Letter from our Presidents Dear Friends: A student attending a lecture series at our hospital asked if our mission statement was current. We got the sense that the student asked this question because the wall mural displaying a copy of the mission appeared dated. What the student may have been asking was: Is the hospital’s mission still relevant? Why hasn’t it changed over time? Hospital for Special Care’s (HSC) management team members know that we visit and review this mission statement regularly, particularly when we explore initiatives and forge new relationships. Will this meet our mission, vision, standards and values is a question that is always asked when we are reviewing any new idea. This statement was written in the mid-nineties and has served us well over the years. It speaks to the lessons that have been learned over time and reflects those experiences within the statement. It is an outline telling us to build strong foundations and relationships, and has a theme that has allowed us to grow, to become stronger, and to serve our community. The statement looks to the future and stays relevant. Our country has faced many difficult challenges over the past few years. One of these challenges has been the rising cost of healthcare. Our mission statement has been the outline for ensuring that we stay focused on the people that we serve as we navigate the changes brought on by healthcare reform. HSC has often been on the forefront of innovation in healthcare delivery and program development, and we’ll continue to be the answer to solving difficult healthcare problems for other hospitals, for state and federal government agencies, and for the community. Our ability to remain flexible, quality conscious and financially efficient will make us the hospital of choice in the future, as we have been in our recent past, for people with complex medical needs. We remain fortunate for having such dedicated employees that understand the complexity of our patient care and the trials of the healthcare system. As you read this report, you will see examples of our ability to respond to community needs during this very uncertain time in healthcare. Our mission remains strong and relevant. Thank you for being part of our team. Thank you for caring about HSC and our mission. David Crandall, FACHE President & CEO Presidents & CEOs John J. Votto, DO, FCCP President & CEO A Letter from our Chair – Elizabeth K. Fumiatti Chairman of the Board Dear Friends, Over the past 18 months, we’ve grown into the most specialized neuromuscular center in the region. Headed by the area’s three leading neuromuscular medicine specialists, HSC has become the largest and most comprehensive neuromuscular clinical and research facility in Connecticut. The Neuromuscular Center treats over 1000 patients annually in one of three multidisciplinary and specialized weekly clinics – including the Muscular Dystrophy Association (MDA) Clinic for Adults, the MDA Clinic for Children, and the Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis Association (ALSA) Clinic. Under the leadership of Dr. Jinsy Andrews, the Center’s Research and Clinical Trials Unit experiments with promising new medications. HSC has recently begun its third clinical trial hoping to find effective treatments for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), myasthenia gravis, and other chronic neuromuscular disorders. An expert team of therapists and nurses offer ALS and MDA patients uncompromised care and accommodations all in a single location. Hospital for Special Care is the only ALSA-certified program in Connecticut, and one of only 35 in the country. Our Neurobehavioral Program was initially established in the early 90’s, and had consistently run with a full occupancy and a waiting list. In response to changing community needs, we developed a new 15-bed freestanding unit which was designed to incorporate lessons learned over many years. This unit opened in July of 2010 and has been fully occupied since the fall. HSC opened a dedicated Cardiac Medical Unit this year under the direction of our board-certified intensivists Paul Scalise, MD, FCCP, Senior Vice President of Medical Affairs and Steven R. Prunk, MD, FCCP, Medical Director, Cardiac Medical Unit, and consulting cardiologists. This comprehensive initiative was designed to stem the cycle of costly emergency room readmissions. The program was created to treat and assist patients who are striving to regain their functional ability while dealing with the complications of heart failure. Our “Hope Campaign” is currently underway. With the increased demand for outpatient services, we have initiated a capital campaign to address the need for increased services to treat people living with chronic diseases. HSC has also studied the needs of individuals living with Autism Spectrum Disorder and has worked with various state agencies, advocacy groups as well as the governor’s office to align our efforts