from the CEO
Checking our pulse —
both here and in our community
Improving the health of the community is central to our mission as a
nonprofit health-care provider. For us, that means being here for patients
in times of illness. But it’s also about helping people stay healthy and manage chronic conditions.
We promote wellness and prevention in the community through many
different partnerships and initiatives. One that I’m especially proud of is a
unique partnership between Swedish and the Northwest African American
Museum. Together, we are working to inform the local African-American
community about five diseases that disproportionately affect this population: breast cancer, diabetes,
heart disease, HIV/AIDS, and premature and lowweight births.
In collaboration with our team and with support
from other sponsors, the museum has developed a
compelling interactive exhibit, “Checking our Pulse”,
that helps drive home the need to prevent and/or
manage these types of conditions. It also includes
a history of African-American physicians and healthcare professionals in Seattle, including Swedish’s chief medical officer
John Vassall, M.D., and breast surgeon Pat Dawson, M.D., Ph.D. By sharing
this history, we hope to inspire local African-American youths to pursue
medicine and health-care as a profession.
It’s an important exhibit that’s received excellent reviews. I encourage
all of you to take the time to see and experience it. You can find details at
the museum’s web site, www.naamnw.org. It runs now through June.
One of the conditions highlighted in the exhibit is heart disease. Though
it disproportionately affects African Americans, it’s something everyone in
our community needs to be aware of. Heart disease is the No. 1 killer in
the United States, with more than 1.1 million Americans suffering heart
attacks each year.
The Swedish Heart & Vascular Institute is dedicated to the treatment
and research of heart disease and has assembled a team of renowned cardiologists and cardiac surgeons to serve people facing the condition. The
team is advancing a number of important initiatives, including a collective
effort to develop a comprehensive program for managing heart failure.
You can read more about the Swedish Heart & Vascular Institute in
this issue of IMPACT.
Our work would not be possible without donations from private individuals, foundations and corporate partners throughout the region. As
you’ll see on the pages that follow, we received significant support from the
community in the year that just ended. Knowing all of you are behind us
is inspiring and motivates us to continue our efforts to serve the community.
On behalf of everyone at Swedish, thank you for your support and commitment to our nonprofit mission.
Warmest regards,
Rod Hochman, M.D.

viders participate in this school-based
health program. Ballard High School was
a natural fit for Swedish due to its proximity to the Swedish/Ballard campus as
well as Swedish’s established ties to the
Ballard community.
School-based medical care helps students avoid health-related absences and
get support to succeed in the classroom.
“This is just one of the ways that Swedish
assists people of all ages in our community,
as well as encourages teens to take ownership of their health,” says Sara Rigel,
manager of Patient/Family Education and
Community Health, whose department
oversees the Ballard Teen Health Center.
During the 2009-2010 school year,
the center had more than 2,300 visits
(both mental health and primary care).
It has been such a success that Rigel hopes
to develop similar programs at other
high schools. i

1984 in the garages of two Seattle
best friends — Jay Deutsch and Eric
Bensussen — out of a common passion
for sports, the company is now 500 associates strong with 27 locations worldwide. The nation’s leading Merchandise
Agency™, BDA helps Fortune 500 clients
engage consumers on a 1-to-1 level through
creative branded merchandise.
It wasn’t just a shared passion for sports
that brought these two childhood friends
together: They also shared the unlikely
coincidence and connection of having
families touched by ovarian cancer. And
years later, they have transformed their
losses into a company-wide passion for
giving back to the community.
For 12 consecutive years, BDA has been
a leading sponsor of the Swedish SummeRun,
which benefits the Marsha Rivkin Center
for Ovarian Cancer Research. “Our company’s dedication to Swedish and the
Rivkin Center stems from both Eric and my
personal experiences,” says Deutsch. “But,
the energy and generosity truly comes
from the entire staff at BDA.”
Each year, BDA employees from across
the country participate in a company
fundraiser, affectionately named Spring
Fling. Creative events are held over a
two-week period, including barbecues,
dunk-tank challenges, silent auctions,
talent shows and a staff Olympics. “We
really have fun with it,” says Deutsch. “At
the same time, we engage our associates,
vendors, friends and family in a very important cause.” To date, BDA has raised more
than $600,000 for the SummeRun and
ovarian cancer research.
“Symptoms of this devastating disease are just simple aches and pains. Many
women don’t know they have it until it’s
too late,” says Bensussen. “Jay and I both
experienced that unfortunate circumstance
first-hand, and are doing our part to make
sure others won’t have to live through it.
Research is making a difference. People
who give are helping survivors and their
families every day.”
“BDA is a role model of corporate
citizenship,” says Clint Burwell, executive
director of the Rivkin Center. “Their commitment to the eradication of ovarian cancer
is without peer in our region’s corporate
community.”
BDA’s growth has been organic, enabling
the company to maintain its distinct spirit
of originality and inventiveness.
“Through creative power and leadership, BDA continues to open new doors
and blaze new trails,” Bensussen says.
“We know the Rivkin Center reflects that
same vision, and the research they promote
will also blaze new trails in ovarian cancer
treatment and early detection.” i

