Foundation Board of Directors
word of thanks from our Foundation Chairman As we welcome the spring season, your Foundation is gearing up for many exciting events to benefit High Point Regional Health System. Most exciting this year will be a new occasion: our first “Sun & Stars Signature Event” which will take place on Monday, September 26. This is a date you will want to save on your calendar right now because we are planning a day and night that we promise you will not want to miss! More details will follow, but we can tell you now that we will conclude the day with a fantastic reception featuring an intimate concert at the High Point Country Club with five time Grammy winner Christopher Cross! As always, and most importantly, the funds raised by the “Signature” event will benefit our health system; in this case the Heart and Cancer Programs! While we work hard to present you with engaging activities and fun events, we hope you remember that community support for our hospital is really the point of it all. Our goal is always to help ensure that our healthcare professionals have the most advanced medical equipment and services available to best meet the needs of the patients, families and neighbors we serve at High Point Regional. The Foundation strives to grow the list of people who make commitments to our health system because every dollar counts in helping to heal and to save lives. Thankfully, these efforts continue to pay off. In this edition of our magazine, you will read how High Point Regional Health System has been recognized as one of the top 50 cardio hospitals in the country! I hope you feel gratified in knowing your generosity makes this level of healthcare excellence possible right here in our community. Thank you for all that you do for High Point Regional!

High Point Regional Named One of the Top Cardiovascular Hospitals in the Nation On November 15, 2010, HPRHS President Jeff Miller learned High Point Regional Health System had been named one of the 50 top cardiovascular hospitals in the nation for 2011 by Thomson Reuters. “This recognition is a tremendous milestone for our heart program,” Miller says. “Thomson Reuters is the industry leader in collecting and assimilating healthcare data and monitors vital healthcare trends, such as excellence in cardiovascular care, across the United States. “Recognition by Thomson Reuters carries a great deal of prestige,” Miller explains. Over 1,000 hospitals in the United States offer the cardiovascular services regularly monitored by Thomson Reuters. Out of those hospitals, Thomson Reuters selected the 50 best cardiovascular services. Within those 50 top cardiovascular facilities, just 15 are
community hospitals like High Point Regional, Miller points out. This honor places High Point Regional in the same hierarchy of healthcare providers as premier major medical centers and teaching hospitals with cardiovascular residency programs throughout the nation. “This is the biggest and best accomplishment that our heart program has had,” explains cardiologist Dr. Zan Tyson of Carolina Cardiology Cornerstone. “It’s a valid accomplishment in that all of the hospitals monitored are based on the same statistics. This is not an award or a designation that you can seek or apply for.” The “Top 50” designation is based on three years of data about each hospital’s success in targeted areas. In determining this honor, Thomson Reuters analyzed

the-art cardiovascular technology and research, invasive, non-invasive and interventional procedures, as well as cardiac and pulmonary rehabilitation.
“Recognition by Thomson Reuters carries a great deal of prestige.”
The hospitals that made it to the top tier were the ones whose patients have higher survival rates, shorter hospital stays, fewer readmissions, fewer complications and lower costs of care. “These are the very same goals we have always maintained for heart care at High Point Regional,” Miller says. When High Point Regional’s leaders began plans to expand the hospital’s cardiology services to include cardiovascular surgery and a comprehensive heart center well over 20 years ago, they pursued this vision with one goal: Excellence. In January 1991 High Point Regional performed its first open heart surgery, and today the hospital performs approximately 240 such surgeries annually. In 2001, High Point Regional opened Carolina Regional Heart Center, a facility that houses the offices of all cardiologists and cardiovascular surgeons, state-of-
“Dr. Cheek and I have both been part of this program since the very beginning,” says Dr. Tyson who specializes in heart rhythm disorders. He is the director of Carolina Cardiology Cornerstone’s Electrophysiology (EP) Program and director for High Point Regional's Outpatient Catheterization and EP laboratories. “From the very beginning, our plans were to build one of the best programs in the country,” Miller explains. “Our region reached out to raise the funds necessary to build – and continue to operate – this center. The campaign raised a total of nearly $13 million dollars which funded several projects. Contributions from Fred & Barbara Wilson helped fund our Cath Lab and the renovation of our critical care unit was funded by Jack and Marsha Slane.” “And thanks to the dedication of our cardiologists, cardiothoracic surgeons, nurses and countless support staff, we have been able to make that vision a reality.” Being named one of the top 50 heart programs in the nation is affirmation that the entire Heart Team has had continued pg. 7
Thomson Reuters 2011 Top 50 Cardiovascular Hospitals This elite group of winners has raised the bar significantly, delivering higher survival rates, shorter hospital stays, fewer readmissions and lower costs - which add up to enormous value for the communities they serve. As a result, everyone benefits: patients, families, employers, insurers and the hospital itself. Comparing the award winners to similar high-volume non-award winning hospitals, we found that if all cardiovascular providers performed at the level of this year's winners: • More than 7,500 additional lives could be saved. • Nearly 12,000 additional patients could be complication-free. • Approximately $910 million could be saved.

