D ELIVERI N G KI N D N ESS Pediatric patient Imogen Vaillancourt’s family didn’t plan on celebrating her first birthday in the hospital. Then again, they also didn’t expect little Imogen to suffer from respiratory distress and pneumonia, requiring multiple medications, intravenous treatments, and outpatient follow up.

When pediatric nurses at Marian Regional Medical Center learned of Imogen’s birthday, rather than cancelling her party, nursing staff transformed the Unit’s pediatric playroom into a birthday celebration for one-year-old Imogen and her family.

At Marian, our medical professionals are dedicated to more than just medicine. We believe life’s about the remarkable moments – the big things, the little things, and everything in between – and knowing you have a partner in health to make sure you can enjoy them.

LETTER FRO M TH E PRESI D ENT Dear Community Members, At Marian Regional Medical Center, our physicians, nurses, and support staff are committed to providing medicine that goes above and beyond standard clinical care.

A M OVEM ENT O F H O PE Second annual Day of Hope to benefit local cancer patients and families

Cancer not only affects those with the disease; it affects an entire community. This is why Marian Regional Medical Center, in partnership with the Santa Maria Times, is proud to present the second annual Day of Hope community event on Thursday, April 16, 2015.

A single dollar doesn’t buy much these days, but with the purchase of a $1 Special Edition Day of Hope Santa Maria Times newspaper, you have the power to make a positive difference in the lives of Central Coast cancer patients and families at Mission Hope Cancer Center.

Join hundreds of community volunteers on April 16 as teams man street intersections of Santa Maria and Orcutt with a mission to ask drivers passing by to roll down their car windows and purchase a $1.00 Special Edition Day of Hope newspaper. One hundred percent of all Day of Hope proceeds stay in the community, benefiting cancer programs and support services for patients and families.

ALL DAY OF HOPE PROCEEDS DIRECTLY SUPPORT: •

PATIENT OUTREACH NEEDS—Medical or material needs for patients and

families struggling to make ends meet •

EQUIPMENT & TECHNOLOGY— Acquisition of the most advanced medical treatments and technologies to better serve the community

•

PROGRAMS & SERVICES— Nurse navigation (provided by oncology certified nurses), education, support groups, etc., all offered at no charge to patients and families

Mission Hope Cancer Center As one of only three accredited Comprehensive Community Cancer Center programs between Los Angeles and San Francisco, Mission Hope Cancer Center features advanced, lifesaving technology and physicians from the nation’s top medical schools and training programs. This state-of-the-art cancer center is the first integrated oncology facility on the Central Coast, uniting Santa Maria oncology treatment, imaging, research, education, and support services at one convenient location for patients and families.

During Tumor Boards at Mission Hope Cancer Center, physicians, specialists, and nurse navigators review and discuss each newly diagnosed cancer patient case, providing patients with a second and third medical opinion prior to treatment.

Mission Hope’s Expert Team The role of Mission Hope Cancer Center’s specialized physicians goes beyond just treating cancer, ordering tests, and prescribing medications. Mission Hope Cancer Center’s “mission” is to meet the diverse needs of oncology patients and their families through the coordination of expert medical care.

At Mission Hope Cancer Center, the entire team of medical professionals and volunteers have devoted their lives to oncology because they want to save lives—to treat cancer patients not as numbers, charts or symptoms, but as human beings worthy of the best care and greatest compassion.

“With an integrated care system and collaborative team approach to caring for patients, the proverb ‘it takes a village’ rings true at Mission Hope Cancer Center,” explains Robert Dichmann, MD, Medical Director, Marian Cancer Care. “The foundation for the center’s approach focuses on the state-ofthe-art facility and latest in advanced technology; however, it is the constant communication between physicians and specialists that that holds everything together and provides care that remains a step above.”

Mission Hope Cancer Center’s Oncology Team, consisting of medical oncologists, radiation oncologists, pathologists, radiologists, surgeons, and nurse navigators, meets twice a week for Tumor Boards to review and discuss important case aspects of each newly diagnosed cancer patient.

“Mission Hope’s Tumor Boards offer significant benefits to our patients by providing a second and third medical opinion even before patients begin their course of treatment,” adds Dr. Dichmann.

Nurse Navigation Being diagnosed with cancer is a life altering event. When cancer patients are fighting for their lives, it can be both extremely challenging and overwhelming to navigate through the health care system.

Marian Cancer Care nurse navigators at Mission Hope Cancer Center are certified in oncology and serve as advocates for those battling cancer by guiding patients through every step of the complex health care system, providing access to invaluable resources, and ensuring that each and every patient never has to face cancer alone.

KRISTI N ALEXAN D ER’S STO RY O F H O PE Breast cancer survivor named 2015 Day of Hope Ambassador

The words ‘breast cancer’ have rocked Kristin Alexander’s world not just once, but twice.

At the young age of 18, Kristin learned of her mother’s breast cancer diagnosis. The eldest of eight children, her carefree upbringing and life perspective was forever changed as she became fearful of her family’s uncertain future.

Although it was an incredibly difficult time, Kristin watched her mother turn a painful experience of chemotherapy treatments, radiation therapy, and numerous surgeries, into a loving period surrounded by family. Despite Kristin’s mother’s will to live, within just five years cancer claimed her life.

For many, a cancer diagnosis can take away one’s sense of self-assurance and control. It can also have a frightening effect on family members’ sense of security. But for Kristin, her mother’s battle with cancer became a poignant time in her life, and an experience that would leave a lasting impression of confidence and positivity.

Throughout the next 20 years, Kristin remained vigilant about her health and the importance of early detection, but at age 40, the healthy mother of two was about to face yet another shocking hurdle: a breast cancer diagnosis.