Thanks to the care he received at the Swedish
Heart & Vascular Institute, musician
Ron Herring once again sings
with a happy heart.
When you think of winter in Seattle, it doesn’t typically elicit
images of balmy days spent on the beach. Unless, of course, you
happen to be at Bahama Breeze in Tukwila, listening to the cool
sounds of Ron Herring. At age 63, he performs the kind of music
that makes you smile: Covers of upbeat songs, for which he sings
vocals and plays guitar, that conjure sunny days and tropical
isles — think “Girl from Ipanema,” “Mambo No. 5” and any number
of Jimmy Buffett tunes. With his buoyant melodies, penchant for
aloha shirts and Panama hats, and happy-go-lucky attitude, he
looks and acts like a guy who’s happy to be alive.

RISING STARS:
Herring, who lives in Burien, describes
the onset of his symptoms this way: “I felt
a tightness in my chest for a while, and
I felt like I had the flu.” When he didn’t
feel better after a few weeks, and also
noticed that his complexion had taken on
a grayish hue, he made an appointment
with his general practitioner for a checkup.
His doctor was sufficiently worried to
send him for an EKG, after which he was
informed: “You’ve had a heart attack,
and you’re in danger.”
Herring recalls, “They told me that one
of my coronary arteries was totally closed
and another two arteries were 90 percent
closed.” He doesn’t remember much after
hearing these frightening words — only
that his doctors had him rushed to Swedish
Medical Center on Cherry Hill in Seattle
for further evaluation and treatment.
At Swedish, Herring’s future hung in
the balance as doctors decided whether
to perform a risky heart-bypass surgery
or pursue less-invasive measures. If he
survived bypass surgery, doctors told him,
he would probably be a candidate for a
heart transplant. He received the best news
he could imagine after being examined by
Mark Reisman, M.D., a Swedish cardiologist and chief scientific officer. Dr.
Reisman told him, “I think I can save you.”
Under Dr. Reisman’s care, Herring’s
condition was stabilized with the help of
blood thinners, and plans were made
to perform angioplasty —
a procedure
designed to
enlarge a
narrowing
in a coronary artery
via tubes inserted to
help keep it open, allowing the normal flow
of blood and
oxygen to the
heart. He had a
stent inserted into each
of the three blocked arteries in procedures
performed by Dr. Reisman and his
colleague, Amish Desai, M.D. — during

admitted each year with a primary diagnosis of heart failure, and it is a secondary

