsburgh for treatment at Children’s Hospital of UPMC — but she couldn’t be placed on the list for a

multi-organ transplant unless a foster family could be found to provide the Children placed complicated medical with loving care she needed. foster families Project STAR stepped in — and asked the Schnupp family of Brighton Township to step up.

“We were blessed with five healthy children and wanted to help a child who wasn’t so healthy,” says Mike Schnupp.

So while Kylie underwent treatment and multiple extensive therapies at The Hospital at The Children’s Institute, Mike and his wife Amie learned how to care for Kylie, who went home as their foster child.

The excellent healthcare in the hospitals and at home, plus lots of love from her foster parents and siblings, produced remarkable results: The Schnupps adopted Kylie, whose health improved enough that she no longer needs a transplant.

Creating Knowledge Children’s Institute Researchers Develop New “Best Practices” Some people are surprised to learn that The Children’s Institute, a relatively small organization, has a research program that is robust, comprehensive — and successful.

Long a collaborator with researchers at universities and colleges, The Children’s Institute launched its own program two years ago. A highly respected research manager, Roxann Diez Gross, PhD, joined the staff, and The Children’s Institute’s own Institutional Research Board (IRB) was formed. An IRB is a formally structured committee, regulated by the US Department of Health and Human Services and the Food and Drug Administration, that carefully evaluates proposed research projects with close attention to legal and ethical issues.

The Children’s Institute’s research focus is translational — aimed at developing evidence-based “best practices.” Today there are nearly two dozen studies in the pipeline from design, to data collection, analysis and completion. Principal investigators are staff professionals collaborating

22 | AMAZING RESULTS | 2012 ANNUAL REPORT

across a wide range of disciplines.

The studies, which involve not only The Hospital, but The Day School and Project STAR, include, for example: the development of ways to reduce the occurrence of pressure sores in patients with spinal cord injuries; examination of the swallowing function in patients with Prader-Willi Syndrome; using collaborative robot play to improve the communication skills of students who have augmentative communication devices; and determining whether, and to what degree, family visitation is more productive in a homelike setting.

Most projects are accomplished in partnership with other research institutions — for instance, University of Pittsburgh, Carnegie Mellon,

Duquesne, Chatham, Drexel and Slippery Rock — while some are fully independent.

When studies are completed, Children’s Institute researchers share the newly developed knowledge through conference presentations, professional meetings and publications.

Sharing Knowledge Staff Members Lead in Professional Development Members of the staff of The Children’s Institute continually share their professional expertise with colleagues in the region and across the country. Presentations at conferences and meetings, leadership in organizations that advocate and inform, and teaching tomorrow’s professionals are all activities that ultimately benefit kids and families everywhere.

VISION2016 24 | AMAZING RESULTS | 2012 ANNUAL REPORT

Shaping the Future The Children’s Institute of Pittsburgh will be a nationally and internationally recognized leader in the provision of family-centered care and coordination of services for children and youth with special needs and for any child needing rehabilitation services.

The hallmark of The Children’s Institute’s legacy will continue to be an unwavering commitment to these children and their families.

The New Strategic Plan Today The Children’s Institute of Pittsburgh is a recognized leader in pediatric rehabilitation, the education of students with significant special needs and social services that build and strengthen families.

The challenge, of course, is to ensure that the organization will still be able to serve kids and families tomorrow.

How to do that? Through an energetic and meticulous strategic planning process that helps position The Children’s Institute to respond productively to challenges in healthcare, education and social services.

The Children’s Institute recently completed “Vision 2016,” a strategic plan resulting from 18 months of intensive work.

Led by the Board of Directors, and with participation throughout the organization — including families of young patients and students — the plan provides a detailed road map to a sound organizational future.

“Vision 2016” lays out four overarching strategic objectives: 1. Establish The Children’s Institute as the leader in innovative and integrated care and education delivery models for children and youth with special healthcare needs.

Each of the overarching objectives has associated sub-objectives, and the plan outlines the tactics and resources needed to meet the objectives.

The Children’s Institute’s Board, management, and staff are now “working the plan.” We have created five Centers of Excellence and each is working to heighten its impact through the framework specified in the plan.

• Center for Acquired Brain Injury

2. Establish and enhance “Centers of Excellence,” which adhere to a framework that includes expertise/best practices; continuity of care; family-centered focus; results/outcomes; knowledge sharing; research; advocacy; and external affirmation.

3. Provide comprehensive permanency and family support services.

Rehabilitation • Center for Autism • Center for Family Visitation • Center for Prader-Willi Syndrome • Center for Spinal Cord Injury Rehabilitation

The end result of making the plan a reality will be that The Children's Institute will be able to do even more to benefit children and families.

4. Continue to develop organizational capability to ensure sustainability of the mission.

Financial Review OF THE CHILDREN’S INSTITUTE During Fiscal 2012 service-related operating revenues increased approximately $2 million or 5 percent. All client-related reimbursements reflected no increase in payment for service. This was a direct result of the increase in client services, the majority of which was related to hospital outpatient activity. Because of this increase in client services along with expenses related to electronic health record implementation, operating expenses increased by approximately $2 million.

Also, total assets decreased by $5 million as a direct result of investment activity correlating to the financial market involvement.