“After hearing the words, ‘breast cancer’ I realized what I had to lose and what my family would lose if I let the disease win,” affirms Kristin.

Once referred to Mission Hope Cancer Center, Kristin was put under the care of board certified breast surgeon Monica Rocco, MD, FACS, Medical Director, Mission Hope Breast Care Center. Like all Marian Cancer Care breast cancer patients at Mission Hope Cancer Center, she was also assigned a nurse navigator, Elizabeth Elliott, RN, OCN, CBCN, CBPN-IC, who walked with Kristin along her breast cancer journey of treatment, surgery, and survivorship.

“After coming to Mission Hope Cancer Center I realized there was hope,” recounts Kristin. “Once I met Dr. Rocco, I could let the air out of my lungs. Also the nurse navigation support answered all my questions along the way, making me feel informed, comfortable, and at ease.”

The journey of cancer can turn a patient’s world upside down, however many patients like Kristin find that amidst the loss, there is something to be gained – a new perspective on life.

Whether it is a cuddle on the couch or having energy to go for a walk, Kristin now cherishes every seemingly insignificant moment. And with her newfound passion for life as a cancer survivor, Kristin made one of her lifelong dreams a reality by opening a fitness studio where she offers free exercise classes to anyone battling cancer.

Marian Regional Medical Center, in partnership with the Santa Maria Times, is proud to announce Kristin Alexander as the 2015 Day of Hope Ambassador. Join Kristin and hundreds of volunteer community members for the second annual Day of Hope on Thursday, April 16, 2015.

G I FTI N G H O PE Jesse and Rosa Manriquez’s contributions of generosity and community advocacy

“It was an easy decision,” says Jesse of Rancho Harvest’s palm tree donation to Mission Hope Cancer Center. “We are all touched by cancer – whether it is a family member or friend – we are just happy to be able to do our part.”

Jesse and Rosa have generously supported both Marian Regional Medical Center and Mission Hope Cancer Center at every turn through gifts of their leadership, time, and resources. In support of Marian’s Cornerstone Campaign to build the new hospital, Jesse and Rosa graciously donated $25,000 to sponsor a quad of four patient rooms in the new building. More recently in 2014, when Jesse and Rosa were presented with the opportunity to sponsor the inaugural Day of Hope event in support of Marian Cancer Care patients at Mission Hope Cancer Center, they didn’t hesitate to name Rancho Harvest, Inc. as a $10,000 Hope Sponsor.

Generous Marian Regional Medical Center supporters Jesse and Rosa Manriquez stand with the more than 30 palm trees they donated to Mission Hope Cancer Center in 2012.

With a family history of cancer, advocating on the behalf of local cancer patients and their families is a cause that remains near and dear to the hearts of Jesse and Rosa Manriquez, community philanthropists and owners of Rancho Harvest, Inc.

As a former Marian Foundation Board member serving from 1999 to 2001, Jesse has long understood the value of philanthropic work at Marian. And now, as a current Marian Cancer Care Advisory Committee member, he is part of a group of community leaders who identify oncology funding needs to enhance the cancer patient and family experience.

Together, Jesse and Rosa have experienced just how devastating an unexpected cancer diagnosis and cancer journey can be for loved ones and families. Rosa’s mother, Trinidad Guadalupe Sanchez, was diagnosed with colon cancer in 2002 and passed away nine months later in July of 2003 at the age of 72. And Jesse’s cousin, Jose Leal, was diagnosed with late-stage prostate cancer at the age of 59 in June of 2011 and lost his battle with the disease only one month later.

Jesse’s work as a Marian Cancer Care Advisory Committee member has proved invaluable as he, along with cancer program leaders, spearheads ongoing cancer screenings for the Latino community by enlisting the help of Spanish radio stations and promoting how early detection saves lives. Furthermore, Jesse also helped identify the need for community cancer screening payment assistance support for those who are uninsured or underinsured.

With the passing of two close family members, Jesse and Rosa have witnessed just how important it can be for cancer patients to receive not only the highest level of medical care, but also be provided with meaningful community support services. As a result, when the Marian Foundation approached Jesse and Rosa about purchasing more than 30 palm trees from Rancho Harvest for the landscaping of Mission Hope Cancer Center, they instead offered to donate all the trees to the region’s first integrated cancer center, free of charge.

“My hope is that more community members open up their hearts by giving in support of patients at Mission Hope Cancer Center,” affirms Jesse. “Cancer is a painful experience – for the individual and entire families. It is rewarding to know that together, we can make a difference.”

I NVESTI N G I N LI FESAVI N G SEEDS Donati Family Endowment funds Radioactive Seeds Program for breast cancer patients

“At the time, there were not nearly as many cancer treatment options available as today,” states David Donati. “By establishing the endowment our hope was to allow patients to remain in the local area for treatment and to provide community members with a higher level of care.”

As a family, brothers Fred, David, and Dick Donati along with their sister, Catherine Allen, believe strongly in making investments that produce a meaningful return. And now in 2015, 15 years later, the Donati Family Endowment will again be providing invaluable funding resources as Marian Cancer Care at Mission Hope Cancer Center becomes the first and only cancer program in the region to offer radioactive seed localization: an innovative, new approach to marking breast tumors prior to surgery.

David, Fred, and Dick Donati pose for a photo within the Marian Breast Imaging Center at Mission Hope Cancer Center.

After experiencing three significant family deaths due to cancer, the Donati family knows all too well the devastation cancer can inflict on both ailing patients and mourning loved ones.

With a shared vision to support local cancer patients and to honor the memory of their lost loved ones, the Donatis established the Donati Family Endowment in early 2000 to benefit Marian Cancer Care patients at Mission Hope Cancer Center.

