C e rem o n y
Memorial Health Care System celebrated the
topping out of its North Tower on Tuesday,
June 4, 2013. The event marked the beginning
of the facility’s final year of construction.
A topping out ceremony is a tradition which
migrated to America with European craftsman.
The ceremony commemorates the moment
when the highest structural point in the building construction has been attained. To celebrate
this event, the last steel beam is signed and
hoisted into place. Memorial employees, volunteers, donors and others signed their names on
two beams before construction workers hooked
them to a crane and lifted them to the top of
the seven-story structure.
Andrew McGill, vice president of strategic planning and business development for Memorial,
said that Memorial’s aim is to accommodate
the community’s needs with the new building.
“It’s a milestone for us. What you see here is a
response to what the community told us they
needed.”
The North Tower construction is a component of Memorial’s Master Facility Plan, an
expansion and renovation project that will
improve and update Memorial’s facilities. The
300,000-square-foot North Tower is scheduled
to open in July 2014. It will primarily focus on
cardiac services featuring imaging, catherization labs, and a short stay unit. The new tower
will also feature 96 private patient rooms, a
cardiac health and wellness center, and a new
chapel, accessible for patients and families
belonging to all faith traditions.

Ho sp i tal S af et y S co r e
Memorial Health Care System was honored
with an “A” Hospital Safety Score by The Leapfrog Group, an independent national nonprofit
run by employers and other large purchasers of
health benefits. The A score was awarded in the
latest update to the Hospital
Safety ScoreSM, the A, B, C, D or F scores assigned to U.S. hospitals based on preventable
medical errors, injuries accidents, and infections. The Hospital Safety Score was compiled
under the guidance of the nation’s leading
experts on patient safety and is designed to
give the public information they can use to
protect themselves and their families.
“Memorial’s dedication to patient-centered
care is the motivating force that produces high
marks in patient safety and clinical excellence,”
says Jim Hobson, CEO of Memorial Health
Care System. “Our physicians, clinical and
administrative staff, volunteers and board
members work together to create a place of
healing for our community, and we are honored to receive an “A” in this vital component of
health care delivery.”
“Hospitals like this that earn an A have demonstrated their commitment to their patients and
their community,” said Leah Binder, president
and CEO of The Leapfrog Group. “I congratulate
Memorial Health Care System for its safety
excellence, and look forward to the day when
all hospitals will match this standard.”

Memorial Hospital received the American Heart
Association’s Mission: Lifeline® Silver Receiving
Quality Achievement Award. The award recognizes Memorial’s commitment and success in
implementing an exceptional standard of care
for heart attack patients.
Hospitals participating in Mission: Lifeline are
part of a system that makes sure STEMI (a type
of heart attack) patients get the correct care as
quickly as possible. Mission: Lifeline focuses on
improving the system of care for STEMI patients
as well as improving care for all heart attack
patients. The national goal is 90 minutes from
the time a person comes through the door of
the emergency department to the time that a
patient is receiving a catheterization. Memorial
far exceeds that goal with an average time of
45.9 minutes.
“Memorial Hospital is dedicated to making
our cardiac unit among the best in the country
and the American Heart Association’s Mission:
Lifeline program is helping us accomplish that
by making it easier for the physicians and clinical staff to improve the outcomes of our cardiac
patients,” said Eric Conn, M.D., cardiologist with
The Chattanooga Heart Institute at Memorial.
“We’re pleased to be recognized for our dedication and achievements in cardiac care. It takes
an entire team of EMS workers, emergency
department staff, other clinical staff and physicians to make this goal attainable.”

Memorial Hospital has received the American
College of Cardiology Foundation’s NCDR
ACTION Registry–GWTG Platinum Performance
Achievement Award for 2012 – one of only 164
hospitals nationwide to do so. The award recognizes Memorial’s commitment and success
in implementing a higher standard of care for
heart attack patients, and signifies that Memorial Hospital has reached an aggressive goal
of treating these patients to standard levels of
care as outlined by the American College of
Cardiology/American Heart Association clinical
guidelines and recommendations. “We are
honored to receive this award recognizing the
success of our efforts to continuously improve
heart care at Memorial,” said Eric H. Conn, MD,
FACC, a cardiologist on staff at Memorial.
“The national benchmark for treating heart attack patients, “door-to-balloon” time, is 90 minutes from the time a patient arrives at the door
of the emergency room until flow in the artery
is restored. Memorial’s average time of 45.9
minutes is by far the fastest time in the region
and one of the fastest in the nation. To achieve
this time requires tremendous teamwork.”

