Annual Report 2014-2015
from vision to reality
you have made the difference
“The human touch
is rooted in
St. Michael’s culture
across every aspect of the hospital and in Dr. Daniels and his incredible team.”
A hunting accident at age 15, when a 12-gauge shotgun blast tore through
Charlie’s right foot, meant a series of painful corrective procedures and
difficulty walking as an adult. His research led him to Dr. Tim Daniels,
recognized as the top foot and ankle surgeon in Canada. Dr. Daniels performed
two surgeries at St. Michael’s that finally liberated Charlie from pain.
“While some hospitals may be shinier and
others have higher profile, none offered
the patient experience I received at
this hospital. St. Michael’s is world class.”
Charlie knows that St. Michael’s is a leader in first-class orthopedic care.
Donors to our Inspire 2018 campaign are helping to build a new
16-bed unit in the Peter Gilgan Patient Care Tower, which will connect with our
existing 16-bed orthopedic unit, enabling us to help even more patients like Charlie.

A world leader
in urban health
St. Michael’s is a remarkable place with a long history of having
the best people delivering the very best patient care – a place
that I have been proud to be a part of for more than 30 years.
With our Inspire 2018 campaign we will transform St. Michael’s,
updating facilities and equipment to give us the tools we
need to become the premier critical care hospital in Canada
and a world leader in urban health.
Our exciting future is quickly becoming a reality.
Thanks to the most successful fundraising year ever
and investments by our largest individual and corporate
donors to date, construction of the new Peter Gilgan
Patient Care Tower has begun. The centrepiece of our
transformation, this state-of-the-art building, along with
our twice-as-large Slaight Family Emergency Department
and the Element Financial Atrium and Way, will improve
patient care and ensure best-possible outcomes for all
of our patients, saving even more lives.
Government funding pays for much of our health care
costs, but not all of it. Without the support of generous
community partners and donors it would be impossible
to advance the research and education necessary to innovate
and deliver superior care to all our patients. Your contributions
allow us to provide the very best in patient care today, tomorrow
and into the future.
Your support makes all the difference, so simply, thank you.
Our vision for the future of St. Michael’s is becoming a reality
– please join us on our journey.

President & CEO

A terrific year!
I am pleased to share our 2014-2015 Annual Report with you.
Thanks to our friends and supporters, it has been another terrific
year! Once again, our donors have demonstrated their remarkable
commitment to the mission of St. Michael’s. This year has seen
important contributions from Peter Gilgan and Element Financial,
among others. We certainly appreciate all gifts. We are most
grateful that, among a host of choices, all our donors continue
to make health care, as it is practiced at this hospital, their
philanthropic priority. Our skilled teams certainly could not
achieve all they do without you.
I am also most appreciative of all the work done by our
dedicated Foundation volunteers. Although you don’t see them
when you come for your hospital visit, they are an essential
part of the St. Michael’s team. Their time and energy have
been integral to the continuing success of our Inspire 2018
campaign, which, with their help, I am sure will reach its
target in the coming year.
On behalf of the physicians, nurses and staff of St. Michael’s,
I want to say a most sincere thank you to all our donors for
the wonderful support you have shown this year. Your generosity
supports the care that our people provide to those in need
every day. Your gifts to our Inspire 2018 campaign will help
us realize our future. Thank you.
Let’s celebrate the events of this past year, as together
we look forward to an exciting future!
With best wishes,
L. Alayne Metrick, FAHP
President
St. Michael’s Foundation

A Great Team
Over the last four years as Chair of the Foundation Board,
I have watched this hospital reach extraordinary milestones
in its history. The ambitious goal to become Canada’s premier
critical care hospital is well underway as we close in on the
final $28 million of our campaign. We have made great
strides in our research and education programs, continuing
to recruit the best and brightest. We have a new strategic
plan that will position us as a world leader in urban health.
And we have done it all while maintaining the core
value of compassionate care to all. Together, we have
accomplished a lot. And we should be proud.
Great success is not possible without a great team.
Our accomplishments would simply not happen without
the committed staff, dedicated caregivers, savvy
fundraisers and, of course, generous donors. Because of
you, we are able to make a measurable impact on the
type of care we provide – meaning our patients get better
sooner. What a terrific outcome to celebrate.
As I pass the leadership reigns to incoming Chair
Frank Techar, I am confident we will complete Inspire 2018
and see this hospital transform into a world-class facility,
matching our world-class care. With the continued support of
our exceptional executive team, led by Dr. Bob Howard, and our
committed foundation team of volunteers and board members
under the leadership of Alayne Metrick, the future of this
hospital is in great hands. I look forward to seeing it come to life.