with the needs of this growing population. complex pediatrics, acquired brain injury and spinal cord injury has remained high. This continues to be our first and foremost concern for our entire patient population, regardless of which of our facilities or programs is involved. As chair, I would like to extend my sincerest appreciation to David Crandall and Dr. John Votto, our CEO’s, as well as their senior management and support teams for their guidance and leadership in implementing these changes. Additionally, I extend my thanks to the dedicated employees of the many service areas that comprise the Center of Special Care. Because of your commitment, dedication and caring, we are recognized among the top not-for-profit, long-term acute care hospitals in the United States. The New Britain Academy for Health Professions – a joint venture among Hospital for Special Care, The Hospital of Central Connecticut, Chamber of Commerce and Capital Workforce Partners, provides an opportunity for high school students to explore the healthcare industry and develop relevant skills. Students can start earning credits toward a two to four-year college degree while still in high school. The program exposes students to the wide and varied opportunities in the healthcare field, and hopefully to retain these students as future employees. To our numerous volunteers and Auxiliary members who give so generously of your time, talent, and energy to ensure the continuing mission of our hospital – please know how very much your efforts are appreciated. Through all of these changes and initiatives, we are happy to report that the quality of care of our trademark areas of specialization: pulmonary care, I look forward to working with you all in this next year – you the special people who are the Center of Special Care. To my fellow board members – my special thanks for your time, diligence, foresight and direction – the year ahead presents us with many new challenges, but with your support I am confident we can meet these challenges. Elizabeth K. Fumiatti Chairman of the Board U.S. Senator Richard Blumenthal met patient and volunteer, Aliza Jenkins, as well as staff during a walking tour of HSC last September. Governor Dannel P. Malloy visited HSC last year during his campaign to announce plans for a statewide Center for Autism & Developmental Disabilities. A campaign of hope and promise. In response to the growing number of adults and children living with chronic disease, HSC has embarked upon its first capital campaign in nearly twenty years. Recent studies have shown that 87% of Americans between the ages of 65 and 79 live with at least one chronic condition. Through an expansion of our existing “Medical Home Model,” we are redesigning the way in which our patients experience healthcare. We have witnessed a steady increase in the need for outpatient services, allowing our complex patients to remain at home and “come and go” for care. This coordinated and comprehensive approach provides a cost-effective alternative to the current system of care. Key facts about the “Hope Campaign” • The Hope Campaign will increase the size of the Outpatient Center by four times current capacity – from 4,000-square feet to over 18,000. • The expansion will meet the needs of significantly more adults and children who may now “come and go” for care. An estimated 78% of HSC patients are now discharged to the community for ongoing outpatient care. • The campaign target is $5.9 million, half of which has been raised. • Top benefactors to date include the Maximilian E. and Marion O. Hoffman Foundation, the Hospital for Special Care Auxiliary, the American Savings Foundation and Ms. Maria Pietrantuono. Among the clinics slated for the new center are: Neuromuscular - ALS and muscular dystrophy (MD) for adults and children Neuromuscular Clinical Trials Research Center – ALS and MD research Neuropathy Neuropsychology Physiatry Autism Parkinson’s disease Pulmonary disease Spinal cord injury Acquired Brain injury Primary Care (for chronic adults and children) Architectural rendering of the future outpatient center It’s now easier for people with heart failure to live life more fully. Hospital for Special Care remains committed to playing a leading role in the development of standards and practices that help patients better manage their disease while also helping control healthcare costs. Under the direction of board-certified intensivists and cardiologists, the Cardiac Care Initiative team will provide guidance and education for both patients and their families. Responding to the needs of a patient population on the rise, Hospital for Special Care led Connecticut by opening the first comprehensive heart failure inpatient unit in the state. As the population ages, and as new treatments continue to evolve, this unit will play an increasingly vital role. HSC is currently collaborating with three major acute care hospitals in the region to provide