executive director of the Swedish Heart &
Vascular Institute. “The terminology —

day — Herring’s recovery was, in his
words, “miraculous.” Five years after his
health scare, he says, “I’m as healthy as
a hog. And I wouldn’t be here without
the world-class team at Swedish.”
Remarks Dr. Reisman, “Ron — who
may not have survived us opening up
his chest for surgery — had a remarkable
recovery. This story is a testament to the
whole cardiovascular team, especially the
nurses. He had a great support system
and he’s doing great five years later.”
The heart failure epidemic
In the parlance of practitioners,
Herring’s episode was classified as
“congestive heart failure” — a condition
in which the heart is unable to pump
enough blood to meet the needs of the
body, and a common and often-deadly
form of heart disease.
Heart failure is a major health concern
in the United States, affecting more than
five million people, about 40,000 of whom
live in the Seattle metropolitan area. And
its incidence rates are rising due to an
aging population and widespread, unhealthy lifestyle factors that contribute
to the disease. At Swedish Medical
‘heart failure’ — is scary for patients to
hear, but this is the term we use to describe
what they have. There’s a severity and
a gravity to it. And it is a big deal — it
affects a lot of people and lives.”
Heart failure is generally classified in
one of two ways: as either “chronic” or
“acute.” Chronic heart failure is a condition that is present in a patient for a long
period of time and is not immediately
life threatening. While chronic heart
failure often becomes more serious over
time, it can often be treated and stabilized
through medications and lifestyle changes,
such as exercise, weight control, quitting
smoking and dietary changes, including
a reduced-salt diet. It is occasionally
treated with invasive or minimally
invasive procedures, such as surgeries
or implantation of devices that help the
heart to pump sufficient blood.
Acute heart failure — the form of
the disease suffered by Herring — is
more serious, characterized by the sudden
onset of multiple, life-threatening symptoms resulting from major disruption of
the heart’s functioning, due to a heart
attack, trauma or some other cause.
This condition can require immediate
hospitalization, intensive care, multiple
pharmacological and surgical interventions, surgical implementation of devices,
or heart-transplantation surgery, in
order to restore patients to a condition in
which sufficient blood is pumped to their
bodies. When these patients are stabilized, the goal of the care-giving team is to
help them return to a normal way of life.
Experts have found that treating both
types of heart failure successfully requires
regular and ongoing medical care —
often over many years — to manage the
disease via drugs and lifestyle changes,
and to track its progress.
“It’s not like treating a case where the
patient drops a hammer and breaks his
toe, gets a splint and get better,” says
Dr. Lewis. “Treating heart failure is much
more complex and longitudinal. There’s
a lot more context in how we need to
successfully care for these patients.”
The availability of a comprehensive
center that specifically addresses and
coordinates all treatment aspects for
heart-failure patients — ranging from
relatively healthy individuals recently
identified as at risk for the disease to
those with end-stage heart failure — is
vital for these patients’ recovery, says
Dr. Lewis. This multi-disciplinary
approach requires a team of caregivers —
which might include family practice
physicians, cardiac specialists, heart
surgeons and experienced nurse practitioners specializing in the disease —
who collaborate to treat and manage
every aspect of their patients’ cases for
a seamless continuum of care.
“It’s all about providing a meaningful
outcome for patients,” says Lewis.
A comprehensive
heart failure center at Swedish
As part of supporting Swedish’s
mission to provide compassionate, highquality care to patients, a Comprehensive
Heart Failure Center is being developed
at its Cherry Hill campus, which will be
a major part of the existing Swedish
Heart & Vascular Institute. The Center
will be located in a 7,000-square-foot space
on the fourth floor of the James (cont.)
Upholding a lonstanding tradition
of research
Since 1996, the Swedish Research Center — which has an 85-member staff,
including Mark Reisman, M.D., the Center’s chief scientific officer — has been
a critical component of Swedish Medical Center. Swedish’s research activities
focus on clinical — or “translational” — research
that often has an immediate and direct benefit on a
patient’s outcome.
As the largest health care provider in the Puget
Sound region, Swedish has long been focused on
providing physicians and staff with access to, and
expertise in, using the most advanced medical technologies, treatments, devices and equipment. At any
given time, more than 600 research projects are underway at Swedish in several areas, which rely heavily Mark Reisman, M.D., Swedish’s
on clinical trials to test the safety and effectiveness of chief scientific officer.
new treatments, drugs and medical devices. Swedish is an ideal place for this,
due to its large patient base and experienced physician-researchers and researchsupport staff.
Breakthroughs in cardiovascular medicine
As the most common cause of death and disability in the United States, cardiovascular disease is an important area of research. Diseases of the heart and vascular
system result in 900,000 deaths, and many more disabling conditions, each year,
affecting nearly one in four Americans. Research of cardiovascular illnesses have,
in recent decades, led to improved survival rates and quality of life for patients, due
to advanced technologies and better understanding of the cardiovascular system.
The Swedish Cardiovascular Research department makes it possible for
Swedish Heart & Vascular Institute (SHVI) patients and physicians, many of
whom are national leaders in their specialties, to participate in drug and device
studies — including investigational treatments only available in a research
environment — that provide more options for treating cardiovascular conditions.
In the last three years, the number of physicians involved in research at the Institute
has doubled. Currently, a number of cardiovascular studies and clinical trials are
being conducted at SHVI, including those in the rapidly developing field of structural heart disease, an area of research in which the Institute is a national leader.
Rising Stars
Swedish’s cardiovascular researchers have a new source of support, thanks
to SHVI’s Rising Stars Clinical Research program. The program was established
thanks to a generous $1 million gift from Joe Clark, CEO of Aviation Partners,
and longtime friend and associate of John L. Petersen, M.D. The goal of Rising
Stars is to significantly increase the Institute’s cardiovascular clinical-research activities. It provides funding to select physician-researchers, allowing them to participate
in and initiate innovative research projects while also maintaining active practices.
“Participants will have an opportunity for designated time in the research
environment,” says John L. Petersen II, M.D., director of cardiovascular research
at the Swedish Heart & Vascular Institute, and chief medical officer for the Seattle
Science Foundation. “With this protected time, they’ll be more dedicated to
pursue their research activities.”
Rising Stars is conducted by Swedish’s Cardiovascular Research department,
which considers factors including the overall benefit the research would provide
to patients in selecting funding recipients. Solicitation of applications for the
program’s support is currently underway, with the first round of Rising Stars to
be selected in the near future.