The Urban Angel
I’m extremely proud to be part of this great place. In my five years
as a Director on the Hospital’s Board, I’ve seen first-hand how
remarkable St. Michael’s is. It’s not just a great hospital, but
also an essential part of the fabric of Toronto. It is the only
hospital located downtown founded to serve the needs of
the inner city and is also a major centre of critical care for
patients. As a leader in urban health and critical care, this
hospital is often caring for the sickest of the sick. No wonder
it is affectionately known as the “Urban Angel.”
St. Michael’s is home to a world-class team. But what
makes care in St. Michael’s so great goes further than the
medical expertise of its staff. When patients come to
St. Michael’s, they are more than just a waiting room
number: they are genuinely listened to and treated
with respect and compassion.
St. Michael’s also contributes significantly to medical
innovation. An important facility for research and
education with an affiliation with the University of Toronto,
it’s counted among the top research hospitals in Canada.
With the new Peter Gilgan Patient Care Tower as the
centrepiece of our Inspire 2018 campaign, we are poised to take
‘great’ to a new level. Once completed, it will be one of the best
hospital campuses in the country, providing even faster, safer and
better care for Toronto’s growing population and beyond.
Under outgoing Chair Michael Norris, the Foundation has achieved
two of its most successful years ever. Please join me in thanking
Mike for his inspiring leadership. As the new Foundation Board
Chair, I encourage you to join us as we strive to complete
Inspire 2018 – help us continue to provide great care for patients,
today and in the future. Donor support enables us to truly make
a difference – simply, thank you.

a very special celebration
A leader in philanthropy, Founder & CEO of Mattamy Homes Peter Gilgan has made
a remarkable investment of $30 million to build the Peter Gilgan Patient Care Tower.
We honoured Peter at a special event on September 19, 2014, which also served as the launch
of the public phase of our Inspire 2018 campaign.

“it was like six
people standing
on my chest.”
It could happen to anyone. When Paul had a heart attack at age 60,
he came to St. Michael’s where he was diagnosed with atrial fibrillation,
three major blockages and a weakened heart, possibly from previous minor
heart attacks. He was treated by our cardiology and cardiac team with an
angioplasty and triple bypass surgery. Debra, his wife, was impressed
by the staff: “That first night I could sleep because I trusted the nurses
to look after Paul. I can’t say enough about St. Michael’s.”
“Thanks to the immediate and expert care
from St. Michael’s, including Dr. Akshay Bagai
and Dr. David Latter, I’m still here!”
Many donors like Paul and Debra know the importance of great cardiac care.
That’s why they’re supporting the construction of the new Coronary Intensive Care
Unit in the Peter Gilgan Patient Care Tower, the centrepiece of Inspire 2018.

largest clinic in North
America under the leadership
of Dr. Paul O’Connor (seen

Sclerosis Research Fund to
support research and
education. John and Jocelyn
Barford made a lead gift,
which Jon and Nancy Love
matched and Beth Malcolm
enhanced.
A Breath of

We are pleased to share with
you that our Inspire 2018
campaign, which will give
us the resources to become
Canada’s premier critical
care hospital, has reached
a remarkable $182 million
towards our ambitious
goal of $210 million. We are
striving to complete the
funding required in the
coming year, but we can’t
do it without you!
Showing
leadership
The 2014 Spirit of
Philanthropy Award was
presented at our annual
Founders’ Reception to
Dr. Tom Marotta, who is
not only a leader in the
minimally invasive treatment
of aneurysms but also a
terrific fundraiser who
inspires people to support
the hospital.

Continuous
Improvement
David and Anne Patterson,
who previously helped to create
our Chair in Trauma, reaffirmed
their commitment to our
quality improvement initiatives
with a contribution of another
$1 million. Their support
has allowed us to firmly
establish ourselves as a
trailblazer in quality – one
way St. Michael’s stands
apart from other hospitals.
Longtime
Friends
Generous supporters of
St. Michael’s since the mid-’80s,
Bernie and Mildred Syron,
whose contributions have
supported the Trauma
Neurosurgical Intensive Care
Unit and the Syron Lobby in the
Li Ka Shing Knowledge Institute,
have committed $1 million
toward the Peter Gilgan Patient
Care Tower. Their gift also
generously took the 2014
Angel Ball over its goal.

