Photography by Larry Kuzniewski Dear Friends, Neighbors & Supporters: This annual report is a tribute to the spirit of life we celebrate each and every day at Methodist Le Bonheur Healthcare. We’re grateful for our many community partners and donors as well as our loyal staff, physician partners, nurses, caregivers and volunteer leaders. Together we share a common hope for the healing of people, families and neighborhoods that is illustrated by the powerful work taking place both inside our hospitals and in our neighborhoods and congregations. We are blessed with a generosity, not just of resources, but also of spirit. Our determination to build bonds beyond hospital walls, and our recognition that we were put here to make a difference, guide and inspire each of us in our continued commitment to serve our community and live our mission every day. For the first time, you will see the numbers representing our total community benefit printed in the annual report. We share these numbers with the intent of illustrating the power of our mission when supported by caring people like you. Only with you and other caring donors can we continue to provide outstanding care. All of this is possible thanks to the support and contributions of many. We are grateful for your generosity as are the individuals and families we serve. Thank you for taking a moment to read the stories in this annual report and meet some of the people we feel proud to call part of our quality care team. In the spirit of thanks and caring, Susan Murrmann, M.D., Chairman of the Board Methodist Healthcare Foundation Paula Jacobson, President Methodist Healthcare Foundation Gary S. Shorb, President and CEO Methodist Le Bonheur Healthcare Over 250 MLH Associates participated in the 2009 Memphis Start! Heart Walk at AutoZone Park. MLH raised $58,771.67 for the American Heart Association. The MLH team showed up in force again at the Start! Heart Walk -- even some four-legged friends got in the spirit. Several hundred people attended Methodist South’s Fall Health Fair, which featured a two-mile community walk, health education booths, free screenings, games, food, and family fun. Methodist South Associate, Robin Potter, RN, demonstrates that it’s never too early to start teaching healthy habits as she talks to one of the health fair’s youngest attendees. Methodist Le Bonheur Healthcare partnered with the Mid-South Food Bank to help end hunger in the Mid-South through Operation Feed, a workplace food and funds drive. Food and funds raised are distributed in 31 counties in west Tennessee, north Mississippi and east Arkansas.

The Humanitarian Fund, begun in 1976, offers hope to Associates who experience life-shattering tragedies. House fires, burglaries, deaths in the family, weather-related incidents or loss of wages due to a prolonged illness are some of the situations Associates faced this past year. More than 930 grants were issued to over 300 Associates in 2009 alone. Associates (l-r) Jessica Utley, Mallory Himelrick, and Kimberly Ross prep the site for Methodist North Associates to begin “building generosity” at their 2010 Associate Campaign kick-off. Methodist Fayette Hospital’s Annual Community Health and Resource Fair is a family-oriented event featuring free health screenings, food, games and a live radio broadcast. Melodie Voyles, RN, provides an attendee with a cholesterol and blood sugar screening. (above) Nurses from Same Day Surgery at Methodist University Hospital filled five backpacks with binders, dictionaries, thesauruses and other school supplies to help some deserving Memphis students. The backpacks were donated to Youth Visions, a program that aids in bringing resolution to our youth’s problems by meeting their spiritual, academic, and social needs. In addition to the school supplies, the nurses also placed a personal note in each backpack to encourage the student and let them know that there are Associates at Methodist who care about them.

The store was developed to allow students with good grades, attendance, and most improved status on their report cards to earn “Eagle Bucks” and a chance to shop for a variety of school supplies and toys, some of which were donated by MLH. The MLH Print Shop also donated the printing of the “Eagle Bucks” to Norris Road. MLH has been an adopt-a-school partner for Norris Road (formerly Dunn Elementary) through the Memphis City Schools adopt-aschool program for over 25 years.