The new Center will integrate the
activities of all Swedish caregivers, as well
as those of affiliated caregivers who treat
chronic and acute heart failure — such
as primary-care physicians, emergencydepartment staffs, nurses and nurse
practitioners, home-care staffs, hospitalists,
cardiologist and cardiovascular surgeons —
at regional hospitals and clinics who
treat heart failure. By overseeing all of a
patient’s needs — including inpatient,
outpatient and emergency care — Swedish
hopes to improve outcomes for heartfailure patients, while also lowering costs
by managing patients’ cases more effectively. Other goals for the Center include:
– Reducing mortality and re-hospitalization rates for patients with acute heart
failure by providing them with access to
a full range of surgical, cardiologic and
pharmacological treatments, including surgical implantation of ventricle-assist devices,
a type of implanted mechanical pump.
– Working closely with Swedish
emergency-department teams to develop
and implement the best practices for
identifying and treating emergent cases
of acute heart failure. This emphasis will
include technology upgrades and procedural changes aimed at reducing the
time needed to assess and treat critical
cardiovascular patients upon arrival at
the emergency department.
– Developing an expanded heart-failure

research program (see sidebar on page 9).
– Facilitating access to heart-transplantation surgery at other regional centers,
including assisting with qualification
of potential recipients, donor matching
and administration of waiting lists.
In addition, the new Center will offer
comprehensive heart failure related education designed to improve patients’
quality of life by encouraging them to
become active partners in treating their
disease. This education component will
address many different lifestyle and health
factors by incorporating pharmacists,
social-service workers, psychologists,
dieticians, weight-management specialists
and sleep-disorder specialists, among
other health-care professionals. It will also
include a Swedish Heart & Vascular
Institute-specific web site, developed and
maintained to provide ready online access
to materials related to heart failure.
“Providing education — not only
to patients, but to their families and to
the greater community — is key,” says
Dr. Lewis. “Patients and others need to
have access to the great informationtechnology resources available, and to
information that is coherent, intelligent
and responsible. It should be a message
they can read and reread after they talk
to their doctors. This is one of the ways
that doctors can continue to share in the
education process.”
A search is ongoing for a nationally
prominent medical director to oversee the
Comprehensive Heart Failure Center —
an individual who will be integral in
helping it take shape, implementing training programs for existing staff, and
recruiting additional specialists and
researchers. A new surgical director will
also be added to the team, under whose
leadership the Center will be able to deliver
an expanded range of advanced surgical
and invasive cardiology treatments.
Other components of the Comprehensive Heart Failure Center are expected
to include an enhanced cardiologic
intensive-care unit for heart failure patients,
a short-stay unit for patients, and coordination of training activities with the
Seattle Science Foundation (SSF), an
independent organization, located on
Swedish’s Cherry Hill campus, that
works closely with the Swedish Heart
& Vascular Institute on a number of
activities. SSF’s state-of-the-art conferencing capabilities will be an important
tool for both internal and external training activities, and will support the new
Center as it becomes a key resource in
improving heart failure care throughout
the Pacific Northwest.
Generous gifts
that make a difference
Of course, the Comprehensive Heart
Failure Center wouldn’t be possible without the contributions of donors, including
the John L. Locke Jr. Charitable Trust,
which in May 2010 donated $1.5 million
to the Swedish Heart & Vascular Institute to support the creation of the Heart
Failure Center.
“The addition of a Comprehensive
Heart Failure Center will help bring
a full spectrum of cardiovascular care
to our community,” says Lida Buckner,
secretary of the John L. Locke Jr. Charitable Trust. “The Center is logical — a
single place where all of the caregivers
and resources will be focused on efficiently
providing the full spectrum of heartfailure patients with the best-available
treatments for their disease.”
When the Center is completed, the
heart-failure patients in our region will
have a more-promising chance of receiving successful outcomes, such as Ron
Herring’s.
“I feel fabulous now — a thousand
times better than I did five years ago,”
says Herring. “I’m lucky to
be alive, and it’s all thanks
to the wonderful care I
received.” i