Message
From Foundation Board
ch a i r , a l e x i s b o g o
Thanks to the extraordinary generosity of the thousands of people
throughout our region, almost $7 million dollars was contributed to
Memorial Health Care System Foundation this fiscal year to improve high
quality health care for our citizens.
This year also saw the conclusion of the Inspired Heroes Campaign
for Memorial with more than 1,500 individuals, companies and
foundations contributing $15.5 million dollars. These funds contributed
by Chattanoogans have been matched 20 times over by Catholic
Health Initiatives to make the largest regional impact on healthcare our
generation has ever seen. The renovation and expansion of Memorial
and Memorial Hospital Hixson will ensure we have healthcare facilities,
equipment and physicians that rival any major hospital throughout the
country. This project represents the largest expansion in Memorial’s 60
year history, and it will truly transform the delivery of medical care for
generations to come.
The community’s support also speaks to the great work being done
every day by the men and women at Memorial – doctors, nurses,
administrators and a remarkable group of volunteers. They are
responsible for the excellent reputation for compassionate care that
brings people to Memorial for their health care.
Thanks to all of you who have supported Memorial and the Memorial
Health Care System Foundation. We hope we can continue to count on
your support in the years to come.

Members of International Brotherhood of

this spring with Memorial CEO Jim Hobson and
Memorial Foundation Board Chair Alexis Bogo, to
present them with a gift for the new surgery center
at Memorial. The beautiful lobby in Memorial’s
new South Tower, home to the surgery
program, was funded by their generous gift.
As the group sat down for lunch before the
presentation, many of them shared about a
personal experience they had at Memorial as a
patient, while others shared an experience that
a family member or other loved one had during
an illness. Each of the story tellers expressed
both appreciation for the values and quality of
care Memorial provides and the sentiment of
how important it is for them to contribute to the
future of the health care system.

In November 2012, Memorial Foundation
hosted a press conference to announce the Buz
Standefer Lung Center at Memorial, named in
loving memory by the family of Mr. Charles A.
“Buz” Standefer, who passed away in 2011 after
a battle with lung cancer. His widow, Barbie,
said when she heard the announcement that
Memorial’s current expansion would include
a comprehensive lung care center, she knew
she wanted to do something special, and she
made the lead gift toward the project, citing
the compassionate care Memorial provided her
husband in his final days as a significant reason
for her decision to make the donation.
On Wednesday, June 26, 2013, physicians and
medical staff, along with Memorial leaders
and associates, blessed the new center. That
same evening, invited guests arrived to a space
beautifully designed in soothing blues with
hardwood surfaces, textured glass and chrome
accents throughout. An abstract sculpture of
a pendulum is a meaningful addition to the
space, honoring Buz’s lifelong interest in clocks.
Memorial CEO Jim Hobson started the
evening’s program with a few words about the
history of Memorial and the importance of the
lung center to the future of health care in this
region. Carlos Baleeiro, M.D. spoke about the
dream physicians had to bring this center to
Chattanooga and the significance of having this
kind of care now available. Barbie Standefer
finished the program with a personal, heart-felt
statement about what the lung center means
to her family and how proud Buz would have
been to be associated with the project. With
screening, interventional radiology, pulmonary
rehabilitation and a bronchoscopy suite
featuring the latest ultrasound technology,
the Buz Standefer Lung Center will coordinate
seamless care for lung patients.
The Foundation is grateful for the support of
Barbie Standefer to name the center, as well as
all of our donors to the project, including Mr.
and Mrs. Bob Shaw, Rich and Barbara Kramer,
the Schmissrauter Family Foundation, Hilda
and Lee Murray and many others.