“It was terrifying:
my face had
doubled in size.
Dr. Thomas was calm and very reassuring during a moment of real stress.”
Aysa has worked at St. Michael’s for more than 17 years. Recently, however,
what turned out to be hives on her cheek on Thursday became an urgent
and frightening problem by Saturday. Naturally she sought care in a place
where care is unparalleled. At our Sherbourne Family Clinic,
she was treated by resident Dr. Hana Susan Thomas –
immediately things began to return to normal.
“I’ve always known St. Michael’s
offers great care, but now I speak from
personal experience.”
Staff members like Aysa know first-hand that St. Michael’s delivers the
very best in compassionate care. That’s why she – and 100% of our physicians –
are supporting Inspire 2018.

in memoriam:
hart
macdougall
In September, we said
goodbye to one of our most
extraordinary ambassadors.
Hartland “Hart” MacDougall
was a tireless St. Michael’s
advocate and volunteer for
more than 40 years. He was
the Founding Chair of the
Board of Directors for the
and then a Director,
serving for 18 years.
Best Care
Brookfield, which has
supported a number of
hospital priorities over the
years, including the Chairs
in Women’s Health and
Trauma and our new
Women’s Health Centre,
has generously pledged
$5 million to create the new
Medical-Surgical Intensive
Care Unit in the new Peter
Gilgan Patient Care Tower.
27
Volunteer, Donor,
Advocate and Friend
John Tory has been an ardent and invaluable supporter of St. Michael’s for more than
20 years. He has co-chaired three of the Foundation’s last four campaigns and served
in the leadership cabinet of the fourth. During his long association with this hospital
before he became Mayor of Toronto, John also chaired the Foundation Board and has
been a key member of the Foundation’s executive committee. He has been responsible
for introducing many new friends to the mission and work of St. Michael’s.
John, we most sincerely appreciate all you have done for us.
We cannot say Thank You enough!
28
perfect score
Our Urban Angel Golf Classic celebrated its 28th anniversary in July 2014
with 288 friends of St. Michael’s giving by golfing. This is the eighth
consecutive year this signature event has raised more than $1 million net
for St. Michael’s priorities. A new feature this year was the addition of
pro golfers from PGA Canada who provided on-course advice to our
participants. The event was co-chaired again by our terrific volunteers
Vas Georgiou, John Manning and Michael Thompson.
29
A Stellar Year
This was the most successful
year to date for our
St. Michael’s Young Leaders!
Congratulations to co-chairs
Tyler Howard and
Brad Lawrence for this
great achievement. We are
grateful for their leadership
and enthusiasm during their
first year. The committee
raised a total of $290,000
net from their three events:
The Dodger, The Duffer
and The Giver.
Breathing
Much Easier
The Geoffrey H. Wood
Foundation, which in our
previous fiscal year made a
wonderful pledge of $5 million
to create a new respirology
unit in the Peter Gilgan Patient
Care Tower, made a second
gift of $40,000 which will
provide opportunities for
respite care for those
inpatients who have lengthy
hospital stays.

Nitin Patel celebrated the
12th anniversary of the
McGee-Clark Fundraiser,
remembering Mary (McGee)
Pierre and Catherine (Clark)
Lonergan. The committee’s
grand total is now more than

Wings of Hope have enabled
the purchase of specialized

“WHEN PEOPLE SAY
THEY NEED BACK
SURGERY, I SAY
‘GO TO st. michael’s.’ ”
Imagine playing soccer one day, and the next you’re in a wheelchair.
Only 25, Nicole came to St. Michael’s with two herniated discs and early
degeneration of two vertebrae. The pain got so severe that Nicole resorted first
to using crutches and then a wheelchair to get to her classes at York University.
Dr. Sunit Das and his team swung into action. Standing up after surgery,
Nicole felt no pain: “I had the biggest smile on my face at that moment.”
“Dr. Das was phenomenal.
He treated me as if I was his own
daughter. Thank you, St. Michael’s!”
Nicole and patients like her know that great surgical care is critical.
That’s the reason they’re supporting the creation of five new hybrid operating
rooms in the Peter Gilgan Patient Care Tower.