Sarla Lewis & Jordan Nichols Sarla Lewis is a yoga instructor with a deep appreciation for the miracle of the human body and the power of the human mind. But she’s never been a big fan of doctors or hospitals. That all changed in early January 2010. She and her husband Jimmy were travelling in Pennsylvania when she got a late night call that her son, Jordan, had been rushed to the hospital after passing out while with friends. They were back in Memphis by noon the next day to find Jordan in an induced coma in the ICU at Methodist University Hospital. “This is when I began to feel really grateful for the people at Methodist,” Sarla says. Jordan’s diagnosis was suggested by a medical student who happened to be on hand and had been studying Brugada Syndrome, a rare genetic condition affecting young men and characterized by abnormal EKG and a risk of sudden cardiac death. “The way you know you have this disease is you die,” Sarla says. But thanks to the quick thinking of many, Jordan didn’t die. And Sarla’s family’s experience at the hospital has endeared her to Methodist Le Bonheur Healthcare for life. “The people in the ICU were just amazing,” she said. “Over and over again, people just treated us with such kindness.” The experience has changed her outlook on medicine. And Jordan says he’s back to nearly 100 percent, even resuming work as an actor at Playhouse on the Square. “I don’t have a lot of memory around being in the hospital,” he says, “but I do know that the doctors and nurses gave care that was above and beyond what anyone in my family expected. They were very reassuring to my family and they let them know it was all going to be all right.” His mom agrees. “It was really just a powerful experience.” “ Family members are the primary source of support for a patient. Every touchpoint is being examin ed with the goal of ensuring the best patient experience. We’re committed to setting the standard for compassionate patient- and family-centered care. “ –Michelle Collis, Vice President Patient- and Family-Centered Care, Methodist Le Bonheur Healthcare Partnering with Patients and Families Creates Powerful Medicine Patient- and Family-Centered Care Treating patients as well as their families Imagine a healthcare setting where the family member can be by the side of the patient, providing comfort, support and vital information for recovery. They are part of the healing process, collaborating with caregivers to determine the best possible care for the patient. Patients and family members are more engaged in the healing process, are more familiar with the level of care needed for recovery and are better prepared to provide the necessary care after the patient is discharged from the hospital. At Methodist Le Bonheur Healthcare, the spirit of healing has been our strength for the better part of a century. As a faith-based healthcare organization, we have a unique culture that understands that healing involves more than treating specific symptoms. A philosophy of patient-and family-centered care embraces our vision of delivering outstanding care to each patient. Patient-and family-centered care is an approach to the planning, delivery and evaluation of healthcare that is grounded in mutually beneficial partner- ships among patients, families and healthcare providers. It’s an entire culture of service built on the following principles: • Dignity and respect for the family • Complete and unbiased information sharing in ways that are affirming and useful • Family participation in care planning and delivery • Family collaboration with clinicians in policies, procedures and staff education Methodist Le Bonheur Healthcare is committed to equal partnerships with our patients and their families to create a truly special care environment. To ensure this commitment, we are enlisting advisors, called Patient and Family Partners, to provide guidance and input. These partners help us view the world through their unique and important perspectives by participating in work groups on special projects, sitting on a special hospital steering committee or simply providing input during patient- and family-centered care meetings. By truly partnering with patients and families, we can improve care for all patients. We’re care for you. you. Contributions help us care for others.

The soul of our mission is an unconditional concern for our patients and their families, and we believe there is always more that can be done, not only to treat people but also to impact the quality of life for those in our community. Because of these beliefs, we are building a Center of Excellence in Faith and Health, an engine of innovation and family care to support the health and healing of our patients and their communities. The Center of Excellence in Faith and Health is grounded in the principle that congregations can play a significant role in healthcare when they are strategic partners in the their members’ health journeys. As part of the Center of Excellence in Faith and Health, the Congregational Health Network (CHN), was created. The CHN is an innovative program designed to build a special bond between Methodist Le Bonheur Healthcare and patients by partnering with area churches. The CHN promotes wellness and disease prevention, while also easing the transition from home to hospital and hospital to home or another facility. Playing an integral role in the success of the CHN are navigators, Methodist Le Bonheur Associates who assist pastors and specially appointed congregational liaisons during a congregation member’s stay at Methodist. Navigators make regular visits to their assigned churches and coordinate educational health workshops and classes for congregation members. More than 200 congregations throughout the Mid-South are part of the Congregational Health Network. To support this work, a physical home within the hospital is needed. To ensure that these vital resources are just steps from patients and families, we are building The Center of Excellence in Faith and Health in the heart of Methodist University Hospital. It will be an onsite and virtual learning center, and upon its completion, services will extend into the city through the congregations and neighborhoods. “We truly believe we can make a difference in the overall health and welln ess of the community. This concept is important for all parts of the city that we serve and from all economic situations. Everyon e n eeds people who care in their lives.“ —Gary Gunderson, D. Min., M. Div.