Fred Donati explains, “Our dad passed away in 1980, then my wife, Carol, in 1997, and our mother followed in 1999 – all due to cancer. It’s a heartbreaking thing to see someone you love slowly die.”

In 2002, just two short years after the establishment, the Donati Family Endowment made its first significant distribution to fund specialized oncology training for registered nurses caring for cancer patients at Marian Regional Medical Center.

Recent research suggests that radioactive seed localization produces a more precise alternative to the standard and sometimes painful tumor marking approach involving the placement of a wire and hook in the breast prior to surgery.

Rather than inserting a wire to mark the location of a tumor, instead a tiny radioactive seed is placed in the breast.

The seed emits low level radiation and serves as a beacon, helping surgeons to locate the cancerous lump with greater accuracy, improving surgical outcomes and decreasing the number of second surgeries due to incomplete removal.

Additionally, from a scheduling perspective, radioactive seed localization is favorable since it can be placed the day prior to surgery, opposed to wire marking which requires insertion only hours prior to surgery and can be extremely inconvenient for early morning surgeries.

Dick Donati adds, “If our deceased family members were here today they would be thrilled that the endowment is in their honor, but more importantly they would be satisfied in knowing our family’s endowment is making a difference in the lives of cancer patients in our community now and for future generations.”

A SPECIAL D ELIVERY Emergency surgery patient arrives in the nick of time for birth of son

“I knew it was serious because I received a phone call to my patient room from a nurse updating me that Wesley was being prepped for emergency surgery,” remembers Sabrina. “My concern immediately shifted from my progressing labor to my husband.”

Here at Marian Regional Medical Center, every person and every experience matters to those who turn to us for care. For the Hiscock family, their patient experience was no different as the husband of a laboring mother was in the right place at the right time for emergency care.

It was September 10, 2014, and Sabrina and Wesley Hiscock of Lompoc joyfully arrived at Marian Regional Medical Center to experience the birth of their second child. The last thing the couple anticipated was for expectant father Wesley to need emergency surgery and potentially miss the birth of their son.

“I was experiencing abdominal pain prior to arriving at the medical center,” recounts Wesley. “We actually joked that if I needed to see a physician, I would be at the right place, but I never thought that I would actually need emergency surgery during the birth of our son.”

Wesley’s main focus remained on his wife, Sabrina, as she labored throughout the day, but at five centimeters dilated his ailing physical condition prompted nursing staff to direct him to the Emergency Department. Within just minutes of evaluation, Emergency Department clinicians quickly determined that at any moment Wesley’s appendix would burst, spilling infectious materials into his abdominal cavity.

Although Sabrina and Wesley were not aware of it at the time, through strategic coordination between the Maternal and Newborn Center, Surgical Services, and Emergency Department, nursing staff were quickly working behind the scenes to do everything possible to ensure that Wesley would not miss the birth of his son.

Just one hour later, Sabrina began active labor. Simultaneously, Wesley was recovering from a successful appendectomy procedure and Surgical Services staff made Wesley’s recovery a high priority in order to reunite the expectant father with his laboring wife.

At 9:30 p.m. it was time for Sabrina to give a final push and although she was elated to meet her son, she couldn’t help but be saddened that Wesley was not present to share in one of life’s most meaningful experiences. But as baby Gabriel Hiscock was born, Wesley was wheeled into the delivery room just in the nick of time and was first to hold baby Gabriel following delivery.

“We are so grateful for all those who pulled together to allow our family to share such a special moment in our lives,” acknowledges Wesley. “I will forever be comforted in knowing that there are special people who go out of their way. We just can’t thank everyone at Marian enough.”

Father and emergency surgery patient Wesley Hiscock makes it just in the nick of time to be the first to hold baby Gabriel following delivery.

CELEBRATI N G TI NY M I RACLES Inaugural reunion celebrates Neonatal ICU graduates

At Marian Regional Medical Center’s Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) small miracles come through our doors daily and leave significant imprints on our caregivers’ hearts.

For these very tiny infants, the medical center’s NICU is their home for the first weeks and even months of their lives. During this time, an extraordinary, lifetime bond is created between premature or critically ill infants and their nurse and physician caregivers who provide lifesaving care.

10

To celebrate the young lives of these very special patients, Marian hosted an inaugural NICU Reunion on September 28, 2014. With more than 350 community members in attendance, the fun-filled event allowed NICU graduates, some born as young as 23 weeks gestation and weighing just over a pound, and their families the opportunity to reconnect with neonatal nurses and neonatologists.

Twins Hudson and Zoey Petersen, with parents Jake and Zinnia, were the first twins born in the new hospital on May 29, 2012. Born at just 33 weeks gestation, Hudson and Zoey spent their first month of life in Marian Regional Medical Center’s NICU.

Micro preemie Baby Uriah Fuller was born at only 23 weeks, weighing only one pound, three ounces. Facing risk of cognitive dysfunction with an underdeveloped neurological system, baby Uriah’s future was uncertain. But due to the exceptional level of neonatal care he received at Marian’s NICU, he shows zero signs of neurological dysfunction and his future is bright.

KAYCEE RAM I REZ Pediatric patient triumphs over rare Kawasaki disease

Pediatric patient Kaycee Ramirez

When six-year-old Kaycee Ramirez’s fever spiked at 103 degrees, parents Mandy and Jason thought their little girl was just under the weather. But when Kaycee’s fever persisted and she developed frightening symptoms of bloodshot eyes, a body rash, and peeling skin, her parents knew she needed specialized medical care.

Within just days of treatment Kaycee was back to her old self, allowing the family to proceed with their highly-anticipated Disneyland vacation three weeks later.

“Today Kaycee is a vibrant, happy child,” adds Mandy. “We are beyond grateful that Kaycee is now healthy and that our family has access to top pediatric care in our home town.”