I M P A C T W I N T E R 2 011
t the Swedish Foundation, we are
lucky to have many devoted volunteers who give generously of their time
throughout the year. Volunteers fill various
roles, from serving on event committees,
to procuring auction items for Celebrate
Swedish, to passing out water to Swedish
SummeRun participants. In this issue of
IMPACT, we are proud to introduce you
to one of our outstanding volunteers and
Summit Club members, Gerda Wirz.
Gerda, who was born in Switzerland,
came to Seattle in 1958 with her husband,
Jean-Pierre, when he accepted an engineering position at Boeing. Gerda and
Jean-Pierre shared a passion for flying,
and it was this passion that led her to
purchase a flight school and an accompanying charter airplane business, Fancher
Flyways. She later ran her own three-office
travel agency and helped with her husband’s business ventures after he retired
from Boeing.
In the mid 1990’s Gerda and Jean-Pierre
became Summit Club members at Swedish,
in part because of the excellent care JeanPierre received here while being treated
for cancer. Over the years, her growing
appreciation for Swedish and its importance in people’s lives led her to become
an active participant on several Foundation boards and committees, including
the Women’s Advisory Board, the Summit
Club Advisory Board, and the Celebrate
Swedish gala Committee. She says her
work for Swedish is a lot like her business
activities, “although, it’s not a business
at all — it’s personal.”
It is that personal connection that
makes Gerda so special to the Swedish
Thankfully, volunteer Gerda Wirz has no plans to slow down; she’s a beloved part of the Foundation family.
Foundation. “Gerda is not only a great
volunteer but a wonderful person, and it
has been a pleasure to work with her over
the years,” says Gwen Colwell, gift clubs
and annual giving manager. “She really
cares about Swedish, and she works so
hard to be sure that we are able to provide the highest quality of care we can
to our patients.”
In recognition of her outstanding contributions as a Swedish volunteer, Gerda
was awarded the Elmer J. Nordstrom
Distinguished Service Award in 2001.
Jennifer Nolte, the Foundation’s stewardship manager, is especially grateful to
Gerda for her willingness to gladly donate
so much time and support to Swedish:
“Gerda is a great resource. She has a busy
and full life, but is somehow always ready
and willing to reach out to us with ideas
and energy.”
At age 76, Gerda has no plans to slow
down. She has many friends in the community and enjoys visiting with relatives
in Switzerland, her two adult children
and her grandson, with whom she speaks
her native French and German. In the 20
years she has partnered with Swedish, her
dedication and generosity have remained
a constant. “I want to do this work so
others can have a quality medical experience,” she says. “It’s a joy to do it.”
And it’s a joy for us to know Gerda.
Swedish thanks her — and all of our volunteers — for all that they do for us and
for the patients and families we serve. i