Ruby Tate “We are trying to gather the wounded and let them know the love of God,” says Ruby Tate of her work with the Congregational Health Network and her church. For Ruby, a licensed ordained elder at the Pursuit of God Transformation Center, a single congregation in two locations with about 800 members, healing is what church and ministry are all about. “We collaborate with the church and the hospitals. We’re like the inbetween person helping them get the information and resources they need to eliminate disparities.” As the liaison, she is the link between her church and Methodist Le Bonheur Healthcare. She also helps educate parishioners before they become sick by providing information and resources for improved health. Ruby and her CHN liaison counterparts in over 200 Memphis congregations take their work seriously and are a valued part of the healing team at Methodist. “My motto is to speak the solution and not the problem. Pastor Floyd ministered a series, being Focused, Faithful and Fruitful, if we remain in this posture, together we can connect individuals to the needed resources to aid in decreasing disparities and increasing the life span of many,” says Ruby. Miracles Sometimes Come in Threes “We didn’t know if she would make it. But, they kept trying. They wouldn’t give up.“ —Linda Ship Methodist Le Bonheur Germantown Hospital Growing to meet the growing needs of patients and families for years to come Methodist Le Bonheur Germantown Hospital has been providing outstanding care to patients and their families for more than 20 years. As part of their commitment to continuing to serve patients and families for generations to come, a $121 million expansion project was started in May 2008 that added 218,000 square feet to the hospital. The new Women’s and Children’s Pavilion, which opened in February 2010, is part of the hospital expansion project which includes 100 additional licensed beds, a 600space parking deck, and numerous renovations within the current hospital. The Women’s and Children’s Pavilion offers: • A neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) with 24 private rooms where parents can remain with their newborn throughout their infant’s hospital stay. • A neonatal specialist on staff 24/7. • A 24/7 board certified OB hospitalist, making it the first facility in the Memphis area to provide this specialty care for those times when the baby cannot wait and the doctor has not yet arrived. • Spacious labor and delivery rooms designed with the family in mind and equipped for the ultimate in privacy, infant safety and comfort. • A special Women’s Boutique providing a wide selection of lactation supplies. • An underground tunnel connecting the Women’s & Children’s Pavilion to the main hospital wing, allowing for more efficient and easier flow of patients, equipment and physicians around the hospital campus. • Additional women’s services such as massage therapy are being planned. In addition to building the Pavilion, 100,000 square feet of the main hospital is being renovated. The following renovations are currently under way to create: • An expanded main entrance. • Expanded areas for orthopaedics and surgery. • Renovated patient rooms. • An enlarged pharmacy department and respiratory therapy area. • ICU will double in size from 8 to 16 beds, providing state-of-the-art care. • Additional Cardiac Catheterization Lab, renovated CVICU and family waiting areas. The construction of this much needed Women’s and Children’s Pavilion and the renovations to the existing hospital building ensure that Methodist Le Bonheur Germantown Hospital will continue to deliver miracles, memories, care and compassion for years to come.