Your generous contributions in support of Maternal Child Health at Marian Regional Medical Center help save lives every day. To make a gift, please contact the Marian Foundation at 805.739.9535.

“We did what any other parents would do: we scheduled an appointment with her pediatrician,” explains Mandy, Kaycee’s mother. “When I received the call about the results of Kaycee’s lab test, I was in shock. I had never even heard of Kawasaki disease, let alone knew how serious it was.”

Kawasaki disease is a rare pediatric illness causing inflammation in the walls of the body’s medium-sized arteries and is the leading cause of acquired heart disease in children. Once the disease strikes, there is only a 10-day window for treatment to save a child’s heart from coronary artery damage.

Kaycee was immediately admitted to Marian Regional Medical Center’s Pediatric Unit on July 7, 2014, where she received lifesaving intravenous treatments. Fortunately for the Ramirez family, Kaycee and all Marian pediatric patients are provided with the highest level of advanced pediatric services all while remaining in their community, not separated from crucial support systems of family members and friends.

“Although this was a frightening time for our family, pediatric nurses and pediatrician Dr. Hillel Janai treated Kaycee as family, making her experience as pleasant as possible while providing the advanced, lifesaving care she needed,” states Mandy. “Their genuine care for our child made us feel comfortable and restored our hope for a speedy recovery.”

IMPROVING HEALTH BEYOND THE NEONATAL ICU High Risk Infant Follow Up Clinic provides safety net for children and families

Twins Liam and Maxwell Knobf pose for a photo with Susan Rasmussen, RNC-NIC, BSN, High Risk Infant Follow Up Program Coordinator, as she shares a Scholastic Foundation Early Literacy Program book. Marian’s High Risk Infant Follow Up Clinic recently earned designation as an approved Early Literacy Site for the Family and Community Engagement Program.

Born at just 26 weeks and two days gestation, twins Liam and Maxwell Knobf spent the first three months of their lives in Marian Regional Medical Center’s Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU). Like many NICU infants identified as high risk due to prematurity or low birth weight, Liam and Maxwell regularly visit Marian’s High Risk Infant Follow Up Clinic which provides ongoing developmental, behavioral, and growth assessment and referral for children from birth to age three.

“Our program serves as a safety net to identify health related problems or potential developmental issues,” explains Susan Rasmussen, RNC-NIC, BSN, High Risk Infant Follow Up Program Coordinator. “For these fragile babies, ensuring that they reach developmental milestones is crucial and we continue to see remarkable long-term outcomes when patients are provided with early identification and are connected with resources.”

EXPERT PEDIATRIC CARE Just like adults, infants and children also experience very serious, life-threatening conditions. For families who turn to Marian Regional Medical Center for care, the Pediatric Unit is fully-equipped to meet the health care needs of all children and our expert team of board-certified physicians work closely with families and referring physicians to determine the best course of treatment for each child.

A SHARED VISION Major gift from Central Coast Cardiothoracic Surgical Associates honors the Heart Center’s past, celebrates the present, and envisions the future

The heart surgeons of Central Coast Cardiothoracic Surgical Associates were builders of Marian Regional Medical Center’s Heart Center long before the Marian Foundation launched its Heart Center Expansion Project campaign in 2013 to raise $1.5 million from community donations.

Heart surgeons David Canvasser, MD, Luke Faber, MD, and Stephen Freyaldenhoven, MD, are the physicians of Central Coast Cardiothoracic Surgical Associates and collectively these accomplished surgeons hold more than 60 years of combined experience in heart surgery. With decades of experience comes history, and as pioneering Marian Heart Center surgeons these three physicians have seen an evolution of cardiac care throughout their tenure.

“IT SEEMS LIKE YESTERDAY THAT WE CELEBRATED THE ADVENT OF THE MARIAN HEART CENTER,” REMEMBERS DR. FABER OF THE CENTER OPENING 22 YEARS AGO. Dr. Faber adds, “Today, Marian’s Heart Center survival rates and outcomes rank among the best in the nation. With record growth in recent years, it is essential that our program contiues to expand. We must continue to offer our patients the latest in advanced technology, breakthrough procedures, and new techniques.”

Instead of just encouraging the community to give towards the Marian Heart Center Expansion campaign, the physicians of Central Coast Cardiothoracic Surgical Associates decided to take their support a step further by pledging a major gift of $25,000 towards the project.

“We feel that patient care is paramount and in order for us to remain on the forefront of providing exceptional care we understand the critical need to build a Heart Center of the

future,” states Dr. Canvasser. “Pushing forward, surgery is headed towards less invasive procedures using more advanced technologies and facilities. As heart surgeons, it is important for us to do our part to ensure community members can remain on the Central Coast for advanced cardiac care.”

In July of 2014, Marian began construction on phase one of the Heart Center Expansion Project. Phase one of the project is on schedule to be completed in early 2015 and includes the addition of a new cardiac interventional hybrid suite.

Following phase one, construction will commence on a new cardiac catheterization laboratory with electrophysiology (EP) capabilities and a new modernized cardiac catheterization laboratory.

“Throughout the Marian Heart Center’s evolution, Central Coast Cardiothoracic Surgical Associates has maintained a great partnership with the medical center,” affirms Dr. Freyaldenhoven. “As partners in this shared vision, Marian leaders have supported our work as cardiac surgeons with access to cutting-edge technology and modern facilities. In turn, we see the value in also supporting the Heart Center’s expansion efforts as it will enable Marian to remain a leading provider for common and complex cardiac conditions.”

JON SOBLE, MD Making miracles happen

Jon Soble, MD

Jon Soble, MD, is both an experienced urologist at Marian Regional Medical Center and a cardiac patient who knows firsthand how the expertly trained health care professionals of Marian’s Heart Center have both the skill to heal and passion to care. The below message is an excerpt from Dr. Soble’s inspirational testimonial he shared with more than 400 attendees at Marian’s 2014 Annual Dinner on August 24, 2014.