On Friday, July 26, 2013, donors and leaders
to Memorial’s Inspired Heroes Campaign for
Memorial gathered at the Chattanooga Golf
& Country Club to celebrate the successful
completion of the multi-million dollar capital
campaign to support the expansion of
Memorial’s campuses.
When the doors to the dining room were
opened to the crowd for dinner, exclamations
of astonishment rippled through the hall
as people got the first glimpses of the
transformation. Inside, the ceiling, walls and
stage had been draped with sheer curtains,
and soft blue and white lights lit up the walls
and the tables. From the stage, twinkle lights
sparkled against the black backdrop, as if they
were the stars in the night sky.
The evening was a tribute to the stars of the
Heroes campaign, the men and women whose
time and generosity brought much-needed
resources to Memorial Health Care System. The
five part campaign included three components
that have been entirely funded by donations
from the community – the new infusion center,
the new lung center, and a new Chapel that
is scheduled to open in 2014. Gifts made to
the surgery and cardiac centers will make
it possible to include additional cuttingedge technology and health education and
prevention programs to these areas of care.
Memorial CEO Jim Hobson opened the
program by welcoming the guests and inviting
hospital board member and Chapel co-chair
John Boxell, M.D. to give the invocation. During
dinner, campaign Chairmen Zan Guerry and
Bill Stacy, Ph.D. shared personal remarks about
8
their involvement with the campaign, the honor
it has been for them to support Memorial in
this way, and the importance of the campaign
efforts to the residents of Chattanooga. Dr. Stacy
passionately expressed the feelings he had
when he realized that his gifts would be used to
not only help his friends and family, but to also
help people that he will never know.
Foundation Board Chair Holly Harwell and
Foundation President Jennifer Nicely closed
the program with a special presentation of
the Foundation’s annual Humanitarian Award.
Historically, the award has been presented to
one volunteer and to one physician to recognize
their philanthropic contributions to Memorial as
well as the greater Chattanooga community. This
year, the Foundation honored the entire Heroes
leadership team by presenting each of them
with the Humanitarian Award.
After the presenting of the awards and the
conclusion of the evening’s program, the party
got underway when The Unexpected Boys took
to the stage for their own tribute to the music of
Franki Valli and the Four Seasons, Beach Boys
and other classics of the 60’s and 70’s.

The support you have given to the Memorial Health Care System
Foundation this year has been overwhelming!
The spirit of our donors, volunteers, board members, and physicians
inspires us and makes it possible for the Foundation to have a
significant impact on excellence at Memorial. The world of healthcare
is changing at an unbelievable pace and in such uncertain times, the
hospital looks more and more to the foundation for support garnered
from the community.
Each and every day I have the privilege of working with donors who
give from their hearts to benefit others. In most circumstances those
gifts are to thank caregivers for compassionate care provided or even
a life saved. Contributions go directly back to the work of the hospital
and will ultimately help so many others, often people our donors will
never even meet.
Almost 2,000 gifts were made to Memorial Foundation this year and
every one of those gifts – large or small - is meaningful. Thank you
for the gifts of time and treasure you have shared with Memorial and
those we serve this year!
Best wishes,
Jennifer Nicely

Doctors’ Day and
Caring Spirit Campaigns
Patient Quotes
“I was in MICU bed 1, and Alison was my nurse. She saved my life
when she found a blood clot in my leg. They had to do surgery right
away, but my wife wasn’t at the hospital to give consent, so Alison called
her. It is because of her that I’m still alive and also have my leg. Please
thank her for me.”
“Ashley was my husband’s nurse during most of his stay. She worked to
make my husband as comfortable as she could. She found little things
to help – extra pillows, dimmed lights, warm blankets, even a cup
of ice water for me – she quietly checked on us without disturbing
his naps. She didn’t have to do any of these extra things, but when she
saw my husband’s discomfort, she went the extra mile to help him.
Her compassionate heart impressed us so much! ”
Offering a hand to hold…giving a reassuring smile…going an extra
step…sharing an encouraging word. Simple gestures of kindness often mean the most to us. Doctor’s Day and Caring Spirit are designed
to honor a Memorial Health Care System physician, nurse, volunteer
or staff member who has made a difference in the life of a patient by
going above and beyond what is expected of him or her.
Caring Spirit and Doctors’ Day are part of the Foundation’s annual
giving program. The importance of annual giving is ever increasing
as Memorial Health Care System expands markets and services.
There are many opportunities available for those wishing to make
a thoughtful annual gift, including joining the Friends of Memorial
Society with a gift of $100 or more, tribute and memorial giving,
or employee giving through MAGIC. These gifts enable Memorial
to provide care for the underserved, seek innovative solutions to
complex health problems and make state-of-the-science technology
available to all patients.
Cumulative total for these programs combined: $71,700
“I suffered a heart attack at work and was transported to Memorial
Hospital. As I arrived, I met Dr. Ledford and his staff, and within
minutes they found the problem and inserted a stent. I am grateful for
Dr. Ledford’s clinical as well as communication skills, as he kept me
informed afterwards of exactly what my situation was in such a caring
way. As a matter of fact, the whole nursing staff truly lived up to the
reputation that Memorial rewards their employees.”
“I was very sick and upset because I didn’t know what was wrong or
what to do. Christy was one of my nurses. She went above and beyond
to make my stay a good experience. When it was time for me to go
home, Christy said, ‘I’m glad for you but I’m going to miss you.’
Nursing is not only medical; caring and understanding makes it go so
much further. She definitely made me feel like she was concerned and
really cared about me. She was a ray of sunshine.”
“After 3 trips to E.R., heart doctor, and family physician, Dr. Faires
took the time to listen and check past visits to Memorial. She with Dr.
Hetzel did a super job of helping me. I truly appreciate their concerns
and patients well being!”
“My husband came to Memorial’s ER for a herniated disc. Tom in
pre-op took over his care when we left the ER. Realizing my husband’s
pain, he made a special effort to work with the anesthesiologist ahead
of surgery to try and make my husband as comfortable as possible in
pre-op. It was evident that he was working as hard as he could to do
anything and everything in his power to help us. It was very comforting
to know that we were not alone.”

