Considine FROM THE PRESIDENT Dear friends, The past year was a remarkable one for our Akron Children’s Hospital family as we extended our mission of caring to even more children throughout the region. To illustrate some of these new partnerships, this year’s annual report invites you to “Walk a Day in Our Shoes,” by hearing from some of the special caregivers who work in these locations. We know you’ll be as inspired as we are to see how our mission is being lived out every day in these new areas. One of our new relationships is with Summa Health System to manage the Special Care Nursery at Akron City Hospital. We also signed an important affiliation agreement with MetroHealth System to provide pediatric specialty care in Cleveland. Our CARE Center added services and staff with federal stimulus funds for victims of child abuse. On the Akron campus, we opened a new unit with grant funding in our Emergency Department, dedicated to patients with mental and behavioral health issues, and we are affiliating with the new Robert J. Keegan Family Center for Autism. In 2010, we performed more than 10 percent more surgeries than in the previous year and set a record for reducing infections. Our transport team flew their 1,000th flight in Air Bear,® the state’s first and only medical helicopter dedicated to pediatrics. On the clinical research side, we received generous matching gifts following the founding of the Rebecca D. Considine Research Institute, and Dr. Michael Reed is bringing together an impressive team. Their work with the Austen BioInnovation Institute shows the power of collaboration, and I expect exciting developments from them. In the Mahoning Valley, we celebrated our second year at our Beeghly campus facility, and the ever-growing number of children we serve there. We held an open house for the new surgery center and started construction on our Garden of Hope. It is gratifying to see how the people of the Valley have embraced our mission, and it is rewarding to become part of the fabric of another community. When I reflect on everything we accomplished last year, I have to share my admiration for our people. They truly embraced the meaningful nature of our work and took the words of our promises to heart – to treat all children as if they were our own, to treat everyone the way we would want to be treated, and to turn no child away for any reason. Thank you to all who support our mission, and I look forward to more great things in the year ahead. William H. Considine President and Chief Executive Officer AKRON CHILDREN’S HOSPITAL 2010 ANNUAL REPORT 1 FROM THE CHAIRMAN OF THE BOARD Dear friends, As I look back on the accomplishments of Akron Children’s Hospital throughout the last year, I am proud of the continued growth and expansion of services we achieved throughout the region, all while keeping focused on our mission of providing high quality health care to children, regardless of a family’s ability to pay. One of our growth areas in 2010 was in the Mahoning Valley, where the volume of patients increased dramatically. We expect to see that trend continue, as well as ongoing growth in the number of acute care referrals to our Akron campus. I am especially gratified to see how well our Beeghly campus has integrated into the community, and the energy that accompanied the opening of our new surgical suites in October. Akron Children’s had a very strong year financially, both in terms of operations and investments. I credit Administration for the success of our operations. The leadership team did a remarkable job of proactively managing volumes as our patient census rose and fell, and it really paid off. An area where we continue to shine is the quality of our Medical Staff. Our physician recruitments this past year have tremendously deepened our service lines. Of particular note are the additions of several world-class physicians: Dr. Roger Hudgins, director, Division of Neurosurgery and clinical director of our NeuroDevelopmental Science Center; Dr. Bruce H. Cohen, director of Pediatric Neurology; and Dr. Richard Hertle, director of Pediatric Ophthalmology. They join our already stellar staff. I would like to thank Administration for their dedicated work and outstanding results, as well as the Board of Directors for their tireless dedication. Much of the work of the Board takes place in committees throughout the year, and many of our Board members sit on multiple committees. They devote a significant amount of time to the ongoing governance and oversight of the Hospital, and I am truly grateful for their service. The common theme I hear from visitors is that they are amazed by the culture of caring at Akron Children’s Hospital. Our culture is a blessing, but it does not happen by accident. It is the result of the dedication of all the people who are devoted to our tradition of caring and quality, and their commitment to carry it forward every single day. Each of them has my true admiration and appreciation. Greg A. McDermott Chairman, Board of Directors Akron Children’s Hospital 4 AKRON CHILDREN’S HOSPITAL 2010 ANNUAL REPORT Greg A.