Dr. Elizabeth Tullis, director
of our Adult CF Program,
which is the largest in North
America, was named the

Dr. Tullis is focused on
managing the challenges

Generous
commitment
A wonderful commitment from
Ronald and Barbara Besse
has made it possible to
establish our new Cystic
Fibrosis Canada Chair in
Adult Cystic Fibrosis Research.
St. Michael’s has North
America’s largest clinic to treat
adults with CF, the most
common fatal genetic disease
affecting Canadian children
and young adults.
Emergency
Help
Long-time friends of
St. Michael’s, Hans and Suzy
Brenninkmeyer, who helped
make our new Women’s
Health Centre and Chair in
Women’s Health realities,
made an additional $1 million
commitment to support the
Slaight Family Emergency
Department renovation —
an important part of our
Inspire 2018 campaign.

in memorY of
patrick j. keenan
In May 2014, we mourned the loss of Patrick (Pat) J. Keenan, one of our
dear friends and most generous benefactors. His relationship with the
hospital spanned nearly 30 years, and included important roles as hospital
Board Chair, dedicated volunteer and advocate, philanthropist and friend.
We remember Pat with great gratitude and thank his wife Barbara and the rest
of the Keenan family for their continued commitment to St. Michael’s.
36
creating a new
“main street”
With its investment of $15 million, Element Financial has established itself as
a leader in philanthropy by making the largest single investment by
a corporation in our history. This donation will help people navigate
St. Michael’s more easily by creating the Element Financial Way and a new
public meeting place and hub for information and retail services called the
Element Financial Atrium in the new Peter Gilgan Patient Care Tower.
37
Staff Spirit
The FunRaisers, a group of
St. Michael’s staff and
volunteers, have successfully
held numerous events,
including a Holiday Bazaar.
In December 2014, for the
second time, they arranged
this popular event with more
than 20 vendors of holiday
gifts and specialty food items
participating. Fun = Funds!
Take Me to
St. Mike’s
campaign
The phrase Take me to
St. Mike’s appeared as a
temporary tattoo on people
doing every day activities
that could be potentially
dangerous. This year’s holiday
campaign reminded people
to “Take care… but if you
need care, St. Michael’s is
where you want to be.”
It highlighted our leadership
in the care of the critically ill,
those who need care within
the hour to survive.

New Directions
for Education
Under the leadership of
Dr. Patricia Houston, our
Education Program team has
developed a new education
strategy for patients and
families, as well as staff and
students. This will allow us to
leverage our successes while
pursuing opportunity, outreach,
and outcomes across our
education strategic directions.
Nurses Leading
by Example
Cardiovascular surgery nurse
Marnee Wilson has been
recognized with the prestigious
Jerry Gerow Nurse Practitioner
Leadership Award. After seeing
the compassionate care
shown to her father who was
successfully treated here for
heart trouble, Wilson – a staff
member since 2000 – was
inspired to join the St. Michael’s
nursing team, led by Executive
VP and Chief Nursing
Executive Ella Ferris.
39
Showcasing
Our People
Our Urban Angel magazine was
awarded first place for External
Communications by the
Health Care Public Relations
Association of Canada. It was
also honoured by SOFII
(Showcase of Fundraising
Innovation and Inspiration),
a UK-based site recognizing
fundraising creativity, as a
“unique and creative approach
to donor communications.”
Urban Health
Director of our Centre for
Research on Inner City
Health, Dr. Patricia O’Campo
was appointed as the first
Chair in Intersectoral
Solutions for Urban Health
Problems. The resources
provided by this new position
will enable Dr. O’Campo and
her team to continue
groundbreaking research to
support social change and
reduce health inequities.

new Brain
Surgery chair
Our first Chair in
Cerebrovascular and Brain
Tumor Surgery is held by
Dr. Julian Spears, co-director of
our Neurovascular Program.
St. Michael’s is known for
providing highly specialized
care for conditions affecting
brain function like aneurysm,
stroke-related diseases or
abnormal tissue growth,
which are dangerous and
life-threatening.
Full Moon
In May 2014, Well Living
House’s Second Annual
Fundraiser was held in support
of an action research centre
for indigenous infant, child
and family health. With Dr. Evan
Adams hosting, Counsel of
Grandparents member
Jan Kahehti:io Longboat
shared a full moon ceremony
and Grammy-nominated cellist,
composer and educator
Dawn Avery performed.