LaCourtn ey & Ja’Angel Grace Paige As she was driving her cousin, LaCourtney Paige, to the Emergency Department at Methodist Germantown, Linda Shipp had no idea of the roller coaster ride she and her family were about to experience. And in the car, LaCourtney, who was six months pregnant, didn’t realize that she wouldn’t return home for more than two months. Just hours after being admitted for back pains and trouble breathing, LaCourtney “crashed and passed away,” says Linda. “The team at Methodist Germantown immediately revived her and began working to save the baby.” Minutes later, a baby girl weighing just two pounds and three ounces was welcomed into the world. But LaCourtney’s health continued to decline. Diagnosed with H1N1, she developed pneumonia, causing her lungs to collapse. “We didn’t know if she would make it. But, they kept trying. They wouldn’t give up,” says Linda. When Linda talks about this lifechanging series of events she tells a story of her family balancing work, caring for children and caring for LaCourtney at Germantown and her infant, who was admitted to Le Bonheur for a hole in her intestines. “She was such a miracle. She didn’t have a name for so long because LaCourtney wasn’t even aware enough to name her. We knew she was a gift and the name Ja’Angel Grace fit. I called her Gracie, my little miracle.” Linda says that LaCourtney’s battle to live was unbelievable, another miracle. “We kept saying we weren’t going to bury her, she was supposed to grow old and bury us. Julie, our nurse said it was our strength that helped to save her.” The rest of the story Linda tells is one of exceptional care. Throughout the process of caring for LaCourtney and Ja’Angel, Linda says the family felt as if they were part of the clinical team. “They are a great staff and they were always thinking of new treatment options. They had us on speed dial. They called throughout the day when we were at work to update us on her condition. They knew us by name.” Mom and baby were home to welcome in the New Year—still another miracle, you might say. LaCourtney may not remember much about the early months in the ICU, but she knows one thing for sure, “I love Methodist,” she says. “They are awesome.” Jim McGehee & Mark Yancy Jim McGehee, chairman and owner of McGehee Realty and Development Co., has a certain spirit about him. On first meeting, he is clearly determined and successful. But there’s more. It doesn’t take long for his outlook and his spirit of giving and caring for the community to emerge as his compass for life. After seeing his wife’s former home health nurse suffer and eventually die from sickle cell disease, he was moved to become involved in the quest to provide better care for sufferers of the disease. “You have never in your life seen anyone suffer the way a sickle cell patient suffers during a crisis,” Jim says. “This experience helped me recognize the need for additional specialized and accessible resources to care for these patients.” Jim is providing both leadership and financial support to the communitywide campaign to create a Comprehensive Sickle Cell Center. Together with Mark Yancy, coordinator of major gifts at the Methodist Healthcare Foundation, they have recruited a diverse community leadership group to help raise the needed dollars. “Filling this gap is essential,” says Mark. “There are more than 1,500 sickle cell patients in the Memphis area who continually suffer bouts of excruciating pain in the chest, arms, legs or other parts of the body. In crisis mode, they need a place to go where their disease is understood and can be quickly addressed.” Yancy speaks from experience. He missed a year–and-a-half of college classes because sickle cell had destroyed bone and tissue in his hips. At 21, he had his right hip replaced once and his left hip replaced twice. Two people, a spirit of determination, and one mission—to break the sickle cycle. When spirits converge, great things do happen. “ I know that as a community, we can rise to this challenge and meet a very serious n eed to improve the health status of the Mid-South . This center can and will affect outcomes as it will focus not just on treatment, but prevention and welln ess, too. “ —Gary Shorb President and CEO Methodist Le Bonheur Healthcare Spirits Converge to Break the Sickle Cycle Comprehensive Sickle Cell Center of Memphis Understanding and addressing the needs of sickle cell patients In April, passionate healthcare leaders, community leaders, fundraisers and citizens came together to announce the launch of a fundraising campaign to create the Comprehensive Sickle Cell Center of Memphis. The comprehensive program will be a collaborative effort by Methodist Le Bonheur Healthcare, the University of Tennessee Health Science Center, and others in the community. The Center’s outpatient clinic and coordinated program will be housed at Methodist University Hospital’s campus. Filling this gap in care will improve the health and quality of life for the approximately 1,500 sickle cell patients and their families in the Memphis Metro area. The comprehensive sickle cell center’s design is based on delivering the most advanced clinical treatment, offering on-site research for treatment advances and ultimately a cure, and full psychosocial support for its patients. The Center will: • Provide advanced clinical care and enhance the quality of life for patients and their families • Establish Memphis as a world leader in providing care for sickle cell patients • Offer on-site research for treatment advances and full psychosocial support for its patients • Provide acute care for those with sickle cell disease, with the same staff providing acute and routine health maintenance care to patients older than 16 years of age. • Help patients avoid emergency department visits, translating to reduced pain and suffering for sickle cell patients in the Mid-South as well as reduced admission rates to hospitals and reduced in-patient length of stay. Your gift goes directly to build the home and infrastructure for this world-class program. Your support of the Comprehensive Sickle Cell Center of Memphis will help improve the health and quality of life for hundreds in our community. We’re here to care for you.