It’s a great pleasure to be here, quite literally. Seven months ago today, January 24, 2014, for me was a most unusual day. A confluence of events came together that day, both good and bad, but none of which were supposed to have taken place.

Harrison found the short yet complete blockage in one of my heart’s arteries. They dilated it and stented it open.

Again, I was incredibly lucky. There’s a reason the type of heart attack I experienced is called a ‘widow maker,’ but because of the exceptional skills, the timing, and technology of Marian’s Heart Center and its team members, I was able to walk out of the medical center after just a few days. In fact, I returned to my practice the following week and was back to the operating room just one week after that.

My definition of a miracle is an event that occurs where the need is incredibly great, but the likelihood of the event is just as incredibly rare. And I profess to you that at Marian’s Heart Center they perform miracles like this every day.

I stand before you today to put the needs of Marian’s Heart Center Expansion front and center and to help give those needs a face and name. Luck favors the prepared. This aging population is expanding and we need this expansion so Marian’s Heart Center will always be equipped to perform miracles.

You see, on January 24, 2014, I died.

I always do surgeries at Marian on Wednesdays. However, this particular day was a Friday and I was in the operating room. I almost never schedule surgery in the medical center on Fridays.

I should have been seeing patients in my office that day, and if I was, I’d still be dead.

If you are interested in supporting the Marian Heart Center Expansion Project, please contact the Marian Foundation at 805.739.3595 to discuss the most advantageous way for you to get involved.

One minute I was in the operating room preparing for surgery, and the next I was down on the cold floor, dead as a doorknob, in full cardiac arrest.

I was found on the floor by one of Marian’s excellent surgical technicians, Gerard Gaudet. He kept me alive with chest compressions and called out a code. He also cracked a few ribs while he was at it, but I’m not complaining.

The Rapid Response Team was fortunately very rapid and very responsive. I was shocked twice which got my heart started. I was then rushed to the Heart Center’s cardiac catheterization laboratory where cardiologists Dr. Mark Ginkel and Dr. Alex

When most think of the medical professionals who make up a Heart Center team, they identify cardiologists, cardiac surgeons, and highly trained registered nurses who specialize in cardiac care. However, there is another group of physicians whose role is vital to the care of cardiac patients: anesthesiologists.

Anesthesia services at Marian Regional Medical Center are provided by Anesthesia Medical Group of Santa Maria, a group of 13 physicians who are devoted to ensuring patients’ comfort during all diagnostic, interventional, and surgical procedures at the medical center. As essential members of the cardiac care team, anesthesiologists at Marian have been involved in the planning of the Heart Center Expansion Project and due to their deep understanding of the expansion’s importance, physicians of Anesthesia Medical Group of Santa Maria collectively pledged a $25,000 gift in support of the Heart Center Expansion Project.

“With the new interventional electrophysiology program and an abundance of new cardiac procedures coming to the medical center, it is clear that medicine is marching forward at Marian,” states Theodore Burdumy, MD, MBA, Anesthesia Department Medical Director and Clinical Chair, Marian Regional Medical Center. “As physicians, we are proud to support the next era of advanced cardiac services. The

16

evolution of cardiac care is never ending and the visionary, brilliant aspect of the Heart Center Expansion design is that it is extremely well thought out, allowing for the ability to evolve as new technologies and procedures come to Marian.”

Just as cardiology services are growing, anesthesia services at Marian are also expanding beyond the walls of the medical center’s operating rooms to support developments in diagnostic and interventional care.

“Following my medical education and training, I returned to Santa Maria where I grew up and have family,” explains Nicholas Krier, MD, anesthesiologist. “Heart disease is the leading cause of death in the United States, and as both a physician and community member I believe it is imperative that our loved ones and entire community have access to the highest level of cardiac care for all heart conditions.”

In recognition of Anesthesia Medical Group of Santa Maria’s generous $25,000 gift, the Marian Heart Center’s new consultation room will be named in their honor.

Dr. Burdumy adds, “Our hope is the community recognizes Anesthesia Medical Group’s confidence in the Heart Center and in turn is inspired to support cardiac care and other programs at Marian.”

JIM GLINES Total knee replacement leads to total life enhancement

“I am delighted that I now have no pain in my right knee due to my orthopedic procedure at Marian, but I didn’t realize just how much the new hospital’s healing environment would make a positive impact in my recuperation,” explains Jim. “In past experiences, I always shared a room with another patient, that’s just how it was. Now, with the opening of Marian’s new hospital, having a private patient room makes a world of difference – I was incredibly comfortable and appreciated having privacy at a time when I was the most vulnerable.”

Jim Glines, Marian Regional Medical Center orthopedic patient and Community Bank of Santa Maria Chief Executive Officer, now enjoys a pain-free life following a second total knee replacement.

For Santa Maria native Jim Glines, living with pain is no way to live. Over the years, Jim’s active lifestyle of rodeo adventures and the great outdoors led to painful wear and tear on his knees.

With one total knee replacement under his belt for his left knee in 2009, ongoing pain in Jim’s right knee prompted him to again seek surgical relief.

As a volunteer Cornerstone Committee member, Jim worked alongside fellow community leaders to help raise the community dollars needed to build Marian’s new, 121bed, state-of-the-art hospital. Although Jim was aware that Marian’s new hospital featured private patient rooms in addition to the latest in advanced technology and expert medical professionals, he had no idea that his hospital stay would have a significant role in his recovery.