treatment, therapy and education to patients who have recently received a Left Ventricular Assist Device (LVAD). Additionally, patients who are preparing for implantation of cardiac mechanical assist devices are able to receive treatment, education and strengthening prior to surgery. It is estimated that more than five million Americans are living with heart failure. More than 500,000 new cases are diagnosed each year. Once discharged from acute care hospitals, these patients often go through a painful and costly cycle of emergency room readmissions. The comprehensive heart failure unit gives heart failure patients the medical, physical and occupational therapies that will stabilize their condition while helping them gain functional ability so that they can return to home and community more quickly. According to Paul Scalise, MD, FCCP, Senior Vice President of Medical Affairs, “Through collaborative efforts with many of the leading acute care hospitals in Connecticut, HSC’s ‘disease management’ approach to heart failure will be a new style of acute care unlike any that we have known.” This learning process will give the patient and caregivers the tools they need to maintain an active and independent lifestyle when returning home. Steven R. Prunk, MD, FCCP, Medical Director, Cardiac Medical Unit and George ‘Skip’ Howland, HSC’s first patient admitted to the new cardiac medical unit. An expanding Neurobehavioral Program In response to a growing need for additional neurobehavioral beds, Hospital for Special Care added a third neurobehavioral unit in July of 2010. A new building was designed and constructed to accommodate an additional 15 patients. This new space fosters opportunities for patients’ independence and eventual community re-entry. The Neurobehavioral Program (NBP) is a long-term, inpatient rehabilitation program that specializes in the treatment of individuals who have sustained an acquired brain injury (ABI), and have had difficulty managing life in the community, or in other facilities. The purpose of the NBP is to assist these individuals in managing their behaviors appropriately, in learning skills to maximize their independence, and improving their overall quality of life. The NBP provides 24-hour physician coverage, nursing care, and supervision on secured units. In each unit, the NBP provides a therapeutic environment that utilizes a behavioral approach to treatment. Based on initial and ongoing assessments, the team identifies and prioritizes behaviors that present obstacles to successful community reintegration. The team works with the patient and family, and/or conservator, to meet goals while incorporating the patient’s cultural and spiritual beliefs. The ultimate goal of the program is to reintegrate patients safely into the community, in the least restrictive environment possible. This program provides a highly-structured, safe, and supportive environment for learning. HSC’s approach to medical care and rehabilitation begins and ends with teamwork. Under the direction of John K. Stanwood, Ph D, Chief of Psychology, neuropsychologists, physiatrists, registered nurses, case coordinators, occupational, therapeutic recreation and speech therapists, along with team leaders, behavioral specialists, and social workers work directly with patients and their families to help patients achieve their maximum level of functioning and independence. A Vision of Innovation and Growth Incredible things have been going on at Manes & Motions. We continue to evolve by leaps and bounds! Manes & Motions recently celebrated its third-year anniversary of its new home located at the Daniels Farm in Middletown. This move for Manes & Motions has been an exceptional one. Change has been good. It signifies vision, innovation and growth… As part of its on-going mission to provide a wide range of sports and fitness activities for individuals living with cognitive and physical special needs, HSC envisioned a whole new world…where a hospital partners and affiliates with a program of our kind. We are proud to announce that in 2010 our Rider Assistance Program (RAP) was launched. RAP financially helps riders in need of support by offsetting the riding fees and costs incurred each semester. This initiative is especially important to my fellow board members and me, as we feel strongly that Manes & Motions should make every effort to provide affordable access to our equine-assisted therapies and services, regardless of a participant’s financial circumstances. I am honored to introduce you to two of our newest Manes & Motions’ friends, Congresswoman Rosa DeLauro and the Petit Family Foundation (PFF). Both, in their respective missions, have also embraced our journey to affect positive change among our riders – to improve the quality of so many lives met by our cornerstone mission. Taking stock in our vision also demonstrates their unique understanding and appreciation of the positive and magical effect horses, and