But when he learned he would need a liver transplant, having it done in his hometown was the furthest thing from his mind. “I was thinking of a hospital in Pittsburgh or Mayo Clinic,” he admits. “But I had a doctor who asked me to check in with Methodist. I met with Dr. (James) Eason and he was so comforting. He didn’t oversell it, but he was so convincing. I canceled all my other appointments then and there.” Jimmy had the transplant on August 1, 2007 at Methodist University Hospital Transplant Institute. And he’s glad he did. “I spent six nights in the hospital, and I couldn’t have asked for better treatment,” he says. “I can’t say enough about Methodist. I have been doing all I can to help.” At 67, Jimmy still works at the lumber and building materials business that bears his name and is feeling great. “If I’m in Memphis, I go to the office,” he says. “It’s just remarkable.” He’s grateful for Dr. Eason, who joined the staff of the Transplant Institute after Hurricane Katrina destroyed his New Orleans transplant clinic. “God works in strange ways,” Jimmy said. “Dr. Eason came to Memphis after Katrina destroyed his clinic. He had only been here 14 months when I met him. We’re very fortunate to have Dr. Eason and that transplant team. They’re caring people. They want you to get well.” And he’s grateful for Methodist and all it does for Memphis. “They do so much for the community. They help a lot of people.” “We have an extremely talented transplant team that is dedicated to saving as many lives as possible through organ transplantation . The donation of an organ is a truly amazing gift of life, and I feel very fortunate to be a part of this program .“ —James Eason, M.D. Program Director, Methodist University Hospital Transplant Institute Professor of Transplant Surgery, University of Tennessee Health Science Center Chief of Transplant Surgery, UT Medical Group Methodist University Hospital Transplant Institute Excellence through innovation and inspiration Methodist University Hospital Transplant Institute has a solid history, rich in research and innovation, as well as an established reputation as a leader in the transplant field for more than 30 years.

We feel good about our current financial support and our bequest.“ —Ed and Marie Roberson Donors Share the Mission - Make it Possible Ed & Marie Roberson “Every day is a holiday, every meal is a banquet.” Ed Roberson’s attitude and outlook on life are contagious. Ask him how he’s doing and he’ll tell you, “every day is a holiday, every meal is a banquet.” Lucky for Methodist, Ed and his wife, Marie, share their attitude of abundance with others in the community by giving their time, talents and treasure to help Methodist provide outstanding care to everyone. When Ed began his tenure on the Methodist Le Bonheur Healthcare board of directors a dozen or so years ago, he thought it was “just another non-profit board.” But that wasn’t his view for long. “Once I really got in there and got a sense of what Methodist is about – its mission and the service and care it provides – I realized what a great organization it is and how we are truly making a difference for people in our community.” Ed says “the mission of providing healthcare to ANYONE regardless of their ability to pay,” inspired him and Marie to make a planned gift to both Methodist and Le Bonheur. The bequest will enable future generations to benefit from the abundant spirit of giving Methodist experiences today due to the Roberson’s generosity. In addition to making a planned gift, Ed and Marie have also given generously to the capital campaigns underway at Methodist Le Bonheur Healthcare and continually provide support at events and gatherings. Now serving in his fourth year as chairman of the board, Ed’s enthusiastic about the healthcare system’s future and growing national acclaim. “The Transplant Institute really puts Memphis on the map.” And, he’s just as excited and grateful for what Methodist means to the Memphis community. “Our relationship with St. Jude, The Med, the Church Health Center – we are just critical to the Memphis community. We are so mission-oriented, and we’re staying downtown which is where we need to be to carry out our mission. I think Methodist is doing everything right, and we’re doing everything right for the community. We feel good about our current financial support and our bequest.” Methodist Le Bonheur Healthcare depends on contributions to help further the ministry of healing. Your gifts support the enhancement and expansion of clinical programs in our priority areas of care, research that saves lives and healthcare education and outreach for patients throughout our communities.