At Marian, physicians, nurses, and all medical professionals believe in providing patients and their family members with an optimal environment that promotes healing. This is why Marian’s new hospital was designed with comfort in mind, ensuring that those recovering from illness, treatment or surgical procedures benefit from healing elements such as natural light, breathtaking views, quiet spaces, and soothing color palettes to reduce stress and advance positive patient outcomes.

“When you can look out your window from your patient room and see a mountainside of our beautiful valley it really makes a difference,” adds Jim. Today, Jim lives pain-free, allowing him to continue serving as the Chief Executive Officer of Community Bank of Santa Maria and a dedicated community leader. In fact, under Jim’s leadership, Community Bank of Santa Maria raised nearly $2,000 from community donations for breast cancer awareness month in October 2014, benefiting Marian Cancer Care patients at Mission Hope Cancer Center.

Jim affirms, “Living in this region, we are all blessed to be supported by a generous, giving community. It is this unique level of community support which has allowed Marian to build a new hospital, and in turn our community has access to health care that is the best of the best.”

ACCU RACY THAT AI MS TO H EAL PET/CT Scanner at Mission Hope advances cancer detection while reducing radiation exposure

The Marian PET/CT Center at Mission Hope Cancer Center provides patients with access to one of the most powerful imaging breakthroughs to quickly and accurately diagnose and treat cancer – the Discovery PET/CT 600 scanner, manufactured by GE Healthcare.

Through the merging of two highly advanced imaging technologies, positron emission tomography (PET) and computer tomography (CT), patients’ anatomy and physiology are integrated into a single image. This sophisticated technology is a vital tool used by physicians and specialists to stage cancer that is already diagnosed, to assess a patient’s response to treatment, and to detect the recurrence of cancer.

The scanner’s PET imaging capability identifies cancerous lesions by detecting metabolic activity associated with cancer growth, while the CT technology pinpoints the exact location of the tumor. In addition to detecting lesions as small as 2.0 millimeters, the scanner also features advanced delineation, meaning both cancerous tumors and healthy tissue are clearly identified to safeguard patients from unnecessary radiation exposure.

18

“At the Marian PET/CT Center, patients are not only provided with world-class imaging services, they also receive personalized care and patients are known by name,” states Steven Sonnabend, MD, Medical Director, Marian Imaging Services.

“Although it is essential to provide our patients with the most advanced imaging capabilities, we also believe the care and service delivered is just as important. Often our patients are filled with anxiety, concerned about what might lead to a firsttime or recurrence cancer diagnosis. Our staff understands the fears our patients face and treat patients and their families with the dignity and respect they deserve.”

Another revolutionary aspect of the PET/CT scanner is its respiratory gating capabilities which allow technicians operating the technology to see exceptional details with clarity for moving body areas, such as the heart and lungs. By memorizing and overlaying cancerous lesions, the PET/CT scanner detects size and location changes over time, allowing the technology’s treatment planning software to integrate with Mission Hope Cancer Center’s TrueBeam Linear Accelerator for precise radiation therapy treatment.

Steven Sonnabend, MD, Medical Director, Marian Regional Medical Center Imaging Services, stands with the Marian PET/ CT Center’s Discovery PET/CT 600 scanner at Mission Hope Cancer Center. The Discovery PET/CT 600 scanner is one of the industry’s most powerful imaging breakthroughs to quickly and accurately diagnose and treat cancer.

ADVO CATI N G FO R TH E CAREG IVER Marian awarded Santa Barbara Foundation’s Caregiver Innovation grant

caregivers of medically fragile patients into the health and wellness delivery system in northern Santa Barbara County.

Once no longer marginalized, caregivers will be equal members of the health care team and stronger support for the caregiver will ultimately lead to better outcomes for patients.”

(Left to right) Kathleen Sullivan, PhD, RN, Vice President of Post Acute Care Services at Marian, poses for a photo with Ronald Gallo, Santa Barbara Foundation President and CEO, and Phylene Wiggins, Santa Barbara Foundation Community Investment Officer.

With more than 65 million Americans responsible for providing constant care for a parent, spouse, relative, or friend, caregivers are the backbone of the nation’s long-term care system.

For the Central Coast, the region’s long-term care system is projected to experience significant strain as life expectancy and rates of chronic diseases remain on the rise. In order to prepare local communities for the future, the Santa Barbara Foundation recently awarded Marian Regional Medical Center a $50,000 Caregiver Innovation Grant to conduct a needs assessment for long-term caregivers in northern Santa Barbara County.

It can be incredibly overwhelming for caregivers responsible for managing a loved one’s daily care, medical appointments, complex treatments, medications, and in-home medical equipment. Serving as a caregiver may also give rise to financial burdens associated with medical expenses and employment reductions. These stressors and more can often lead caregivers to exhaustion and depression.

Phylene Wiggins, Santa Barbara Foundation Community Investment Officer, explains, “Family caregiving is the long-term care safety net. As longevity increases and financial means decrease, the role of the caregiver becomes more critical and more challenging. Marian’s approach to embed the caregiver in the health care system while providing them with appropriate tools, education and social support is creative, compelling, and a game changer.”

The mission of the Santa Barbara Foundation is to enrich the lives of the people living in Santa Barbara County, and as such, the philanthropic community foundation is committed to investing in programs devoted to strategically solving critical community issues, while creating and maintaining vibrancy in the region.

The $50,000 Caregiver Innovation Grant from the Santa Barbara Foundation will provide Marian with the funding needed to conduct a comprehensive, evidenced based evaluation and assessment of the current network of services. As the first phase of the project, collecting evidenced based research will be instrumental in forming an implementation strategy for a comprehensive, turnkey caregiver program that other organizations can replicate. Current program plans are specific to caregivers of medically fragile patients such as those living with chronic disease.

“For patients requiring long-term care, numerous services exist to enhance their care, but very little is structured around the needs of caregivers who work tirelessly for extended periods of time,” states Kathleen Sullivan, PhD, RN, Vice President of Post Acute Care Services at Marian Regional Medical Center.

