“My whole life has been Mercy.
Where your heart is, you’re going to give
your money. Being a part of this has
been my pleasure and my privilege and
I’m glad I could help.
It has been incredible watching the
new building go up. I’m very proud of
the Sisters of Mercy because it certainly
would have been easier to build this hospital in the county with a lot more land
and room than to build it in the inner
city. But they’ve always been committed
to serving all the people in the city and
I admire them for that.
I thought Mercy couldn’t get better,
but I’ve seen every year how it has grown
and improved, and under the leadership
of Tom Mullen and Sister Helen Amos
it’s just fantastic. It’s going to be like the
new building: it’s going to be tops.”

The Theory of Caring
Over a year ago, the Nursing Division
at Mercy adopted Jean Watson’s Theory
of Caring as a way to nurture their
caring profession. Jean Watson, Ph.D.,
is Distinguished Professor of Nursing
and Chair of Caring Science at the
University of Colorado. Several of
Mercy’s nurses have attended seminars
led by her, read her many books, and
even met her in person. They are inspired
by her teachings in which spirituality is
a fundamental theme of this relationship-centered theory of caring.
In a world where modern health
care relies on technology as much as
personal touch, nurses often struggle
The Ten Caritas
The Ten Caritas form a major element of Jean Watson’s Theory of Caring. The
word “Caritas” originates from the Greek vocabulary, meaning to cherish and
to give special loving attention. Over several months, each Caritas listed below
has been introduced to Mercy’s nursing staff, along with events and activities to
illustrate their meaning.
1. Embrace altruistic values and practice
loving kindness with self and others.
2. Instill faith and hope and honor others.
3. Be sensitive to self and others by nurturing individual beliefs and practices.
4. Develop “helping-trusting-caring”
relationships.
5. Promote and accept positive and
negative feelings as you authentically
listen to another’s story.
6. Use creative scientific problem-solving
methods for caring decision making.
pa g e 8
to preserve their caring practice and
their connection to each patient.
Upholding Watson’s caring theory
encourages nurses to practice the art of
caring, to provide compassion to ease
suffering, and to promote healing and
dignity. Applying these caring values in
nursing practice is not only essential to
the health of each patient, but also fundamental for nurses to find meaning in
their demanding work and personal lives.
7. Share teaching and learning that
addresses individual needs and
comprehension styles.
8. Create a healing environment for
the physical and spiritual self which
respects human dignity.
9. Assist with basic physical, emotional,
and spiritual human needs.
10. Open to mystery and allow miracles
to enter.

" To explore the eighth Caritas,
to create a healing environment, nurses
were invited to walk the complex
patterns of a large, temporarily installed
labyrinth. In a quiet room away from
the hustle and bustle of the hospital,
they could pause, reflect and still their
minds. One nurse wrote about her
experience before returning to her
patients: “With the hectic pace we
keep, this was refreshing. The peace
I felt was overwhelming!”

Albert J. Polito, M.D.
Each year, many of Mercy’s physicians
generously participate in The Mercy
Society by making gifts of $1,000 or more
to the annual fund. They join other loyal
and thoughtful friends of Mercy in providing financial support to help us heal and
serve the people who come to us in need.
Dr. Polito is one of several physicians
who, since The Mercy Society was created
in 1999, have gently encouraged their
peers to become members of The Mercy
Society. Thanks to his leadership, the
number of Mercy’s physicians participating in this annual campaign continues to
grow. All members of The Mercy Society
will be recognized on the video donor wall
to be unveiled in The Mary Catherine
Bunting Center in December 2010.
JoAnn DeCesaris and Beth Lennon
Tragically, both of these remarkable young women lost
a parent to cancer. In 2002, JoAnn’s father, Geaton
DeCesaris, Jr., and Beth’s mother, Maureen Prout, were
each diagnosed with cancer. Geaton passed away in
2006 and Maureen in 2007. In memory of their loved
ones, Beth and JoAnn decided to join the effort to raise
funds for cancer research, awareness and patient care.
Together, they have raised over $770,000 for cancer-related causes. Mercy Medical Center
is honored to be a beneficiary of their generosity, receiving grants for patient needs,
research and state-of-the-art technology for the Institute for Cancer Care at Mercy. Beth
and JoAnn are proud co-chairs of their 8th annual golf tournament, to be held on June 25,
2010 at the Twin Shields Golf Club in Dunkirk, Maryland. For information, please visit