LEGACY
Make an
impact
from the FOUNDATION
McGinty estate gift improves
cancer care
Grateful patient loses his own battle, but leaves legacy for others.
Your current or future gift will help
Swedish continue to provide patients
with the technology, equipment and
resources needed to turn the latest
medical research into outstanding
patient care. If you would like more
information on how to support Swedish
Medical Center through your estate
or a life income arrangement, please
contact Lindsay Hopkins, planned
giving manager, at (206) 386-2751
or visit www.swedishfoundation.org/
plannedgiving.
Since the Swedish Cancer Institute (SCI) first opened its doors in 1932, it has worked
to balance advanced technology and treatments with thoughtful, compassionate patient
care — and generous community
support plays a vital role.
“Each gift, whether it’s $50, $5,000,
or $50,000 has a profound impact
on our programs and patients,” says
Don Theophilus, executive director
of Swedish Medical Center Foundation. “Many people give because
their lives were somehow impacted The Swedish Cancer Institute has touched thousands of lives.
by cancer and they want to assist future patients. That is philanthropy at its core.”
A recent example of a grateful patient and a true philanthropist is Brian McGinty.
Brian ultimately lost his fight against cancer, but during treatment he recognized how
philanthropy could contribute to better care for all cancer patients. He was grateful to his
team of doctors and nurses, and made provisions for SCI in his estate plans.
“When Brian chose to make an estate gift to SCI, it was obvious that the care he
received played an important role in his decision,” says Theophilus. “It is also a testament to Brian’s compassionate character. Brian recognized that community support is
critical to changing outcomes for future patients, and that will be his legacy.”
Swedish thanks its many generous donors, including Brian, for their investment in
the future health of our community. i
Unrestricted gifts fund critical needs at Swedish
Departments apply for grants to aid patient care and support.
E
ach year, many generous donors from
our community make unrestricted
gifts to Swedish — those which are
directed towards the “greatest need of the
institution.”
Through a program called Philanthropy
at Work, departments at Swedish are invited
to apply for a grant each spring and fall so
that these unrestricted dollars are put back
into direct patient care and support. Following are just a few examples of recently
funded grants:
• Patients suffering from delirium have
been shown to have a mortality rate similar to patients with heart attacks. Research has shown that one of the ways
delirium can be minimized is to have family members present who can comfort and
re-orient patients to time and place, especially during the night when the condition
often worsens. A grant to support a pilot
project on delirium management has allowed
the purchase of six portable, folding cots
14
I M P A C T W I N T E R 2 011
for family members to stay the night with
patients who need their support.
• Due to Swedish’s expansion of freestanding emergency departments, there is
an increasing need to recruit and retain
A Philanthropy at Work grant will

highly skilled nurses. The Emergency Nursing Association authorized an e-learning
course for both new and experienced ER
nurses, and a grant requested by all emergency department managers (Mill Creek,
Ballard, First Hill, Cherry Hill, Redmond
and Issaquah) will enable their nurses
participate in the education, ensuring our
caregivers have the most up-to-date training and education.
• The Swedish Central Seattle Clinic
relies on ultrasound technology nearly
every day, all at a huge and avoidable cost.
Thanks to philanthropy, a small, portable
ultrasound machine was purchased, giving
patients access to many important services
at a fraction of the price, while improving
both the efficiency and quality of the care
currently provided.
Because Swedish is a nonprofit medical
center, unrestricted contributions are instrumental in ensuring our ability to deliver
world-class facilities, technology and
care to our patients. For more information about how you can make a gift to
Swedish, please contact the Foundation
by visiting www.swedishfoundation.org
or call (206) 386-2738. i
2010 was another extraordinary year for our Foundation, our fourth record-breaking year in a row for
philanthropic support. Over the twelve months of
Swedish’s centennial year, we received more than $19.7
million in gifts from donors who understand how
important this great institution is to our community.
This total — which includes over $350,000 from fundraising efforts at Swedish/Edmonds, the former Stevens
Hospital in Edmonds which joined Swedish in September —
represents a 12.9% increase over our 2009 total. Equally
exciting was the fact that, at year’s end, we had raised
over $70 million toward our $100 million, multi-year goal for the Campaign
for Swedish.
The credit for making 2010 such a banner year at Swedish Medical Center
goes to you, our loyal and generous donors, volunteers, board members and
friends. Each of us at the Foundation thanks you for your gifts of time and
money, and for all that you do to make Swedish a better place. The following
pages acknowledge this generosity, but the real legacy of your giving lies in the
lives touched, the equipment, buildings and programs you have made possible, and in the part you play in continuing Swedish’s century-old tradition
of providing world-class facilities to world-class caregivers whose skills will
benefit future generations of patients and families in our community.
Some of these donor-supported innovations at Swedish, including a new
Comprehensive Heart Failure Center at the Swedish Heart & Vascular Institute,
and some of the donors, caregivers and leaders who have made them possible,
are described in this issue of IMPACT. I hope, as you read about these accomplishments, you share the pride I feel in Swedish and in the donors, caregivers
and leaders who contribute in so many ways to make this a great medical center.
A new year has started, and new goals and challenges lie before us, including
our continued efforts towards completing our $100 million Campaign. I am
confident that, in the months and years ahead, your support for Swedish will
remain as strong and as inspiring as it was last year. On behalf of everyone at
the Foundation and all of the people who work at Swedish Medical Center,
thank you once again for your continuing generosity and support.
Sincerely,
On the pages that follow,
we gratefully acknowledge
the thousands of corporate
and individual donors who
gave so generously to
Swedish Medical Center in
2010. Thanks to each of you,
we are able to continue the
goal of making Swedish the
leading health care delivery
system in the region.
Our heartfelt thanks to you,
our partners.