with her family.
MAGIC
MAGIC is Memorial Associates Giving
to Improve our Community.
Since its inception in 2003, Memorial associates have given
over $2M through contributions to MAGIC.
As Memorial strives to improve the health of our community,
the role of MHCS associates is crucial. If we are to continue to
maintain our level of excellence, we must constantly seek ways
to ensure a strong, secure future.
A committee of associates advises the Foundation on distribution of the MAGIC funds. In the past, MAGIC funds have
helped to build up the MaryEllen Locher Breast Center, bring a
dedicated breast MRI to Chattanooga, create a healing garden
for MICU patients, facilitate the application process for MAGNET
nursing certification, and much, much more.
“Memorial associates are so generous, giving not only of
their financial resources, but also of themselves, everyday
they come to work,” says MAGIC Chair, Melissa Roden. “It is
their dedication to quality patient care that makes Memorial
the hospital of choice for so many in our community.”

2012-2013 YEAR IN REVIEW
m a g i c f a m i l y N i gh t
On July 13, 2012 the Tennessee Aquarium opened
its doors after hours for Memorial associates and
their families for a special reception, hosted by
Memorial Foundation, to honor associates who
donate to the health care system through the
MAGIC program. 350 guests came out to enjoy the
River Journey and the new Ocean Journey exhibits.
Sodexo caterers served cool ice cream sundaes
and root beer float refreshments. The squeals of
delighted children soon filled the exhibit halls as
they explored the aquatic life of sea horses, turtles,
river giants, snakes, penguins and even butterflies.
Each building had a special exhibit for guests to
“pet” the fish, which proved to be popular sites
throughout the evening.
Associates and their families who donate to
Memorial Foundation through the MAGIC
program were invited to a special recognition
event at the Tennessee Aquarium in July 2012.

Memorial Auxiliary
and Volunteer Services
Memorial Auxiliary volunteers
marked 60 years of service in 2012-2013 with a special Diamond Anniversary celebration, new uniforms, introduction of another CD of Melodies
from Memorial,* and outstanding contributions of time and funds. As major
construction projects brought changes at both Glenwood and Hixson hospitals,
volunteers were amazingly flexible in fulfilling their responsibilities.
In addition to Auxiliary members, Memorial Health Care System’s exceptional team of more than 500 active volunteers includes American Red Cross
members, independent volunteers and students. Last year volunteers provided
80,079 hours of service in 80 different locations throughout the system and
for special Memorial sponsored community projects.
In considering new uniforms for the Auxiliary, the goal was to introduce new
style options while having all members wearing the same color. Teal, one of
Memorial Health Care System’s identifying colors, was chosen, and members
now make a great branding statement as a unified team serving Memorial.
Volunteers from the American Red Cross wear their distinctive uniform known
around the world.
For more information about volunteer opportunities at Memorial, contact
Volunteer Services at (423) 495-8610.
*Auxiliary volunteer musicians Jay Craven, clarinetist, and Jim Palmour, classical
guitarist and vocalist, perform on ”Memorable Melodies from Memorial,” the sixth
CD in a series that raises funds for patient care.