Power over Pain
What do you do when you have a headache or a
sore muscle? The answer for most of us is to take a dose
of over-the-counter medicine and wait for the discomfort to
pass. What would happen if your pain just wouldn’t go away,
no matter what you tried? For chronic pain sufferers this is
a common question, and there’s no simple answer.
At The Center for Interventional Pain Medicine at Mercy,
led by David N. Maine, M.D., a special technique is providing
much needed relief to patients. “Many of my patients have
lived in terrible pain for months, if not years, and have tried
all manner of treatments without good results. Thanks to
new treatment options, it’s exciting and incredibly gratifying
to know that we can help them get back to an enjoyable life.”
One such patient is Keith Gayler, 39, a Rogers Forge resident who suffers from a genetic inflammatory disorder that
causes arthritis. “Since I was a teenager, I had bouts of pain
in my back but thought little of it. Then, about 18 months
ago it was suddenly incredibly painful all the time,” he explains.
He was soon diagnosed with the disorder and began his
odyssey to find the best way to treat the pain. “If I had to rate
my daily pain on a scale of 1 to 10, a typical day would have
been at least a 7, if not higher. Taking prescription painkillers
helped a bit but put me into a mental fog. Between the pain
and the medications, I couldn't think, I couldn't read, and I
certainly couldn't work.”
After trying all kinds of treatment including medications,
acupuncture, massage, meditation and more, Keith eventually
found his way to Dr. Maine. “The first day I met him, he told
me he was glad I had come to see him and that he thought he
might be able to help me. And he did.”
A variety of techniques were used to diagnose the source
of Keith’s pain. “We determined Keith’s principal discomfort
was arising from the sacroiliac joint,” explains Dr. Maine.
These joints connect the bottom of the spine to the pelvis,
and each one has several nerves and ligaments. Keith’s case
was ideal for a procedure called radiofrequency ablation
(RFA) of the sacroiliac neural tissue, which we’ve been using
at Mercy with incredible results,” he continues. “This is a
pa g e 12
PICTURED ABOVE (from left): David N. Maine, M.D.; Keith Gayler
fairly new technique and only a handful of doctors are using
RFA to treat pain originating from the sacroiliac joint.”
During the RFA procedure, a probe is inserted along
the nerves that supply the painful joint. This is done under
the guidance of live imaging. Once the probe is properly
positioned, radiofrequency energy is delivered in a controlled
manner to disrupt the nerves related to the pain of the
sacroiliac joint. “About 70% of patients who are treated
with RFA for sacroiliac joint pain respond very well,” says
Dr. Maine. “It can provide long-term results for patients
like Keith, who have a chronic condition.”
“Radiofrequency ablation helped get my life back,” Keith
says. “Not all that long ago, I wondered whether my life would
be livable. With help from Dr. Maine, it is. Now, I can focus
on healing, getting back to work and doing all the things I
love. And more importantly, I can help look after my newborn twins. This is truly a time to celebrate and be thankful.”

“In the care of the sick
great tenderness above all things.”
On March 30, 2010, Mercy Medical Center celebrated National
Doctors’ Day by inviting patients and friends to make gifts in
honor of the physicians who have touched their lives. By doing
so, we celebrate not only the compassionate care our physicians provide to their patients, but their commitment to the
mission and values of the Sisters of Mercy.
Hundreds of patients and friends of Mercy accepted this
invitation, collectively honoring nearly 100 of Mercy’s doctors.
The Sisters of Mercy and Board of Trustees join these generous
donors in recognizing and thanking all of Mercy’s doctors for
carrying forward our tradition of excellence.

and respect, to all who come to us for help.

who have given $50,000 or more to Mercy Medical Center during their lifetime; or who
have included Mercy Medical Center in their estate plans. Also included are the many
volunteers who help Mercy with a variety of philanthropic endeavors.
All members of the Circle of Mercy will be invited to exclusive events to celebrate the
grand opening of The Mary Catherine Bunting Center at Mercy in December 2010. Please

Mercy in your estate plans. To learn more about how you can become a member of the