I would like to personally extend my gratitude to the Board of Directors, Foundation Board, Women’s Board and the Foundation staff for their hard work, which allows us to play a role in fulfilling the mission of Akron Children’s Hospital. Total fundraising for 2010 from all sources including individuals, Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals, grants from the public and private sector, special events and corporations exceeded $11,530,000, an increase of more than 3 percent from the previous year. Overall, performance was improved in a number of divisions, including Annual Giving and the Mahoning Valley. In fact, despite transitioning to a shorter campaign, the Annual Fund experienced a 19 percent increase in 2010. Additionally, the hospital received $2.2 million in anonymous, major gifts that will greatly help patient care initiatives here at the hospital. Fundraising in the Mahoning Valley continues to grow as we cultivate relationships with more partners in the region. In 2010, we saw an increase in both the number of donors and dollars raised. A total of 1,408 donors contributed $773,965 to support the programs and services of Akron Children’s Hospital Mahoning Valley. This represents an increase of 57 percent in dollars raised and an increase of 47 percent in the number of donors. I’d also like to mention the success of our special events. For the first time ever, we raised more than $1 million at fundraisers held throughout the Akron area. If you’ve attended the Holiday Tree Festival, the Forest Heritage Festival, or An Evening of Wine and Wishes, you know how fun these events can be and you also know how much good they do for our hospital. 2010 was a monumental year for the Akron Children’s Hospital Foundation, and I’d like to extend my heartfelt gratitude to all of our donors, large and small. Your support reflects a greater commitment for the outstanding work of Akron Children’s Hospital and the contribution our organization makes to improve the lives of the babies, children and families in northern Ohio. Sincerely, Philip H. Maynard Chairman, Akron Children’s Hospital Foundation 8 AKRON CHILDREN’S HOSPITAL 2010 ANNUAL REPORT Philip H. Maynard AKRON CHILDREN’S HOSPITAL 2010 ANNUAL REPORT 9 From critical care transport to treatment to research, our intensive care team provides 24/7 care for more than 1,300 seriously ill or injured children each year. The 23-bed Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU) is staffed by eight board-certified intensivists, at least one of whom is onsite every hour of the day, 365 days a year. They’re joined by eight highly-skilled certified nurse practitioners, pediatric critical care nurses, therapists, nutritionists, pharmacists, child life specialists, psychologists, surgeons and subspecialists. Critical minutes from We transport critical patients from doctors’ offices and ERs throughout our service area using one of our four pediatric-dedicated ambulances or our Air Bear® helicopter, all specially equipped for the smallest patients. Once patients arrive, their state-of-the-art care is enhanced through several ongoing research initiatives. For instance, we collaborated with a national children’s hospital organization to reduce bloodstream infections by 95 percent, saving $20,000 to $40,000 per incident. 10 AKRON CHILDREN’S HOSPITAL 2010 ANNUAL REPORT Michael Forbes, MD Lucas Perks Sharon, PA Each day PICU doctors encounter kids at life’s crossroads, like the girl with incurable lung disease our sickest kids. whose ventilator kept her from talking with her family. “I made adjustments on the breathing tube that allowed her to talk for the first time in weeks. Suddenly she could hear her voice again. She and her parents were crying, but it was a moment that allowed her to tell them what they meant to her. Forty-eight hours later, she was gone.” These are the extraordinary stories that set Akron Children’s apart. Michael Forbes, MD Pediatric Critical Care Specialist, Director of Clinical Research Michael Hughes Mansfield, OH “A typical day here can be very atypical. At any moment, the beepers can go off as we’re called to attend deliveries or resuscitations. Other times, we’re just bonding with the families and babies. I remember one little boy whose parents desperately wanted to bond with him but were overwhelmed by all the wires and IVs in his isolette. I remember the first time his mom touched him, the night he was born. It was great. I grew close to them during their stay, but it was good to see them go home and be a family.” Terra Ruthenberg, RN Nurse Educator/Case Manager Our nursery story Thanks to a recent collaboration, Akron Children’s now owns and operates the 21-bed Special Care Nursery at Summa Akron City Hospital, offering premature and critically ill newborns the same standardized care they’d receive in our own Neonatal Intensive Care Unit. Future plans include a $1 million investment in new respiratory