Swedish Visiting Nurse Services brings expert medical care into the home.
Swedish Visiting
Nurse Services
Swedish Visiting Nurse Services (SVNS) provides care
and comfort to people from all walks of life in a variety of
circumstances, whether it involves assistance recovering from
surgery or a medical ailment, help coping with a life limiting
illness, or learning how to manage the aging process.
SVNS relies on community partnerships to offer a broad
range of services to home health and hospice patients, their
families, and caregivers. Gifts to the Campaign for Swedish
directed to SVNS provide care to those with no insurance;
transitional support to those electing to receive hospice care;
grief support groups and counseling for patients and their
families; as well as comfort therapies, including massage
and music, to relieve patients’ pain and anxiety.
“We would not be able to serve the community as broadly
and effectively as we do without the support from donors,”
says Jon Younger, M.D., medical director of SVNS.
Tribute, memorial and estate gifts are particularly meaningful because they are typically made in gratitude for care
received. A recent gift from the estate of JoAnn Anderson,
for example, has allowed SVNS to plan for the provision
of remote care technology by physicians and staff. Remote
care is an effective way for patients to give needed information to providers on a daily basis without the patient having
to go to the hospital or other facilities.
“We are so appreciative when people make gifts to SVNS,”
Dr. Younger says. “Not only does it show that we have done
our job in providing patient-centered care, but these gifts
allow us to provide care and comfort for future patients
and their families.”

Swedish employees contributed
a record amount to the
2010 Swedish Fund Drive.
Employees
support
2010 Swedish
Fund Drive
Hundreds of employees
joined together for the 2010
Swedish Fund Drive, raising
over $310,000 to support
programs and select projects
around Swedish. CEO Rod
Hochman, M.D., was inspired by the success of the
Fund Drive: “Employee giving is a great way to show
the community how much
our own staff believes in
our mission, especially as
we celebrate a century of
service to the community,
and the public launch of
the Campaign for Swedish.
It is truly an honor to work
with so many talented and
generous employees.”
Swedish employees also
give back in a variety of ways
outside the Fund Drive —
from forming fundraising
teams and participating in
the Swedish SummeRun, to
volunteering at the Celebrate
Swedish gala, Swedish Medical Center Foundation would
like to thank all Swedish
employees for their generous and dedicated support
in 2010.

Eric Bensussen (event co-chair), Joe White and Craig, Eddie and Rod
Fisher at the 2010 Fisher Family & Friends Auction.
Annual Fisher auction
and golf events set
records for Rivkin Center
The 2010 Fisher Family & Friends Auction & Golf Invitational, lead by auction co-chairs Eric and Gloria Bensussen,
and golf event co-chairs Craig and Rod Fisher, set a new record
by raising a combined total of over $1.1 million for the Marsha
Rivkin Center for Ovarian Cancer Research.
Golfers enjoyed spectacular weather in a “Ryder’s Cup”
style tournament on August 15th at the Redmond Ridge Golf
Club. Barrier Motors offered a “hole-in-one” prize opportunity
to win a new Mercedes Benz or Audi, and Outback Steakhouse provided a fantastic meal following the tournament.
On November 5th, over 500 guests attended the dinner
and auction event at the Hyatt Regency Bellevue. A variety
of prizes were presented to bidders, including Super Bowl XLV
tickets, a trip to New York Fashion Week, tickets to the PGA
Masters Tournament at the Augusta National Golf Club, and
a walk-on role in the 5th Avenue production of Guys and Dolls.
The evening also paid special tribute to two remarkable
ovarian cancer survivors and recipients of the 2010 Courage
for Life Award: Cynthia “C.J.” Taylor, founder and former
executive director of the Puget Sound Affiliate of Susan G.
Komen for the Cure; and Nicole Urban, M.D., worldrenowned ovarian cancer researcher at the Fred Hutchinson
Cancer Center.
“We cannot thank everyone enough for their incredible
passion and commitment to the Rivkin Center. We hope that
each of the participants share in our excitement and take
pride in these record-breaking accomplishments,” say auction
co-chairs Eric and Gloria Bensussen.
A special thank you to generous lead sponsors, including
BDA, Kaye-Smith, Lytle Enterprises, MCM, and Seattle Sun Tan.