“Coming to Canada,
I was told the best
hospital for glaucoma
was St. Michael’s.”
Diagnosed with glaucoma as a boy in Poland, Chris had the help of
Dr. Neeru Gupta when his condition deteriorated later in life and when he
developed cataracts. Because of family history, Dr. Gupta also investigated
the eye health of Chris’s daughters. Chris now considers Dr. Gupta his family’s
guardian angel. Two generations of the Polis family, Chris and his daughter
Natalia, have now been treated at St. Michael’s.
“We will never be able to adequately
thank St. Michael’s or Dr. Gupta for the quality
of life they gave my daughter, now studying
to be a lawyer.”
Grateful patients like Chris and his daughter have had life-changing experiences
at St. Michael’s. That’s why friends like them are supporting Inspire 2018
and the new Donald and Nita Reed Ophthalmology Centre.

But we truly believe that all gifts are great – and appreciated.
We could not do it without you!

how you can help
st. michAEl’s
As St. Michael’s evolves to become Canada’s premier critical care hospital, our generous donors
and volunteers remain crucial to our success. Please help us complete our Inspire 2018 campaign
by making a gift or sharing your story. There are many ways to help:
Monthly Donor
Program
Monthly giving is easy, secure and convenient,
with donations deducted from your bank
account or credit card each month.
Gift in Thanks
Has one of our doctors, nurses or other
health care professionals made a difference
in your life? Consider letting them know
how special they are by making a gift in
their honour today.
Planned Giving
You can remember St. Michael’s in your will
with a bequest, or by making a gift of life
insurance, stock or RRSP.
A Gift in Tribute
or Memory
A gift in tribute or memory is a meaningful
and lasting way to honour someone special.
By choosing to make a gift in tribute or
memory, you will enable St. Michael’s to
continue its mission of providing exemplary
and compassionate care to all those in need.
Hold Your Own Event
Many of our generous donors show their
appreciation for the care that they or a
family member received by creating a special
event to raise funds for St. Michael’s. If you
have an idea for an event, contact our
Special Events team!
Share Your Story
Are you interested in sharing your experience
as a patient with us? By telling your story,
you can inspire others and show them
what St. Michael’s unique culture of caring
is all about.

St. Michael’s Young Leaders is a group of young
professionals between the ages of 25 and 35.
Through annual events, St. Michael’s Young
Leaders raise funds for some of the hospital’s
most urgent priorities.

BREAKING NEW GROUND
Health Minister Dr. Eric Hoskins was on hand, along with donors and friends, on April 17th 2015, as we
broke ground for our new 17-storey Peter Gilgan Patient Care Tower to care for critically ill patients
and renovations that will nearly double the size of the Slaight Family Emergency Department.
Construction of the tower is expected to take three years, during which time the hospital will remain
open. Dr. Hoskins with shovel in hand said that St. Michael’s is “the heart and soul of the city.
This bold redevelopment project will touch the lives of many. This project is visionary.”

St. Michael’s Foundation could not operate without the time and
talents of hundreds of dedicated volunteers – from longstanding Board
members to new Young Leaders, Gala Chairs and everyone in between,
we couldn’t do this without you! On behalf of the patients, staff and

“St. Mike’s is where
you want to be.
You’ll get the best
care there.
You’ll fly in, but you’ll walk out.” That’s what the air ambulance paramedic told
police sergeant Kelly when her cruiser was hit head-on by a pick-up truck.
The accident broke both her legs, her wrist and several bones in her neck and
back, injuries that could have kept her in a wheelchair for the rest of her life.
At St. Michael’s, Dr. Michael McKee and his team got her back on the road to
recovery. The consideration shown by physicians and staff meant she never felt
alone and never had to wonder about the next steps in her recovery.
“I’m blessed that I was taken to
St. Mike’s. It’s a world-class hospital
with amazing staff.”
Airlifted to St. Michael’s, Kelly knows the benefit of receiving expert care.
Donors to our Inspire 2018 campaign who, like Kelly, have been treated here are
making sure that St. Michael’s is equipped to serve its patients into the future.