equipment and family-friendly q p y y furnishings. g has a happy ending. Bestt off all, the was seamless B ll th h ttransition iti l ffor Summa patients and families. Their babies are still seen by the same neonatologists, who also staff the NICU at Akron Children’s Hospital. Many of the same Summa nurses, nurse practitioners and respiratory therapists are new Akron Children’s employees and are rigorously trained in our protocols and procedures. High-risk moms and babies also have the support of our Regional Fetal Treatment Center. If babies need the care of a pediatric specialist, they’re quickly transported to our NICU. AKRON CHILDREN’S HOSPITAL 2010 ANNUAL REPORT 13 Earlier this year, Akron Children’s specialists began treating patients at the MetroHealth main campus, complementing that hospital’s existing pediatric specialties. The specialty care we provide there includes pediatric cardiology, gastroenterology, cancer and blood disorders, surgery and critical care. It’s just one more example of our regional integration, made possible in part by the addition of 77 specialists to our medical staff since 2009. We also specialize in “We know from experience that this type of collaboration is a win-win for everyone,” said Norm Christopher, MD, chair of the department of Pediatrics at Akron Children’s Hospital. In fact, we have affiliations and partnerships with eight other health systems: Akron General Medical Center and Summa Health System in Akron, Fisher-Titus Medical Center in Norwalk, TriPoint Medical Center in Lake County, Aultman Hospital in Canton, St. Elizabeth Health Center in Youngstown, Robinson Memorial Hospital in Ravenna and MedCentral Health System in Mansfield. 14 AKRON CHILDREN’S HOSPITAL 2010 ANNUAL REPORT Shaniya Boyd Cleveland, OH Grace Smith, MD “I start seeing MetroHealth clinic patients about 8 a.m. MetroHealth kids. Most children are referred for heart murmur or chest pain. I also perform echocardiograms on pregnant moms to detect fetal heart defects. I remember one baby with serious congenital heart disease. The mom delivered him almost two months early, and he became very sick. He was transferred to Akron Children’s NICU where he stabilized and grew. He’s now about eight pounds and big enough for his heart surgery. That’s one of the more rewarding parts of my job.” Grace Smith, MD Pediatric Cardiologist Associate Director, Arrhythmia Center, Akron Children’s Hospital Brianna Sloan Columbiana, OH A surgeon’s day begins before dawn. By 7 a.m. he’s operating on his first patient. “I perform about five to seven cases on a typical morning. Parents feel very reassured knowing I operate at Akron Children’s here where everything centers around the kids. Children need their parents to be calm, so mom and dad need to act like a duck–calm on the surface even if they’re paddling like crazy underneath.” Caring for families as well as patients; it’s all in a day’s work for Akron Children’s surgeons. John Babyak, MD Director of Pediatric Surgical Services, Akron Children’s Hospital, Mahoning Valley Our operations Children should be able to heal close to home. That’s why we opened the only dedicated pediatric surgery department in the Mahoning Valley. We expect to serve about 2,000 kids this year in our new $7 million surgery unit, performing orthopedic, dental, urologic, ENT, plastic and gastroenterological procedures. The unit houses two surgical suites, patient preparation and recovery areas, a sterile processing center, nursing stations, a waiting room and more. extend to the Mahoning Valley. Our team includes specialty surgeons, pediatric anesthesiologists and nurses who understand the unique needs and concerns of children and their families. Child life specialists will play an important role, too, preparing children emotionally for surgery and easing their anxiety while making sure their parents know what to expect. Together they offer the specialized techniques and appropriately sized equipment to ensure the best possible outcome for every child.

For the first time ever, more than $1,037,000 was raised for the hospital. The 49th annual Harness Race Rally, sponsored by the Friends of Akron Children’s Hospital, continues to be one of the highlights of the special event calendar having raised a total of $65,000 for the Haslinger Family Pediatric Palliative Care Center. A record number of decorated trees and increased sponsorships resulted in a new all-time high of $216,000 for the Holiday Tree Festival. Special thanks to the many volunteers who make this event so special, including our deep appreciation to Holiday Tree Festival co-chairs, Heather Jalbert and Margie McDonnell. The continued leadership of Foundation Director, Greg Michalec, and his wife, Tiffany, resulted in proceeds of $130,500 through another memorable “Evening of Wine and Wishes.” This event, consisting of good company, great food and libations, has generated more than $500,000 in five years.