“The fundamental vision of this project is to successfully insert

Kathleen adds, “By defining caregivers as members of the health care team, and providing caregivers with access to respite care, navigation assistance with our health system, education, and a circle of support, caregivers are empowered and as a result have the support needed to deliver a more sustainable level of long-term care.”

ADVAN CI N G M ED I CAL ACAD EM IA Marian receives grant funding as a teaching hospital

In July of 2014, Marian Regional Medical Center celebrated a historic milestone as the Marian Family Medicine Residency Program welcomed its first class of physician residents.

In response to the growing national shortage of family medicine physicians, the medical center instituted the Marian Family Medicine Residency Program to build a strong primary care infrastructure for Santa Maria and the Central Coast. Since the worlds of education and medicine are continually evolving, Marian is committed to providing an inspiring, real world learning environment to produce the best possible health outcomes and to recruit and retain skilled physicians to the area.

As a regional, academic medical center, Marian is fortunate to have vital grant funding support from numerous philanthropic organizations who have become the medical center’s community partners in providing exceptional health care.

Weingart Foundation Marian Regional Medical Center is grateful for the recent $200,000 grant award from the Weingart Foundation. Grant funding will help support the Marian Family Medicine Residency Program’s startup costs, including training personnel, equipment, and renovations needed to create the required clinic training and teaching spaces.

The Weingart Foundation was established in 1951 by Ben and Stella Weingart, and is a private, nonprofit grantmaking foundation. In order to provide effective services in the areas of health, human services, and education, the Weingart Foundation awards grants and other support designed to improve the capacity and sustainability of nonprofit organizations.

The Weingart Foundation’s support of the Marian Family Medicine Residency Program is valued as the Foundation’s endorsement will be powerful in leveraging future funding for philanthropic program needs.

Hutton Parker Foundation

Hearst Foundations

Guided by the mission established by founder, Betty Hutton, the Hutton Parker Foundation primarily focuses on making grants to assist organizations that work in the areas of health and human services, arts and culture, children, youth and families, civic and community, and education. With a focus to provide greater access to people who are economically disadvantaged or underserved and improve the quality of life for all individuals in Santa Barbara County, the Hutton Parker Foundation recently gifted a $50,000 grant to the Marian Family Medicine Residency Program.

The Hearst Foundations identify and fund outstanding nonprofits to ensure that people of all backgrounds in the United States have the opportunity to build healthy, productive, and inspiring lives. As such, the Hearst Foundations awarded a generous $75,000 grant to the Marian Family Medicine Residency Program since they recognize the importance of funding programs designed to enhance skills and increase the number of practitioners and educators across roles in health care.

“The Hutton Parker Foundation strives to provide organizational sustainability to community-based nonprofit organizations and we are proud to support the Marian Family Medicine Residency Program’s effort to improve primary care access for Santa Barbara County residents, resulting in the best possible health outcomes and stronger, more efficient communities,” explains Pamela Lewis, Hutton Parker Foundation Executive Director.

Paul “Dino” Dinovitz, Hearst Foundations Executive Director, shares, “Grants toward efforts like the Family Medicine Residency Program at Marian Regional Medical Center are an example of our commitment to help leading medical centers respond to the country’s evolving needs. The Foundations seek to use their funds to create a broad and enduring impact on the nation’s health.”

EM BRACI N G D EATH TH RO U G H D I G N ITY Hospice volunteers serve as ‘angels’ for patients and families

Death is a difficult topic, a topic that makes many uncomfortable and is often avoided. But for Dignity Health Hospice volunteers Steve and Patty Lunn, death is embraced as part of the natural cycle of life.

Patty and Steve Lunn, Dignity Health Hospice volunteers

Whether it is fulfilling a household chore, delivering a meal, or just holding a hand, this husband and wife volunteer duo generously give of their time, energy, and compassion to support Dignity Health Hospice patients and their families throughout endof-life care.

“When my mom passed, I wasn’t there,” explains Steve.

“Besides birth, death is the most important time in one’s life.

And although I wasn’t present for my mom’s death, as a hospice volunteer I am able to be there to provide crucial support to those dying and families in need.”

In late 2013, Steve was searching for a new community volunteer opportunity and hadn’t yet found the right fit until he heard a radio interview about Dignity Health Hospice’s services for terminally-ill patients and their loved ones. The next day, Steve contacted Dignity Health Hospice and within a few short weeks began volunteering. Although Steve knew right away that serving as a hospice volunteer was his calling, Steve’s wife, Patty, didn’t expect to follow in her husband’s footsteps.

22

“At first I thought I couldn’t handle helping dying patients and their families – I thought it would just be too difficult,” shares Patty. “Steve showed me how volunteering at this meaningful time in individuals’ and families’ lives makes a real difference.

Now, I face my own mortality and am not afraid.”

Very quickly both Steve and Patty knew that their volunteerism was making a positive difference in the lives of the families they serve, but little did they know that their roles as hospice volunteers would soon have an impact on their immediate family.

Patty recounts, “Within just months of volunteering, my sister’s husband was placed on Dignity Health Hospice care as he neared the end of his battle with cancer. Throughout care for my brother-in-law I witnessed what a true blessing hospice care is. From pain management to nursing care, Dignity Health Hospice walked my family through the entire end-oflife process, and provided my sister with much-needed support when feeling exhausted and physically drained.”

Although it has only been one year since their start as Dignity Health Hospice volunteers, Steve and Patty can’t imagine doing anything more meaningful with their retirement than improving the quality of life for dying community members and comforting loved ones of hospice patients.