“I heard a patient from Lexington say that this is the place to come for heart surgery,” says cardiovascular surgeon Dr. Stephen Mills of Triad Cardiac & Thoracic Surgery of High Point. Dr. Mills, who was one of the first two cardiothoracic (CT) surgeons in High Point Regional’s open heart
Cheek of Carolina Cardiology Cornerstone. Dr. Cheek serves as director of the Inpatient Catheterization Laboratory at High Point Regional Hospital and serves with Dr. Tyson on the board of directors for Carolina Regional Heart Center. “There is a lot of interaction between us,” explains Dr. Cheek, who along with Dr. Tyson and Dr. Mills has been instrumental in Carolina Regional Heart Center’s vision and success.
“It’s been very gratifying to watch this program grow from the ground up and to know that patients now view us as their first choice for care” surgery program and who has been with the program since its inception, takes immense satisfaction in the Thomson Reuters designation, yet he never loses sight of the focus of Carolina Regional Heart Center – the patients. “It’s been very gratifying to watch this program grow from the ground up and to know that patients now view us as their first choice for care,” Mills says. “Our statistics are very impressive, and that’s a result of communication and collaboration between the CT surgeons, the cardiologists and the nursing staff. Right now our hospital stay for cardiothoracic surgery is three days. This is what patients can expect when they come here,” Mills explains. “The good outcomes of patient care are a reflection of the culture and the teamwork here. We’ve always had high expectations and attention to detail,” Mills explains. Keys to the success of High Point Regional’s heart program are fairly simple, in theory that is. “All 20 cardiologists on staff are members of the same medical group. Consequently, they all follow the same patient care protocols and maintain open communication,” points out cardiologist Dr. Barry
“There’s a comfort level here that you don’t see at other hospitals,” Dr. Mills says. “We understand how the other thinks. We understand the direction we will each take with a patient. There’s a tremendous ability of the nurses to know what to expect for our patients’ care too.” Plus, the entire team feels rooted in this community – a community that put its faith and its financial support behind a vision to provide excellent heart care. “We’ve been the recipients of a generous community,” Mills says. “This community has made certain that we had the best facilities in which to provide care. The Millis family in particular has continued to provide ongoing support over the years and most recently established the Millis Heart Fund at High Point Regional. “We wanted to provide a way to recognize the incredible work and achievements of our cardiovascular team at High Point Regional” says Molly Millis Hedgecock. “Our hope was that our contributions would encourage others to help ensure this outstanding level of healthcare is maintained and available to all in our community now and into the future.”

380,000
High Point Regional Health System Receives
$
Grant to Help Those with Mental Illness High Point Regional Health System received a $380,000 grant, which will be used in collaboration with the Mental Health Association in High Point to establish an outpatient treatment service for needy adults who suffer from severe and persistent mental illness. The grant is from The Duke Endowment. “I am thrilled about this grant and the support it will enable the community to provide to patients coming out of our hospital, said Kitty Stafford, Behavioral Health clinical director at High Point Regional. For the past five years, there has been a tremendous gap in outpatient therapy services available in our community. This grant will provide patients with an opportunity to receive ongoing, outpatient therapy and hopefully prevent re-hospitalization.” Thanks to the grant, between 450 and 500 patients annually will receive care who would otherwise have no access to outpatient treatment. Mental illness statistics are both alarming and growing. In fact, more
than 27,000 residents in Guilford County suffer from mental illness and with N.C. Mental Health Reform, these numbers are increasing. "With the increase in psychiatric patients seen in the Emergency
“This grant will support High Point Regional and the Mental Health Association in providing outpatient services in conjunction with medication management for increased positive outcomes.
“This grant will provide patients with an opportunity to receive ongoing, outpatient therapy and hopefully prevent re-hospitalization.” Department, the problem of where to seek outpatient services has placed a huge strain on the system, said Meg Cashion, Emergency Department manager at High Point Regional. As a result, there is a lack of available resources to serve indigent patients who are discharged from hospitals with no plan for necessary individual therapy.
High Point Regional will develop the patient’s aftercare plan and facilitates a timely referral to the Mental Health Association. The Mental Health Association will make personal contact with the patient to increase the likelihood of followthrough with aftercare/discharge planning for outpatient services and medication management.
“We are extremely fortunate to have been the recipient of this grant. This will assist us in providing the followup care that is seriously needed."
The Duke Endowment, located in Charlotte, N.C., seeks to fulfill the legacy of James B. Duke by improving lives and communities in the Carolinas through higher education, health care, rural churches and children’s services. Since its inception, the Endowment has awarded nearly $2.7 billion in grants.

DOCTORS MAKING HOUSE CALLS INTRODUCING “RAPID ROUNDS� Familiar with the concept of hospital rounds? If so, Denise Potter, Vice President of the Foundation, has introduced "Rapid Rounds" which takes "medical rounding" to an entirely new level. To date, six receptions have been held in homes of friends of the hospital throughout the community since last year. The receptions which typically have 50 in attendance, each features physicians and nursing professionals who provide information on the latest advances regarding patient care programs, technology and services on a variety of specialized areas. Rapid Rounds provides an opportunity for guests to be "up close and personal" with physicians in a non-medical casual setting. "It's a great way to become more informed about all of the exciting developments and exceptional healthcare offerings available at High Point Regional" says Potter. "We have received such a positive response from these events that we will continue to offer them in the future."

The Gift of Music Michael Williford, son of Tim Williford and Dr. Susan Williford, an oncologist with Emerywood Oncology, is a first-year medical student at Wake Forest School of Medicine and has already mastered the art of giving! After winning $25,000.00 from American Eagle for co-creating the MedAssist program while a high school student and volunteer at High Point Regional’s Cancer Center, he felt compelled to make two generous gifts to help cancer patients here. First he made a donation to the LoveLine Cancer Support program which provides assistance to patients and their families with expenses associated with their cancer care. Michael’s second gift was the gift of music. He very generously donated a Yamaha Clavinova electronic piano which can be programmed to provide music all day. Hearing soothing music upon entering the Cancer Center has provided a warm welcome for our patients and visitors! Pictured: Patrick Williford and Michael Williford