Mahoning Valley Philanthropic support from donors in the Mahoning Valley continues to grow as we expand our fundraising efforts. Since 2008, donors have contributed more than $3 million to support the mission of Akron Children’s Hospital in the Mahoning Valley. In addition to our collaboration with the Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals, we’ve enjoyed many fundraising successes in the Mahoning Valley A $100,000 gift from the SJK Foundation was received to create a Special Care Nursery Family Area to provide a calm, quiet and inviting place where families can rest while their child is being treated. A $50,000 pledge to establish a fund for continuing medical education in the Mahoning Valley was made by Eleanor Watanakunakorn in memory of her husband Dr. Chatchrai Watanakunakorn. Fifty thousand dollars ($50,000) from the Hine Memorial Fund was used to construct a family sleeping room in the Special Care Nursery. Capital support for Mahoning Valley Surgical Services was received through gifts of $25,000 from the Youngstown Foundation, $10,000 from the J. Ford Crandall Foundation, and an anonymous gift of $5,000. The Garden of Hope, a unique outdoor space nestled in a highly visible, yet enclosed, courtyard area on the Akron Children’s Hospital Beeghly Campus, was funded entirely through philanthropic donations totaling almost $70,000. The second annual “Koins for Kids” campaign, sponsored by Handel’s Ice Cream, raised more than $28,000. Our partnership with Warren-based Covelli Enterprises continues to grow as evidenced by the first ever Bagels for Babies campaign. Held at Panera Cafés throughout the entire market area in June 2010, the activity raised more than $17,000. Additionally, our two volunteer groups, the Community Leadership Advisory Council, which consists of 20 members and is chaired by Bruce Beeghly, and the Kids’ Crew of Akron Children’s Hospital Mahoning Valley, which now has 85 active members, continue to provide engaged leadership and support for our efforts in the Mahoning Valley. with courage and grace. Half of the proceeds, when realized, will be directed equally to expressive therapy and nursing services. Grants Akron Children’s Hospital received $3.2 million from public and private sector grant funding sources in 2010, a decrease from 2009 levels. We’ve also received outstanding support for the Rebecca D. Considine Research Institute from long-time supporters such as The Showers Family Foundation, Roger and Judy Read, Mr. and Mrs. Tony Alexander, The Mary and Louise Myers Family Foundation, and Mr. and Mrs. Willard Holland, among others, totaling more $400,000. Because of the decreased level of governmental funding, which has traditionally represented approximately 80 percent of our grant funding, the grants division increased the number of private/ family foundation requests to 51 sources which represents a doubling of submissions as compared to 2007. This activity resulted in a 21.8 percent increase in private foundation funding. Principal Giving The Principal Giving division used best practices to make good progress in 2010 and lay a foundation to build upon in 2011 and beyond. Overall, almost $3,600,000 in contributions, classified as major gifts, were received in 2010, significantly exceeding 2009 totals. Additionally, we received notification of a $600,000 gift from an anonymous donor. This gift will be directed towards three initiatives at the hospital. Additionally, the hospital continued to receive strong corporate support from a number of longtime supporters including, among others: FirstMerit, Goodyear Tire and Rubber Co., Omnova, GOJO, Unilock Ohio, AVI Foodsystems, Howard Hanna, Summit Racing, KeyBank, FirstEnergy and Polymer Valley Chemicals. The Foundation received word that an anonymous estate gift of $1.4 million was given to the hospital and is to be used for areas of greatest need. A magnanimous gift of this kind truly demonstrates the strong affection members of the community feel for Akron Children’s Hospital. An innovative estate planning gift of $800,000 was received from Dr. and Mrs. Ron Russ, a wonderful couple and grateful patients who have faced unimaginable adversity Ruthann Fasano Canton, OH AKRON CHILDREN’S HOSPITAL 2010 ANNUAL REPORT 19 Foundation Funds The Akron Children’s Hospital Foundation exists exclusively for the benefit of Akron Children’s Hospital.