“Patients and families have called us their ‘angels,’ but in reality it’s a true honor to serve those in their final moments,” adds Steve. “We are the ones who are lucky, providing this sacred care is what makes us feel whole. Death is difficult, no matter the circumstance. As a volunteer, it makes a world of difference to have the strong support of the Dignity Health Hospice team and the inspiring encouragement of Volunteer Coordinator Christine Meugniot.”

If you are interested in joining the Dignity Health Hospice volunteer team, please call 805.739.3520, or if you would like to make a donation in support Dignity Health Hospice terminally-ill patients and families, please contact the Marian Foundation at 805.739.3595.

PH I LANTH RO PY TH RIVES AT MARIAN Circle of Friends 2014 Employee Giving Campaign makes history

Circle of Friends Employee Giving Campaign Co-Chairs and hospital leadership present special awards to employees for going above and beyond to make this year’s campaign a great success.

Left to right: Candice Monge, RN, MSN Director of Pediatrics, Mother Baby Care, and Nursery, Tanya Moreland, RN, BSN, Clinical Educator, Charles J. Cova, President and CEO, Rialda Grober, RN, MHA, Senior Director, Nursing Services/Maternal Child Health, Patricia Hernandez, LVN, Kerin Mase, RN, MBA, Executive Vice President/Chief Nursing Executive, Nory Sargeant, RN, Director Neonatal Intensive Care, and Connie DeLoza, Environmental Services Secretary.

Each and every day, employees at Marian continue to be touched by the patients and families they serve and witness the firsthand impact of philanthropy. As such, employees believe in the healing work that takes place at Marian and offered their strong support for the 2014 Circle of Friends Employee Giving Campaign by raising the highest total contributions from any employee campaign in the hospital’s history.

Within only a six-week period, between October 6 and November 14, 2014, more than 760 Marian employees, 44% of the entire organization’s workforce, collectively donated more than $200,000 – far surpassing the campaign’s goal of $190,000.

“As evidenced by the success of the recent Circle of Friends Employee Giving Campaign at Marian Regional Medical Center, the spirit of philanthropy is alive and well,” explains Stephanie Grogan, Vice President of Philanthropy at Marian.

“We are incredibly grateful to our family of Marian employees who not only give of themselves in service to Marian patients and families, but also go above and beyond to make personal gifts in support of the programs and services they champion.”

24

The Circle of Friends Employee Giving Program benefits both medical center programs and the Friendship Fund which provides invaluable support to Marian employees during difficult times or hardship.

FOR OUR EMPLOYEES, WORKING AT MARIAN REGIONAL MEDICAL CENTER ISN’T JUST A JOB, IT’S A CALLING. Although the Circle of Friends Employee Giving Campaign has successfully concluded, there are still opportunities to further the medical center’s healing work. Every contribution, regardless of size, makes a difference in the lives of Marian patients, families, and the community at large.

To join the Circle of Friends Employee Giving Program or to make a community donation, please contact the Marian Foundation at 805.739.3595.

JAM ES AN D SAN D RA KITAGAWA Employees furthering the healing power

Between 2013 and 2014 Marian Regional Medical Center employees James and Sandra Kitagawa were grieving the loss of not one, not two, but three close family members.

“My wife’s grandmother passed, then her uncle and her mother passed within only an 18-month period,” remembers James. “It was a very difficult time for our family and to make matters worse, our extended family lives on the East Coast, making it financially straining to accommodate our family’s immediate travel needs.”

Fortunately for the Kitagawa family, Marian employees established the Friendship Fund to provide fellow employees going through times of hardship with invaluable financial assistance. Through Marian’s Friendship Fund the Kitagawas were provided with the support needed to allow Sandra to travel to North Carolina to grieve with her loved ones and attend her family members’ funerals. As recipients themselves, James and Sandra are strong Circle of Friends supporters, joining more than 700 of their fellow employees by giving personal contributions towards the recent campaign.

Marian Regional Medical Center employees James and Sandra Kitagawa have not only benefited from the hospital’s Friendship Fund, they are also Circle of Friends Employee Giving Campaign contributors.

“We are so grateful for the support we received,” adds Sandra.

“I can’t imagine what would have happened if I wasn’t able to spend this crucial time with my family, essential for grieving and healing. We know just how vital this type of support is to those in need – both patients and employees – and we are proud to support this very worthy cause.”

PROVI D I N G FO R TH E FUTU RE Planned Giving Committee furthers community philanthropic opportunities

Philanthropy has long played a critical role in the history of Marian Regional Medical Center and plays an even larger role today than ever before.

The Planned Giving Committee, established under the leadership of the Marian Foundation, was recently formed to provide greater emphasis on gift planning efforts as planned gifts create a path to the acquisition of technological advancements, implementation of breakthrough medical procedures, and the creation of new programs. With a focus of increasing awareness of the medical center’s unique needs for planned giving initiatives, this newly formed committee works to further opportunities of structured or deferred gifts, such as bequests, charitable gift annuities, real estate donations, and beneficiary assignments of life insurance policies, retirement accounts, or charitable trusts.

Marian’s Planned Giving Committee consists of community members, along with Marian Foundation leaders, and is chaired

by Laura Hoffman-King, Esq., an experienced Santa Maria attorney focusing in estate planning and probate legal processes.

All committee members obtain professional experience in important aspects of planned giving and are personally committed to advancing Marian’s mission of wellness, health, and healing.

“As Chair, my hope for the Planned Giving Committee is to cultivate meaningful gifts for Marian Regional Medical Center through lending committee members’ insights and professional expertise,” explains Laura. “Many are not aware of how easy it is to transfer wealth and our goal is to seek outreach opportunities to share the good news of Marian’s very worthy programs and services. By supporting the medical center’s needs, we have the ability to elevate health care, making a positive impact in the lives of all community members.”
