Traditions of Caring
Fall 2013
In Philanthropic Support of:
St. Joseph’s Hospital Arnot Ogden Medical Center Ira Davenport Memorial Hospital
Keuka Foundation Surpasses Capital
Campaign Goal
For more than 100 years, Ira Davenport Memorial
Hospital has faithfully served central Steuben County.
Especially important to its services is the Dr. Donald F.
Coon Emergency Department. When minutes to care
count, in situations like heart attack, stroke or trauma – this
is the nearest facility to provide care and stabilization, and
if needed, transfer by ambulance or helicopter for specialty
care at a tertiary facility.
Since its last upgrade in 1999, standards of care have
changed and there has been a significant increase in
the number of patients seeking care. For these reasons,
hospital leadership determined that expansion and
modernization were needed.
Planning, design and construction began in 2011 and in
spring of 2013 the project was completed. The new unit
added three new treatment areas which has doubled the
number of exam rooms, one of which was designed for
our pediatric patients. Additional upgrades were made to
the ambulance entrance, mobile MRI station and a new
front lobby and façade. Patient wait time is reduced and
care is provided
with upgraded
equipment and
modern facilities
that model the
latest standards of
care.
Bud Meade, Chairman of Keuka Foundation performs the ceremonial
ribbon cutting, assisted by administration and community leaders.
To enable the additions and upgrades, the foundation
board conducted a highly successful capital campaign. The
original goal of $1 million was surpassed reaching nearly
$1.8 million in contributions. The Children’s Trust’s gift of
$400,000, the Taylor Foundation’s gift of $500,000 and
the Meade Foundation’s gift of $500,000 given in memory
of Mr. Joseph F. Meade, Jr. all propelled the campaign to
exceed the $1million goal.
In recognition of their generous gift, Mr. Meade’s voluntary
board leadership and his lifelong friendship with Dr. Coon,
the new Emergency Department has been renamed
the Donald F. Coon and Joseph F. Meade, Jr. Emergency
Department. It is a fitting tribute to those who have
dedicated their work to improve the lives of others.
In the new lobby
area, Jim Watson,
President and CEO of
Ira Davenport Hospital
extends his thanks to
participants.

To Our Friends
Our hospitals need to grow and change to address the healthcare
needs of the thousands of people in the many communities we serve.
We accomplish this by combining new programs and services, with
the latest technology and highly qualified caregivers – physicians,
nurses and allied healthcare workers. But, we can’t do it alone –
philanthropy plays an important part, enabling the Arnot Health
organization to attain its mission and vision.
We are grateful for the support of our many donors and hope they
understand their vital part in making a difference in the lives we touch
and in shaping the future of healthcare at Arnot Ogden Medical
Center, St. Joseph’s Hospital and Ira Davenport Hospital.
“Traditions of Caring” is designed to keep you informed about the
advancements made because of your generosity and as a way to
express our gratitude.
Donors in the Driver’s Seat
With today’s high cost of providing patient care, hospitals often are not
able to purchase necessary equipment, programs and services needed to
continue to offer the most technologically advanced healthcare for their
community. Your charitable contributions allow us to reach this breadth
of care that otherwise would not be available in our community.
With your contributions, Arnot Health Foundations set up numerous
funds to support the mission. Some funds are restricted funds. These
funds can only be used for a specific purpose or project for one hospital
or all three hospitals based on the donor’s wishes.
Unrestricted funds can be used to support advanced technology,
equipment, facilities, services or priority projects strategic to the mission.
We assure you that your contributions will be used for the hospital,
service or program you wish to support. You determine where and for
what your donations will be used. We welcome your questions regarding
gift opportunities.

Grant Awards
In 2012, Arnot Health was the recipient
of a $3.5 million HEAL NY grant which
is being used to build a new service
– a Transitional Care Unit on the St.
Joseph Hospital campus. While less
intensive than inpatient hospital care,
this subacute care unit will provide a
homelike setting for recovering hospital
patients who are not yet well enough to
return home. The development of this
unit adds a critical component to the
levels of care we provide our patients.
Among the number of grants awarded $2,250 from Hitachi Metals
Automotive Components to support
by local organizations in 2013 are:
the purchase of a neonatal incubator.
$50,000 from The Community
$11,928 from The Fraternal Order

Celebrate a Legacy
Anthony “Tony” J. Cooper, Arnot Health’s

Tiers of southern New York and northern
Pennsylvania.

St. Joseph’s Hospital
Spring Appeal
“Ask and it shall be given to you.”
St. Joseph’s Hospital Skilled Nursing
Unit provides quality, compassionate
care to our older adult population who
require assistance in their day-to-day
living. One important feature of the unit
is furniture to enable the residents’ care,
in particular “recliner/lift chairs” that
assist patients as they rise from a seated
position.
Because these chairs are heavily used,
the unit’s director requested support
from St. Joseph’s Foundation for
replacements … in turn the foundation
asked you … and you gave!
Through your generosity $12,000 was
raised which enabled us to replace a
number of the chairs. These not only
improve the quality of patient care but
also enable the work of our dedicated
caregivers.
From our patients and staff … many
thanks!
22nd Annual Children’s Miracle Network
Golf Tournament
Golfers took to the greens on Friday

day of fun and friendship in support of Arnot
Health’s Children’s Miracle Network.
This year’s event, chaired by Ernie Hartman, a

Foundation Board, enjoyed the participation
of 33 golf teams.
A “shout out” to Ernie’s committee – Greg
Martin, Gary Clingerman, Kelly Williams, John
Balon, Wes Blauvelt, Dustin Hewit & Rodney
Kremer. Their efforts, combined with the
generous support of sponsors, vendors and
golfers helped to raise $35,342, nearly 50%
more than the 2012 tournament.