equine therapy, play in our riders’ lives, and for all of those who are challenged by chronic disease and conditions. I had the pleasure of hosting a fellow Marine, and my new friend, William Petit, Sr., as he toured our Manes’ facility, spoke with staff and volunteers, and observed riders in our program. We are most grateful to Dr. William Petit, Jr., William Petit, Sr., Hanna Chapman-Petit, the PFF Board of Directors, Norm LeBlanc and Trantolo & Trantolo, all of whom had graciously named Manes & Motions a beneficiary of the First Annual “Ride for Justice.” We appreciate the vision and generosity of the Petit Family Foundation. Their generosity and partnership underscores this Foundation’s perpetual and like interest to improve the quality of life for so many. Congresswoman Rosa DeLauro, whose district includes Middletown, has been a long-standing advocate of Hospital for Special Care (HSC). In support of HSC’s continuum of care, Congresswoman DeLauro has also taken an interest in Manes & Motions and visited our facility. During her visit, she observed a demonstration from our “Horses for Heroes” program participants, toured our facility, and spoke with riders to learn about the benefits of this initiative. She was especially interested in the “Horses for Heroes” program focused specifically on veterans who have returned from tours in Iraq and Afghanistan who are now coping with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), mild traumatic brain injury (MTBI), and other physical, emotional, and psychological challenges. She clearly understands our mission and realizes that our instructors, side-walkers, and volunteers strive each day to understand our riders’ happiness and sadness; hopes and frustration, progress and set-backs, new milestones achieved. Speaking of milestones…in other news to share – a new, and very important milestone has been achieved. We are proud to announce that the recommendation of the North American Riding for the Handicapped Association, Inc. (NARHA) Accreditation Committee granted Manes & Motions with a “Premier Accredited Center” status in January 2011. Just as other professions use standards of excellence and rating systems to improve the well-being of their industries, professionals in the field of equine-assisted activities have a distinction of their own through the Premier Accredited Center (PAC) program. The PAC program and committee certifies centers such as Manes & Motions, which have exceptional standards and have demonstrated excellence in providing quality equine-assisted activities. A Center such as ours, that meets these esteemed accreditation criteria based on administrative, facility, program and applicable special interest standards, becomes a Premier Accredited Center. We continue to work toward a year-round program which could only be realized if we build an indoor arena. An indoor arena would enable us to reduce our waiting list and bring even more happiness – all year long – and serve even more children, adolescents and adults who really need us. With your help, this is what is on our horizon. Yes, we are trailblazing! William J. Higgins Chairman of the Board Manes & Motions Therapeutic Riding Center, Inc. Janina Orzechowska, Function Coordinator– Employee of the Year 2010 Janina is an absolute joy with whom to work each day. Janina’s work ethic and enthusiasm for being a team player and always going the extra mile for everyone at HSC is unparalleled. Her positive, can-do attitude; friendliness and warmth are infectious. Her commitment to each task or project is unwavering and her tireless spirit should be emulated. She is always offering to do more, or take the initiative to make things easier and/or to render a more efficient and successful outcome. Janina consistently goes beyond the expectations of her performance requirements. As Function Coordinator, her work schedule is never the same. She maintains a high degree of flexibility in order to accommodate all of HSC’s catering needs. Few realize that she may have many catering requests on the same day, all for delivery at the same time. In addition to her responsibility as Function Coordinator, she is also a cook, often assigned the dual role of catering and patient meal service. She always gets everything done on time and delivered with a smile. Not many people realize how much love and care she puts into everything she does. She is always striving to create and improve, such as using a special herb or vegetable so that the garnish on a platter will be just right. Janina’s spirit of cooperation and her superior customer service skills have gone far in improving our environment at HSC, as her efforts have contributed to some of our best social events, due to her attention to every detail. Janina Orzechowska was also honored as the Employee of the Month for November 2009. Congratulations, Janina! This esteemed recognition, and award as Employee of the Year, is so well deserved.