2012-2013 YEAR IN REVIEW
I n sp i r e d H e r o e s
In addition to giving of their time, the Memorial Auxiliary raises funds
to enhance patient care, and this year they joined the Inspired Heroes
campaign to leave a lasting legacy in the new facilities. They pledged
$150,000 for the “helping hands” stained glass window in the new
chapel and to furnish a lovely family waiting room in the new Surgery
Center. As an encouragement to persons with cancer, the Auxiliary also
gave $15,000 toward a beautiful weekend retreat for newly diagnosed
cancer patients and loved ones. The $15,000 Auxiliary Scholarship
Fund assisted 12 students in health related fields of study, and several
tribute gifts were given to honor loved ones.
This photo is one of the four
original stained glass windows
from the Sisters of Charity of
Nazareth Chapel in Nazareth, KY to be placed in the
new North Tower Chapel. It
measures 13 feet tall and 4.5
feet wide. The Auxiliary chose
this window because they felt
it represented the volunteers
mission of helping hands and
reaching out to serve others.
Auxiliary volunteers modeling the new uniform
in front of the naming plaque in the new Surgery
Family Waiting Room (from L) are: Willie
Harvey, Wanda Baker, Carol McCamish,
Barbara Kramer and Rich Kramer.

proceeds from the 5th annual Danette
Henry memorial golf tournament.
R oll f o r a Cu re
Unforgotten RA and Southern Souls MC joined forces last year for the
4th Annual Roll for a Cure, sponsored by Southern Souls MC, to benefit
the MaryEllen Locher Breast Centers at Memorial. More than 100 riders
participated in the event, held Saturday, September 29, 2012. The allday bike ride raised more than $11,000 for the outreach and treatment
programs provided by the MEL Breast Centers. The day held special
meaning for the behind-the-scenes organizers – 4 days before the event,
one of their own was diagnosed with breast cancer at a MEL Breast Center.
“We believe in what the MaryEllen Locher Breast Center does for our
community, now more than ever, as our friend needs the treatment
and support it provides to beat this disease,” says Unforgotten RA Vice
President Ed Roberts. “Partnering with Southern Souls MC opened doors
to make this year the most successful yet for this event and legitimize it
so we can be even more successful in the years to come.” Tim Hudson,
representative for Southern Souls Motorcycle Club adds, “The fight
against cancer is number one on our organization’s list of fundraising
causes, and the group is committed to keeping our charitable dollars
local. The partnership of Southern Souls MC with Unforgotten RA on
this event was a natural fit because of our shared interest in the
MaryEllen Locher Breast Center.”
Jennifer Nicely (center) receives the proceeds from the 4th Annual
Roll for a Cure, benefitting the MaryEllen Locher Breast Center at
Memorial, from event committee members from Unforgotten RA
and Southern Souls MC.

PINK Night at the Lookouts, Friday July 20, 2012 at AT&T Field, was a special
evening for our local players. Each team member wore special pink jerseys that
were featured in a silent auction during game time. Other items of interest
that were auctioned off during the evening included a team autographed pink
baseball bat. Proceeds of more than $1,000 went to benefit the MaryEllen
Locher Breast Centers at Memorial.

A corporate sponsorship to one of the Foundation’s annual events
gives your business recognition as an organization that gives back
to the community. Your company’s name and logo can appear on
invitations and programs, and in newspaper and magazine pages,
including Inspire, Memorial’s publication that goes out to 160,000
homes. A corporate sponsorship also has a lasting impact on the
community by making events such as Pink! successful enough to
bring back every year and provide funds for programs and services
at Memorial.

Dear Friends,
We have watched with anxious anticipation as the campuses at
Memorial Hospital and Memorial Hospital Hixson have transformed to
meet the growing healthcare needs of our region.
The expansion and renovation of Memorial Hospital Hixson is quickly
nearing completion. The additions of the Dr. Noel C. Hunt III Intensive
Care Unit and the GI and bronchoscopy lab along with the expansion
of the emergency department will ensure our neighbors north of the
river have access to exceptional facilities along with excellent patientcentered care.
June 2013 was a time of joy and reflection as we paused to celebrate
several milestones on the Memorial Hospital campus. A topping out
ceremony was held to mark the moment when the last steel structural
beam in the heart and vascular center North Tower was hoisted into
place. Hundreds of community members attended the open house
of Memorial’s South Tower. An entrée to surgical services, the tower
houses an 18-bed cardiovascular intensive care unit; eight stateof-the-science operating rooms with four specifically designed for
cardiovascular surgery and four designed for orthopedic surgery; an
expansive waiting area for family and friends; and a new central sterile
supply area to meet the needs of the southeast region. The opening
of the Buz Standefer Lung Center brings together technology and
expertise in a compassionate atmosphere to create a place where
patients and families with lung diseases can be embraced and guided
to early diagnosis and the best possible treatment.
Our donors, physicians, volunteers and associates have worked
together to ensure that Memorial is the regional referral center of
choice and that our patients receive the best possible care when faced
with a health challenge.
Thank you for your unwavering support of the Memorial Health Care
System Foundation and the ministry of Memorial.
Sincerely,
James M. Hobson, FACHE
